Earlier this week, my mother had to have a series of tests run to determine the nature of a breast tumor. She had cancer in 1992 in another part of her body but had it removed and has had no trouble since then. But that was the most frightening year of my life (my grandmother died of the same type of cancer in 1991), and I don't think that fear will ever go away. Cancer haunts me every day of my life; it is both my greatest hate and my greatest terror. So I tend to get a little paranoid I think it might be creeping back into my life... - 12/01/98

For those seeking cancer support and/or information on the Web, I wholeheartedly recommend Keepin' The Faith, "Cancer Support For the Heart and Soul."
