Only once a year appointments now with the doctor!!! She was emoting over my labs, my scans....EVERYTHING....she said "You know, for a person who has never had cancer, you are healthy...but for you, after 2....WOW! this is fantastic!"

Dancing!

Hugs, Kathi

    Congrats
    That is great news. I have always seen recovery in this business as a process through which cancer and it's associated paraphernalia take up less space iN your life. Seeing docs, doing scans, going for reviews etc is all part of the cancer and as that diminishes it leaves space for you to relate it with 'life' that has nothing to do with cancer. That for me is recovery.

    Celebrate it.

    Marvelous Darling!
    The only thing better than this report is all the ones yet to come for the next 50 or 60 years!

    Add my cheers to all those being given for your news from around the world.
