WOW... This was VERY resonant for me as my oldest daughter had leukemia when she was 7 years old. It's a club nobody ever wants to be a part of: MCC - Mothers of Children With Cancer. But there's an upgrade- no need to explain. 💜 My daughter is 25 now and her 3 years of treatment a distant memory... that can sometimes feel like it happened yesterday.

I'm so glad to hear your daughter's years in treatment are far behind her! My daughter was diagnosed at 8. She's 12 now, and in remission, and we're in the holding-our-breath stage of post-treatment, just hoping, hoping.
