good morning Cathy. I understand your anxiety about the stem cell transplant. I was traveling back and forth into Boston when my spouse was going through this. I stayed at the hospital for the first week and met other women who were going through this too. I met a wonderful woman from California and we would get together and take walks in the city, have lunch and one time went into the Holy Cross Cathedral as it's so beautiful. She had never been into a Catholic Cathedral and I really enjoyed explaining all the things about the church to her. We spent the weeks sharing together and when I went home and she went back to California we stayed in touch. It was nice to have that experience together and share. It's not easy being a caregiver as you well know. As I always say Faith over fear.
