Last weekend I spent sunday with three beautiful women.Surviors in so many ways, two out of the four of us are probably going to be okay .At least for now, It seems soo unfair for the other two not to ever be OK It makes me soo angry. What the hell did they do to deserve this nasty disease!I just cant rap my mind around that .My friends wil never be treatment free.I just cant stand it !
We plan to go to the national ovarian cancer walk next year in chicago.I hope and pray all four of us are still here to go!

Hang in there. Appreciate all the moments you have with them now; spending time and energy on anger or will not help anyone. Smile and laugh together. Hugs to all of you!
