I dislike her husband in a serious way, but she has 3 children under the age of 5. I lost my mom when I was 17, my youngest sister was 8, I am 66 and it still hurts to this moment. Hoping for the very best for this young woman.

Wow. Three children under 5. That makes me tired just thinking about it.

I survived Stage 3 and am still here after 14 years!

(27,436 posts)I was diagnosed in January of this year following a routine mammogram. Finished all treatment in April. I thought medical treatment would be slowed down due to Covid but here in northern California it couldnt have been smoother. Maybe where you live matters.

I could not have done that without my husband by my side at every appointment and most treatment. I suspect she will not have that.
Having small children and the whole pandemic will make it harder for her.
Other than that, I will not say anything.
