It was amazing.

My only wish is that I could go back to when mom was diagnosed at Christmas 2005. I would not beg her to take chemo. She was such a small woman and it destroyed her. The doctors felt that with chemo she would of lived 12 to 18 months.Without only 6 months.

I begged. She took it... died in 6 months.

Now being on this side of this side of the coin, I would change that one thing.

Frankly you want to be overweight before you take chemo... you will lose alot of weight.
