OT. Big thanks to my forum friends

The last 24 days had been tough,my wife has been in hospital shes had stage 4 cancer for 3 1/2 years,had 41 rounds of chemo and some radiation and nothing working any longer.Over the last year she's been to M D Anderson and Vanderbilt but they couldn't do anything either. She is sedated now because of terrible pain,don't think she'll go home but if she does it will be with hospice. It's really sad shes only 53.I want to think this forum and the people on her just for being who you are,it gives me peace to read and visit and helps thru the difficult times.I don't know any of you but it seems you are some of my best friends.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    She is a true warrior.  There is peace and comfort in knowing that you both have explored all options, and have done everything humanly possible.
