It's official. As of today, my doctors have declared me fit as a fiddle. This marks my one year anniversary since completing treatment. Needless to say, I'm very relieved and happy. Now if the antidepressant they prescribed agrees with me and works, I may truly believe that I'm on the road. Thanks for listening to me. Hugs, Marilynn

    WONDERFUL NEWS!!!
    Thank you for sharing your great news with us Marilynn. I am very happy for you and I'm sure it must feel GREAT to get this anniversary news. That anniversary can be rather stressful (not that I know from experience as mine will be July 22nd) so I'm happy that you have realson to really celebrate and move on to the next step in life.

    Good luck with the antidepressants. I hope they make your life easier. I wish you good health, both mental any physical!

    I am always awed and humbled by how wonderful you all are. I appreciate your congratulations - they mean a lot me. These tears in my eyes at this moment are because you all touched my heart not because of depression. LOL. Hugs and much love, Marilynn

    Marilyn, sending you a great
    Marilyn, sending you a great big hug for the good news, and for the anniversary celebration. You are a real inspiration to those of us who are a bit behind your schedule, and I am looking forward to "feeling great" some day. The anti-depressant will help, but just make sure they get you on the right one. I have tried several different ones, and haven't found one that works for me yet. Guess my body is resistant to all drugs just now. I am taking Ativan (used when I first started chemo mainly for nausea, but is also for anxiety). This has been the one drug that settles me down, and I am determined to keep up this regiment for as long as the doctors will let me . Good luck on your quest, and congratulations on your anniversary. Hugs.

    Fit as a Fiddle!!!
    I haven't done any extensive research on the fitness of fiddles~ well, actually I have never done any. However, being that people still find and treasure Stratavarius ( sp?)"fiddles", and I have been known to spend untold pleasant hours fiddling around the house... and of course Scarlett O'Hara made saying "fiddle-de-dee' famous:
    I say HOOORAY!!!! Good For you! and Whooop-de-doooo!

    Hugs,
    Claudia

    Congratulations, Marilyn!
    I am so happy for you, Marilyn. Wishing you many, many more "fit as a fiddle" anniversaries. Thanks for sharing your good news.

    Also hoping that the prescribed antidepressant works well for you. But, even if it doesn't, do keep in mind that there are many out there now--there will be one that works for you.
