Dear Kathy,

Of course you are terrified, who wouldn't be. I wish my sister Barbara was here to talk to you as she just successfully went through treatment for Breast Cancer.

I know nothing of your condition but try, try not to think of the Oncologist as the last stop. Let us all know AS SOON AS YOU CAN the outcome of your consultation and the treatment plan.

I will try tonight to find some support groups on the Internet for you.

I am praying for you.

Love, Roberta
