Hi everyone,

Just want to let you know that my dad's CAT scan came up clear. He is now one year out from treatment for stage IV colon cancer. It is possible. A year ago, doc told us that my dad's cancer would come back 6 months to a year after chemo. Well, it is now a year and my dad has beaten those odds. I believe God has gotten my dad where he is now. Thank you for all of your prayers.

God bless,

-Lee-

    Lee,
    We will continue to pray for YD(your dad). When does he go back for another scan?

    Hi Lee
    That's great news. Can you share your dad's regimen?
    I just visited my dad. He looked fine. Just a little skinny.
    Keep you and your family in prayers.

    Lee,
    We are so happy for you and your Dad. We just did the 1 year NED dance on 8/13, and I know your sense of relief. My husband also has Stage IV colon cancer. I thank you for your post as it gives me continued strength and hope for the future.
