Hello All,

I thought I would pass on some wonderful news - my mom (originally diagnosed Jan 2003, Stage III) received a clean bill of health at her 6 month checkup today.. All her Scans came back NED !

As most of you know, waiting for the routine follow up results is a tortuous experience, at best. It is such a relief. (we had ourselves all worked up to receive bad news..)

I think of everyone often, even though I do not post every day.. Keep up the fight !

Vanessa

    Vanessa -

    Congrats to your mom and you both! Now comes that agonizing period where you get worried about the slightest little thing - a tummy ache, being tired, a hang nail... hang tough and tell your mom to listen to her body.

    Congrats!
