Lost a friend to it


Her twins (friends of our daughter) were in 5th grade at the time, her youngest in 2nd grade. She opted for the most aggressive, awful treatments - not in some futile effort to beat the disease, but in order for her kids to have more time with her. In between the awful treatments, she and her husband took the kids to Europe, drove around the US, etc - all to build family memories for the kids before she died. She endured a lot.
