I'm sending my thoughts and lots of positive energy your way. Stay strong and work towards getting healthy.
My mom beat cancer and a lot of it I truly believe is due to her positive attitude and determination not to let cancer beat her.
Take an active role in your treatment with your doctors. Don't be passive.
We are all here for you.

"I'm one of those actors who never lets the grass grow under my feet. Every time a door closes, I just barrel through. I think, Well, what can I do now? I can do that; I can do this. I never let anything get me down, and I never take no for an answer. If I did, I would have quit when I was 17."
