Hi lioness111 - Welcome to EmpowHER. You've had quite a go of it, haven't you? You said that you're a strong willed woman, and have always been an optimist. Can you tell us more about what you mean by that? Also, thinking back on your experiences, what advice would you give to someone newly diagnosed with cancer? We look forward to learning more about you and hearing more.
