Wow, that was a sad story Hugh. What a seriously tragic disease. I lost my aunt Sally to cancer before I really even knew her (I was 4 when she died). She was 38 years old and a mother of six, five of whom were special need kids who were adopted. Sometimes things just don't make sense. :confused:

My mother informed me yesterday that she had skin cancer. She's having surgery today to have it removed. Bleh.

The cancer, fortunately, was not very advanced and my mom's surgery was successful. She was in very good spirits last night when I spoke with her. It's quite the relief.

Glad to hear the good news man. My grandma has had it removed a few times.

I appreciate the time you took out of what has been a hectic and full time in your family to give an update. The positive news is also a plus.
