what we thought was some easy to remove non-spreading cancer has turned out to be quite the opposite. plus we found out we are 6 weeks pregnant. pregnancy means chemo is out which would be extremely effective for her cancer. now its just a crazy invasive intensive surgery and radiation. trying to balance the bad cancer with the blessing of another baby. every emotion in one, i dont know how to best support her. thanks.
 
Sending prayers to you and your family. Support her by being there 100%, ask what she needs a lot, I am a big believer in therapy - it has saved me from myself and benefitted out family.

Research the h*ll out of the kind she has been diagnosed with. Check up on what the doctors are telling you guys. Make sure she is getting the best care possible. Try to keep her (and dont you either) doom scroll the internet. Only read from medical sites or cancer.org types. Lots of garbage on the internet.

My experience with cancer is: it might get rough, some folks get real down...never give up.

F CANCER!
