    JEML-do you mind if I give my opinion? I'm giving it anyway. Why don't you list each diagnosis as a medical professional, and just continue the way you are. That way, people seeking information can learn from your experiences, or at least use your experience as crutch when making a decision or seeing what you've been going through is a normal thing. My father had cancer in his small intestines. That was a very long time ago. I can answer some questions based on my father's experiences-like the doctors gave him several months at the most, but he died 3 years later. He had a friend that ended his 7 year remission period without further cancers. He gave a big Italian party. The parking lot was across the street. He was run over when he went to get his car. I can talk about how cancer ravages a family. You can share so much more.
    Good luck---And I read your journey yesterday.

    I haven't thanked you for the link to md Anderson and dental care. It's great information. I recently shared it with my navigator/supervisor at the wellness center. Both of us will share this information with those who contact us and are in our different support groups.

    Hi, do U have cancer, or is this your specialty? I looked at your journal, but you should fill out the Oh NO. That helps others to understand. I've looked at some and they've helped me.

    There are also subtypes listed on this page to narrow down the type of cancer to match your dx.
