My own sister's illness had a way of putting my own priorities in order. As difficult as it was, it was also the push in my life that forced me to set myself on a better path and to take charge of my life in a much more focused and healthy way. It is odd how life presents positive lessons for us in sometimes very painful ways. Such a paradox.

I am so sorry your therapist is going through this battle with her health. It will be a difficult road ahead of her and her own focus in her life will change. I hope the news from her doctors is positive and that effective treatment is a possibility.
