So, Scott, you wife got lucky twice. The first time in having you as her husband and, years later, finding a doctor who understands healing in its multiple facets.

Good morning @nutmeg56 and @callalloo Thanks for your kind words. Unfortunately, my wife passed away from her disease, but we always knew this was the most likely outcome from the time of her initial diagnosis. Yes, we were really lucky to find her neuro-oncologist for sure! The first time we met it was about 2:00 am in my wife's hospital room while she was still in a post-op coma. He was sitting on the foot of her bed when I woke from dozing in the chair in her room. I asked him why he was there. He said, "I have a feeling this is going to be very challenging for your wife as well as her medical team and I felt the need to meet her right away". It was quite a way to bond...

Strength, Courage, & Peace
