I think what most people do is to write about the treatments more than the feelings. I tend to not get involved as I read such articles becuz I'm not fully into doing things by the way of the medical establishment's book.

Your piece is all about HOW IT FEELS. Wow! And you really get that across. I was fully blown away reading this. Not becuz of boo-hoo drama, but the way you pinpointed the fears & how they manifest . . . intelligently & precisely . . . making your reader really FEEL what you go thru (((HUGS)))
