Dear @windyshores:
My broken heart goes out to you and my spirit's being strengthened upon reading your moving story; for I lost my beloved son more than 2 decades ago in an accident near the campus of University of Pennsylvania when he was a college junior attending PENN and I felt like a walking death ever since...
I truly admire your inspiring courage and strength that continue to help people along this journey in spite of your own challenges in life! Thanks for sharing your experience to help us!
God bless!

@lifetraveler so sorry for your loss, and it was sudden. I know what it is like getting that call but I still have my child.
Back to managing fear. I have actually thought of seeing a therapist because I think the fear gets buried kind of deep and influences decisions without being conscious of it, if that makes sense. Even if we feel peaceful and think we are fine.
I don't really like the term "survivor," because we don't really know if we have survived cancer. But for now and for the years we have and maybe for the rest of our lives (for many of us) it really can be on the back burner and we stay well.
