@lindabees thanks to you, too!

And i'm SO glad you guys are still around, too!

I still clearly remember, being 28, being told "you have a tumor in your pancreas," worrying that it was "Big-C" cancer (s opposed to that "Little-c" benign type mine ended up being, because it WAS caught so early!), and being SO scared!

And--yes, the old JH boards were the only place with other patients--and Michael PA's posts about his wife who also had a PNET and was a survivor--was the ONLY guidepost i had back then.

Which was why i KNEW-from his stories about her case & her care, that i needed to learn to read research papers, and keep on top of any research being published--as i'm sure you both know!

I was thrilled to discover Mayo had set this up--because those old boards were SO helpful in helping us "not feel so alone," and in finding & sharing up-to-date info!

And i'll definitely be recomminding this place to some folks i know, too!
