Stand up tall, eyes forward, head high, and walk through that door, sit down and say "I could use some help. Can you direct me?" Food is important. Nutrition is so key in helping to fight this disease. We need medicine, and follow ups. We have dry mouth from meds, and need dental care. Please, stand up tall, and ask. The rest of us will be standing here cheerleading you.
