6 years after stage 4 diagnosis...there is always hope!

I haven't been on this board forever....I never "forget" that I am a longterm survivor but my hope for all of us is that the memory becomes more distant. I had my "last"? MRI in October/2011. I had surgery for stage 4/single met to liver in December 2005. When i went for my MRI results my surgeon said, "cured". I asked what he thought my odds of standing in front of him six years later were and he said....10%. Never give up....there is always hope...
