Outstanding! Held my attention right up to the last word. My aunt and my sister both had to undergo chemotherapy and I went with both of them. It's a lonely, frightening ordeal even with someone by your side. You obviously know that you've been there it shows in your story which flows beautifully and is full of emotion. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

When a person has cancer, you must have faith in your doctor. And never give up on getting better or improving. This story sounds so real being you had experienced the same thing.

The story was well written. My husband went through this treatment with different medications. And Steven, the son, made a great statement. He'd rather have you without hair and alive. Thank you for posting.

This was a very moving story. The emotions in this story are vividly described. The story from beginning to end is very captivating. The chemotherapy process is well described. A very heart felt story.

Thank you for writing this piece. It is enlightening to know what people have to go through with the process of chemotherapy. It is a very exhausting process and it is not a easy process.

It's a horrible story and yet up[lifting seeing the support she is being given. Yes, the Football title, confused me until I read the notes. .....................................................

-Thanks for sharing the notes, barbara. Your son sounds like a pretty smart guy!
-You did a good job with the chapter, and I am glad you kept more to the
emotion of the situation than the medical details.
-One of the things that makes this a good story is the family camaraderie,
from her own sons, Gabe, and both sets of parents, plus friends.
-I like that you show her accepting of the hugs and love her family wants to share.
-It's hard to believe there are only two more posts. I am enjoying the story too much!!!

This is an intensely emotional chapter. The family unity is very heartening. The details of chemotherapy have been correctly described.Katherine saying "I don't have a choice' is hard hitting..
