I want to thank all of you for the support. This is so new and so painful, that for the moment, we can't talk with our friends face-to-face. I know that the time will come when we will turn to those friends, but we're just not ready. It has been a blessing to be able to write this down, and to know and feel the prayers. Thanks also to webmaster penny for allowing this to stay on the cruise boards.
The prognosis and course of treatment will be determined over the next few days. We should know Wednesday. Unfortunately or maybe fortunately, on Friday my parents are scheduled to attend an Alaskan cruise (work related) and I am scheduled to go to WDW with my DH and DD. At present, we are all planning to go, as we know the fight is yet to come. Thanks again so much!
