Does anyone communicate with her outside of here? She hasn't been here since Sept 18th. Hopefully only taking a break from CC.

Re: midlifemom where are you?
Hi All,
My DH and MLM share both local oncologist and MSKCC oncologist and we have been blessed to meet MLM several times and share treatment info.
She has been our inspiration and compassionate and intelligent guide over these past months.
Please keep her at the top of your prayer list at this time as she is on hospice.
I write this with a breaking heart as I still pray for miracles for all of us.
Mary

Let me reach out to her husband and I will let you know what I can find and if we can get some encouragement to her. I have always been able to count on her to be among the first to reply here with always valuable information and selfless help. I would love to be able to be the one to help her in any way here. I am certain my DH owes his current health to her and the rest of you and will be forever grateful.
