    What else did you do to help your get over this ?
    Hi Lisa Rose.

    I am curious if you followed any alternative treatments / diet etc which you think helped you get through and be a long term survivor.

    Congratulations and happy to see you here. You are certainly an inspiration.

    You are an angel...........I needed you today!!! I finished my mop-up chemo on Monday and have been feeling good about it. But there are so many recurrances here its scary. It is so nice to see someone post with a long history of NED after having gone through the pain and agony of this horrible disease. THANK YOU SO MUCH and God Bless. Tom

    Thank you for sharing your great news - you have heartened me so much. I was diagnosed last July with stage 3, with 3 out of 21 lymph nodes affected. I finished my last chemo cycle last week but can't help but thinking 'What next....?'

    Your story has filled me with hope! I feel renewed positive thoughts and am determined not to let this get me down any more!!!
    Thanks again
