    Oftentimes, there is solace in telling strangers about what's bothering you. Bunch of strangers here, but not really. Plenty of folks to send all the positive vibes your way!

    Wishing you the best, and the strength to come out on top.

    Well that bites. MD Anderson in Houston has a pretty good reputation.

    Thank you, everyone for your prayers and support.

    Mrs.C, who is definitely a gift from God, has shown me how strong our love is. We've been there done that and are a team with a win/win record, she said, so let's just beat it again.
    Thanks again for understanding and reaching out.

    MD Anderson is awesome. One of the reasons why I am here today 

    Game on

    I must have missed that you were/are being treated at MD Anderson. Let me know if I can help with anything, or pass on intel re: places to eat at :)

    Caliking I am not at MD Anderson now, I was there in 2003 when I was exploring an option on treatment for cml. They discovered I was miss typed and found a matching donor which made the transplant safer and better possibility to take.
    Very impressive place, they treated 40,000+ cancer patients that year alone.

    Got it. Didn't want you to be in my neck of the woods thinking you didn't know anyone.

    Prayers for you and your family. I know how scary all of that **** can be

     As a 23 year patient (I’m 41) in remission, I’ll echo exactly what @wooderson said. You’ve got this. MD Anderson is a first class place. I still speak to my surgeon regularly.

    Wooderson I wish everything is well and godspeed on the recovery.

    ColbyLang awesome to hear that news and I agree on your ranking of MD Anderson.

    Luckily I can trust my team here allowing me to  be close to my family. I can't stress how the support of my family,friends and faith have given me the courage and drive to keep me strong even when beaten back. 

    Thanks again everyone.
