, I am so glad that you found the information you needed here on

this board. I too feel the same way. I find a lot of info here as

well as comfort.

I am sorry you lost your mom.

Just make sure that you get yourself checked with a colonoscopy since

it is in your family7. I should of had that done sooner since my

father and grandfather both had colon cancer. I waited to late and

have had to go through the surgery and chemo. Please make sure you

are checked so you can be here for your children. Ingrid
