Awww. I don't like to make people cry. But if it's in a good way I guess it's all right then. Thanks for the welcome back Terry! :)

Wow. Thanks for telling me about your sister Marlene. It actually adds to my strength or resolve or whatever you want to call it. I like hearing about other's cancer stories, even if the person ultimately dies. People like that really change your life! And I'm stunned and embarrassed but thanks for saying you look up to me as well. Once again it just helps me to continue with what I'm doing and not give up.

Mirrorman? Oh that's an interesting meaning. Art Spiegelman is Jewish. He was born in Sweden, grew up in the US, his parents were Polish Jewish refugees. His book Maus is about his parents surviving the Holocaust.
Wow maus 18 hours is a long time to have an attack. Mine have never seemed to be that long. They last a couple of hours at the most. I exhaust myself and fall asleep generally.

Sorry you had cancer too, but I'm glad you've recovered and it hasn't come back. I'm hoping the same for myself obviously. Thanks for all your thoughts, I appreciate them and they give me something to think about.
