Congratulations!
Congratulations, Ladybug... for being two years NED! Your doctor is right... the cancer could always come back, but now you are so much more aware and by having regular, ongoing checkups, you would catch it very early and can treat it.
I was shocked when I was diagnosed... they figure I had had the tumour for 10 years by the time they found it!! And to think if I had had a colonoscopy any times in the previous 10 years before DX, they would have caught it that much earlier. But like you, and probably most everyone, I had no symptoms or reasons to think there was a problem. The things we think in hindsight
Huggggggs,

Hi, I think Cheryl might have hit on a great name for your blog or a newsletter for Semicolons:
Hindsight! I like it! Instead of chapters, they could be called "resections" A calendar could be called "Prep". Can't use Conondar, The Colon Club already uses that name.
OK, your turn...0 -

Awesome Ladybug!!
Its not coming back so why dread it.You have to completely disregard even the slightest notion that it will return. Thinking about it is the Devils work at keeping you upset and ya know what I do? Whenever I start thinking about it I look up in the sky and ask "Will you take care of this for me?" He always has and always will. I've got a DisneyWorld vacation already planned for next October and a week in Panama City the next year. Ya know why ? cause in 6 more treatments I will have kicked cancers butt and theres no way its gonna keep me from planning and living my life the way that I want to.....I expect no less from you or anyone else in here. God,determination,and perserverance keeps us alive,as long as we keep all three we can't lose................God Bless ya hun0
