Thank you, Mona. I have just registered.
I agree with you that sharing with family is difficult. I’m the first in the family with cancer. It’s hard to get a conversation going. They don’t know how to respond and I’m not sure if my sharing is helpful…so typically I don’t.

Yes. I’ve experienced the same. Your loved ones generally want to stay positive at all times. They mean well but can’t handle hearing about your fears or concerns. I’m more than happy to connect at anytime. Not sure if Mayo connect can coordinate or how to share my email address with you but I will if I’m able to figure out that process. Keep in touch.
