Decision Point (I will do chemo until my body or dr says finished. Question where do I want to die? What is better for the family? Me?): Youngest child 6hours away at college. In Nursing program( I was a nurse, up until my diagnosis. School very important, A type personality. I don't want to get very sick , and interfere with her studies. So I will try to hang on there.
