<p>Thank you for the good wishes. This is my second recurrence. I’ve been dealing with cancer for seven years. This latest news is only a week old. I’ve only told my immediate family and my online cancer support group. Treatment won’t be starting for awhile so therefore I don’t feel the need to be telling people right now. I have to digest the news myself. It’s beginning to feel like old crappy news.</p>
<p>People around town found out about Harvard from my son and his friends and then they reached out to me. If someone new asks where my son is going to college I tell them, but I never bring it up. It’s really more my son’s news than mine.</p>
