I know many challenges are ahead but like everything you do you will come through them with grace and humor. My dearest friend of 47 years has been the head oncology nurse at her hospital for 20 years and she has guaranteed me that this is the most treatable "C" there is and you will recover 100%. Stay positive dear Penny. You are my new hero!

Well on the bright side of it all, they found it early it sounds like - right at the start of symptoms. And I've also heard that as we get older, it's not as bad as when you get it when you're younger, as far as surviving it. I'm POSITIVE you will come through this!!! My ex-BF mother has it, and she's had it forever. not sure the whole story on that, but either way, she's alive and well. I will absolutely pray for you! And send fairy dust your way!!! I'll ask God also to keep you in his daily prayers and watch over you.

You are strong willed, positive minded, and blessed with a powerful support group so I know you will triumph over all adversity! I want you to know that I love you. Through many years your humor often brought me through hard times and gave me laughter. I know it will be an advantage for you now. Thank you for your influence on my girls and all those other children you touched. We'll have story time again for our grandchildren and YOU will be the storyteller!!
