There's been loads of great news shared this week so thought I would just add my own. For those that don't know was diagnosed last year. Had all the treatments going for stage 3 rectal cancer and jsut had my one year postop screening.

Results in last night- all bloods and CT clear. Emotional time for my wife and me- my one year old son baffled as to what was going on but giggled at us jumping around the room so I think shared in the celebration. Can relax now for a short time before the next round of tests so booking a long weekend to somewhere on the continent (European on that is).

NED is doing the rounds and long may it last!

Steve.

    Congratulations on your good results! All these NED stories are a great encouragement for those of us who are just starting to fight cancer.

    I'm also envious that you're booking a long weekend to Europe. I have to go to Alabama this weekend. Europe seems like it might be more fun than Montgomery, AL.
