I am posting this on behalf of another member - with her permission. Barbara (b4man) has been diagnosed with cancer and will be undergoing both chemotherapy and radiation treatments. She is not the type that would just come out and ask for prayers and support for herself. I will leave discussing or not discussing any details up to her. The treatment is going to be difficult for her and she is going to need it all the prayers, encourage and support she can get during the next several months. Please remember her in your thoughts and prayers.

Barbara, first and foremost, you are a SURVIVOR! Lance Armstrong Foundation

Barbara -

I was just thinking about you yesterday when I was in Greensboro visiting my parents. I almost called ahead to see if you wanted to do lunch. Now I wish I had. Best of luck and stay strong.

George

Re: A member needs prayers and support

Barbara, I am wishing you a speedy recovery and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I recently went through radiation/chemo and had 2 operations to remove what was left. While all that was going on I also had 2 heart attacks and triple bypass surgery! If I can overcome all that you can beat this little cancer thing. If you need someone to talk to about radiation or chemo effects, I will be happy to discuss what I have learned. It was helpful for me to have someone who had experienced it, to talk to. If you would like to talk send me a PM and I'll send you my contact info. All my best to you. You can beat this!
Take care and keep your chin up,
