It is an inspiring story, and one which resonates with a cancer survivor such as me. I have forwarded to my wife too to see if it has the same impact on her. Thanks for pointing this out to me Mark.

They are great people and I love them to bits. Visited them recently and am amazed how they are dealing with this lousy disease. Thanks again [Angela, Thanks for stopping by! With the global reach of this Interwebbie thingiemajig there must be others like Indi who are able to draw strength from her writing. Case in point is 5 May post about "I want to sit with him." http://indiasadventure.blogspot.com/2009/05/on-my-bike-and-off-it.html Heck, even the care agencies and various medical support orgs who are involved can maybe improve what they do by seeing it up close and personal, so to speak.
