At my initial diagnoses, my oncologist suspected I had Stage IV inflammatory/invasive ductal carcinoma (grew from 3cm to 9cm in 3 weeks)and told me it was incurable. 10 months of chemo/surgery/radiation are now over and I received the results of the 3rd set of bone/CT scans and they are....negative! My pap test came back.....negative!

I guess some would say this is a remission....yippee! I'll take it! I know there is no "cure", only remission, but whatever it's called, it's wonderful.

I know others aren't so blessed, and my heart and prayers go out to you to keep fighting.

I just had to share my personal joy with all the great women on this board.

Thank you all for sharing your stories, it has helped me more than you'll ever know that you're all out there, willing to talk about your experiences.

Love to you all.
