Oh my gosh, Lorraine, I’m sitting here right now not even knowing how to reply. Though my immediate reaction was having tears spillover and down my cheeks.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart for this. It’s my pleasure to help you and your partner though one of the biggest challenges you’ll both ever face. It’s so important for someone who has ‘walked the walk’ to be able sit down, face to face with a newbie. I wish that I’d had a mentor when I was facing my AML/SCT adventures. My medical teams, through both events, were fantastic but they weren’t able to give first hand accounts as to what a patient endures and rises above. Your gracious comment helped validate why I became a mentor.

You’re now in the position as a caregiver who has gone through every step of the way with your husband’s cancer and stem cell transplant, to offer your input and encouragement when you feel you’re ready. I bet you never realized how strong you are. ☺️

Again, thank you so much, Lorraine. This meant the world to me.
Fondly, Lori. 💕
