Kakalina

I am in AZ, Kakalina. ... Just outside of Phoenix.  East Valley. 
 
 I too have had to deal with the VA, but, am using my Medicare and TFL for sclc treatment(s).  Perhaps we can get together sometime and "just" talk.
 
I consider myself a survivor... Hard battle, but well fought.

Welcome to LCSC.  I am so glad you found us!  When my husband was diagnosed I came here and not only found a wealth of information I also found a great deal of support.  I had no one in my life at the time that understood and I consider each member here my friend!
 
I certainly understand your fear and also that your husband doesn't want to discuss this.  I dealt with that too!  The biggest piece of advice I can give you is to please remember to take care of yourself too during such a stressful time.  If you ever just want to talk, please come here and we'll help in anyway that we can.
 
Please keep us updated ((hugs))

I have a living will. I plan to go out on my terms.  I consider my body as just an earth suit-my spirit soars-can't wait for the next phase. 
 
All my family knows that I have had a great life-done things women only dreamed of, even with the good and bad... I am hoping to squeeze a few more productive years into mine. 
 
Should my brain shut down, I have directives in place.  As the matriarch of this family, I have already started the training for the next generations.  I came into this life with nothing, I shall go out with nothing.  My heart and soul are content with who and what I am.
