    Hi! I too am a survivor of a teratoma. I had an immature teratoma and just finished treatment in November 2000. I would love to talk to you! I'm 30 years old and have three children. Are you still out there?

    I am a 33 year old wife and mother of 2 small children diagnosed last year with a malignant mediastinal teratoma and would love to talk to someone who has gone through this before. Are you still out there?
