Excellent post Graciegirl. When I first had to deal with my own experience with cancer (Lymphoma) I was embarassed to talk about it. But now I have come to realize that my own experience can be a help to others. I have members of my family involved in the medical field and they all advised me, based on our location to run, not walk, straight to Moffitt. They did all the testing and made the recommendations for treatment. They forwarded that info to my radiologist and my oncologist and assigned a oncologist at Moffitt to follow my case. Conferences by all were held via the internet and the treatment began. Folks, as a survivor of this horrible disease, I would like to share with you all, that I was in good hands and I am still here to tell you all about it. If any of you think that you can not get the best of care right here in The Villages ( based on my experience ) you would be wrong. The Moffitt center coming here is a blessing for all of our neighbors that have, or will be victimized by this dread disease.
