I went from having what I thought was acid reflux to having a diagnosis of stage 3/4 cancer in about 6 months. I will be starting chemo soon. Prognosis at this point is not good.
Those of you who pray, I'd appreciate your prayers and support. For anybody who is on FB, I've set up a private support group. If you're interested, pm me for an invite.

Don't really know how this will play out. Concentrating right now on getting my stuff in order while I'm still in decent shape.
