First, my condolences on the loss of your father and sister. Cancers shows no mercy, does it. My family suffered its share of saddness over this disease too. It’s our last gift to our loved ones to be able to be their caregivers through that journey.

I’m sorry that you’re now faced with your own journey. I hope you have a great support team behind you too! Though, being in the Connect forum you’re never flying solo. Most of us have gone through our own exciting times with a medical crises or have been caregivers so we’re here to offer support and encouragement.

I’d like to introduce you to a fellow mentor, @naturegirl5. Helen has had her own journey through the land of endometrial cancer and will be a good source of information you.

I’ve picked up on your sense of humor! Personally, I think it’s a key to our spirit of endurance. While you’re a bionic woman with artificial parts, I’m a Chimera with 2 sets of DNA. 😅

When do you get to try out that new port?
