Subject: RE: LilyFestre - Port is 'on board' chemo continues
Michelle, I have a co-worker going through chemo now (breast cancer). Chemo of course isn't easy, but she seems to have some really excellent conversations with her chemo peeps during the hours she's down there. She tweets from her chemo bed or chair or whatever that is. She has also been blogging about it and posting on facebook to keep us up to date.

I know how hard it is to even go to a chemo lab--you're confronting your own mortality and that of everyone else in the room. You know that it is a place filled with hope and life, and the suggestion above that the friends or neighbor simply drop by for a visit during your treatment might help them adjust, to understand, and then offer useful support as time passes.

Thanks for updating the video--Veronica is beautiful! (So are you!)
