Hi Dana - We are indeed in a sisterhood, and a very special one. I too feel a calling to share my knowledge and help support others. That's a key reason why I became the Cancer Guide for this site. You can read my profile here:

While I've been a breast cancer survivor for more than 20 years, I've been living with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) for only a short time. There is no cure, and lifelong treatment is needed, just as it would be if I had another chronic illness such as diabetes. There are more people living with cancer today than dying from it, and the more we can support and help each other, the better.
Hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday, and I'm looking forward to hearing more from you in the days, weeks, months, and years ahead.
