I thought it sounded like personal experience. Has that ring of authenticity. The only thing I wondered about in this chapter is why she didn't tell her sons before she had the surgery rather than after. Otherwise, another very well written chapter, and I am looking forward to the next.

She wanted all the information before she told them. Thank you for the kind review.

As in most of our lives, just when things seem to be working out like we plan, something always comes along to put a crimp in our giddy up. But hopefully, this is only a temporary set back. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Anne Johnston
Thank you for moving this story along and finally bringing Katherine's breast cancer out in the open. It must bring back a lot of memories for you to write about this based on what you went through. Great story.

Cancer is a severe disease unless you catch in time. When you had yours, did you detect the cancer in the early stage. You mention you had two surgeries. I like your story so very much!

At first I was in stage two. After the first surgery, I was in stage 4. It had progressed.

so glad that you are okay.
Comment from Sankey
I had a feeling you were writing from personal experience. This was a good read and I might look for the other in your portfolio later. Lots of emotion and stuff through here. Thanks for another great read. No spags today.

I'm glad you're mirroring your own experience through Katherine's character, and Gabriel is the leader of the support group, as a character he's as good as a supportive husband can be, your experience will help me and others understand what this particular variety is about. Beautifully written Barbara, blessings Roy

Comment from Gert sherwood
Katherine receives her biopsy results.
Your chapter in the book Football
Football Chapter 43
Barb,
While I was reading your well written words I could feel the tension that
Katherine was feeling when she found that she has cancer.
I know its not easy to write this story, especially, what you your self
had cancer.

So much for this family to contend with, but thank goodness, Katherine has a lot of support. Gabriel is a godsend for the entire family. I can't think but this will end well after a long period of recovery.

Comment from Ethan Vandervelden
Very good chapter-conveys the struggle of what Katherine is going through well. Shows a lot of gripping emotion!
Couple potential SPAGs to consider:
{"Either(Neither) did you, so what's your point?"} --change Either to Neither.
{Standing(,) Gabriel said, "Tonight I will."} --add comma.
Enjoyed the read, the thought and the emotion that went into this chapter!
