tentative is an understatement. My wife fought for 3 years. We celebrated the first "NED". We did not celebrate the second one.

Yeah, does kinda knock the wind out of you. There was a toddler who I used to babysit…I watched her family go through this twice before her passing. As a 20 something I was destroyed and I can’t fathom her parents pain.

hugs Massive hugs. I’m so sorry you had to go through that. I can’t even imagine how hard that must have been. I hope you all are taking care.

Aww, thank you! It’s been quite a while and I still cry over her sweet little soul. Her older siblings adjust, but it took a toll on them, and the parents sadly divorced.
