Thanks, Dadcue. I’m sorry for posting this and hope I didn’t make anyone uncomfortable. I was feeling sad and weepy and thought if I wrote it all down it would help.
It did, in a way If they had started her treatment 3 years ago would she of had a better chance of survival? I would like to think so… they started her treatment so fast when they found it, it was like the doctor said”oh crap” and went full speed ahead to treat her!
I thank everyone for your thoughts and words of compassion…you are awesome! ❤️💕❤️

Don't apologize. Most of the things I post make me teary-eyed. I think writing it down and posting it helps me too.

I have a hard time telling anyone verbally because then I get full of tears. I figure if I can write about it and not get teary-eyed I'm beginning to get over it.

I have talked to a therapist about the tears. She said it was medical PTSD. I think it happens to people when unfortunate medical things happen whether it happens to you or someone else.
