This post really got to me. I have been on the other side of the equation, as I had cancer when I was 15. Thank you for writing so honestly about this difficult situation. BTW, I also have a brother who is neurodivergent (autism).

Wow, I hope you have not had side effects after cancer. I can imagine it was really difficult. I am thankful that my daughter's treatment is working and that she is on a good path. Thank you for reading.

So far, so good. Physically, at least. 50 years later, I am just beginning to recognize the psychological effects this traumatic experience has had on my life.
