PET SCAN and NED

I had my first scan since finishing radiation and erbitux in July, my Onc went over the results and they came back NED. I was so happy that I actually was crying in the doc's office, the results were just too much. I look at this sight all the time for the great information and the inspiring people that respond, I am so happy to share the news with others. As a 34 year survivor of cancer it feels great to say I am cancer free!!! I pray for all the other survivors out there and hope to hear more positive results from everyone.

    To have battled the beast at 11 years old must have been overwhelming. To have beat it a second time all the more reason to cry. Enjoy the blessing of NED!
