Hi there
I am 29 years old, and was recently diagnosed with Kidney cancer (RCC), stage 2, in my right kidney. I had half of my kidney removed on June 3rd of this year. I am recovering nicely. I didnt have to have any radical therapy. I was very lucky to have caught this early. I think my family is still denial, because I didnt have "the kind of cancer" that made me sick. it was an operation, and for them it is over. I often think like they do, but when it comes time for blod work, and MRI's I get freaked out all over again. I had a liver panel blood test this week. Did any else with RCC have to have this sort of test. I found out the results April 7th.
I hope to talk with you all about your stories, and your amazing roads to recovery!
Sharon
