Wow! That is some very interesting information! I've never thought of their being a link between cancer and posttraumatic stress disorder. After reading that article, it makes perfect sense. I'm glad that this is a recognized and studied illness. I get the "Why Me's" and get down in the dumps at least once a year, I'm now wondering if I might not be having some sypmtoms of PTS. I think it's worth a visit to a therapist. Although, Lord know what else they'll find wrong insinde my brain (ha)!!!!
