Slick, my thoughts and prayers go out to you. Hearing the word "Cancer" does give one pause and it may feel like you have to make bazillion decisions immediately - been there, done that. I'm a breast cancer survivor. The love and support is just oozing from this thread and will carry you through this difficult time. A positive attitude really DOES have an effect on one's recovery and healing time. I was back at work full time within in a month of my mastectomy - heck, I was called into meetings less than a week after my surgery and came into the office with surgical drains in my body

Shave your legs for that hunky intern!
