Thanks guys, it the first cancer in our family. She has a positive attitude so that helps. They caught it early enough she was just going into Stage 2. The only thing that worries us is that is was the most aggressive form of Breast Cancer so the next five years will have to keep an eye on her health.
Thanks again everyone on the forums is so understanding, you guys help so much.
