They showed up in March, 18 months after finishing chemo. It was a surprise. Our family has been so very lucky, we are all still working and no-one has tested positive. Our social lives have been very quiet but then again I didn't mind not having to get together with the in-laws. They probably feel ...
.....BTW, I consider all of you as part of my team. This is so true. Thank you for bringing it up. Just as a side note on the subject of having your surgeon on your team, I thought once my surgery was done I wouldn't see the surgeon again. Wrong. Not only will she do my colonoscopies, she wants to ...
"Daughter of Family G" by Ami McKay Just released two weeks ago, it's a biography and a memoir all at the same time and a truly excellent read. It tells the history of how Lynch Syndrome was discovered and expands on a documentary that Ami created 15+ years ago. https://www.cbc.ca/radio/th...
Wife2jeff, one thing that hasn't been mentioned yet is how long it may take your husband to get back to normal energy levels.

Hi Stu, I tried Imgur first but had the same problem as Lee did with it not recognising the photo even after resizing. So I used CRguy's recommendation imgbb.com. It's easy, but a word of caution - You need to create an account to upload any photos so if you are concerned at all about privacy be car...

Here she is chilling on her couch yesterday morning after spending the night protecting the place from night time critters. From inside of course. It seems Tiny Pic isn't working an...
My father passed 21 years ago on June 10th. His service was on the 13th. My mother clipped some blossoms from the peony in their garden to put in his casket. 4 months later she moved so that she was 5 minutes away from me instead of 90. The peony came with her and was planted in my front garden. Eve...
