I went for my 3-month check, and my oncologist said "I don't want to see you for 6 months"!!!!!

Music to MY ears!!!

CEA was 1.1, CA27.29 (Breast cancer marker) was 18....both WELL within normal range (probably the only thing on my body that IS normal..lol!).

As an added bonus, my cholesterol is, for the first time in my adult life, under 200!!!!

NAKED happy dancing is happening as we speak!!!

Hugs, Kathi

    Now thats a milesone worth celebrating Kathi. Congrats. I guess all that RnR was a good thing. I'd dance for a week - or at least until the neighbors start talking.
    wishing yo many more good scans to come

    I do not post often but have followed your posts since coming to this site two years ago. I am sooooo glad for you. I know that you have been through much more than any one person should have to bear. All along you have held fast and kept others encouraged and informed.

    Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing with us. We all long for the dat that we can hear "go away" for ourselves or loved ones.
