9 ReactionsI'm so glad that I found this forum after my third diagnosis of cancer. The members, mentors, and moderators helped me through a stressful time. I am grateful that now I have an opportunity to help others as they face a new cancer diagnosis or a recurrence. We really are stronger together!
Happy holidays to all. May the coming year be one of peace and contentment.
