Mon, 09 Jun 2008 14:23:51 +0100 http://dailystrength.org/people/97216/journal/1106249 I'm so worried over this potential cancer.  It's all I can think about, when I'm not struggling to breathe, that is!!  I feel bad, too, because my mom has a tendency to breathe "for me," like when I'm struggling for breath, she starts taking deep breaths too....
