Last week during my appointment at the counseling center, I got some information about a charity called Imerman Angels. It helps to coordinate one-on-one support for cancer patients. First, I filled out an on-line application and then an employee from the charity called me and went over some more questions with me. And finally, yesterday I received an e-mail matching me with someone who has volunteered to be a mentor, someone that has gone through a diagnosis and treatments similar to mine. My match is also 38 and was diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer 7 years and 20 surgeries ago.
It takes a minute to soak that in. 7 years and 20 surgeries ago.
