    Love that news!
    My dear Craig,

    This is so heartening and fabulous to read. Just about the time I got to know you and love you, I realized I was VERY worried about you. It seemed that things were very bleak, and I was nearly afraid to hope for a good outcome. You have given everyone here such hope, though, both through your caring and positive outlook and with your NED status. You just wrapped a great big Christmas present and gave it to everyone in the group!

    *hugs*

    AWESOME!!!!
    Only one of the best news I've heard today!!! I Love that you are NED now! How proud I am of you going through all this, and finally no sign of the beast, unless you have the 666 tattoed in your mane somewhere ;)

    I could see you putting on those black sunglasses, a white button-down shirt with some sexy white Hanes underwear, (or was it Fruit of the Loom back then?), and white socks, sliding across a wooden floor, singing "I Love That Old Time Rock and Roll" by Bob Seger, just like Tom Cruise did in "Risky Business! Now, if you don't want to sing nekkid which I think is beautiful,even leaving things to the imagination, is sexy as well :)

    I agree, I'd love to thank all these wonderful new people for their friendships, and stay here to post away as well, we can sure use anyones help and support during these dark days that we get!

    Thanks to you my lion, for just being beautiful YOU!!

    Hugsss, Lovesss and *PEEPS*

Fa..La..La La...La...La LALALA!!!! Yes siree... tis the season! Love you Craig! I am so happy for you

    God is Shining on You
    Truly the miracle of God through doctors' hands and medicine and a lot of God's love for you. That is awesome news Craig, and what better to hear that then right before the Christmas Season. I bet you were just blown away when the doctor told you that, especially after six years of battling one form or another and then not having our support for 5 of those years. You did all that journey without this new wonderful family you have here since about six months ago. I am so glad that you are declared NED and pray that it continues forever. This surely is a good way to celebrate the Holidays. I hope that you do a funky happy naked NED dance because you deserve it :)

    So happy for the news.

    Glad to hear that you are feeling better too. Take it easy at work and don't over do it, especially now since you are on the mend.

    Hugs! Kim

    Way to go!
    Craig,
    I am sitting here trying not to cry tears of JOY! My family is here and I will have great expressions of glee, when they have gone. Some would not understand. So in cyber space I am singing as loud as I can. Congradulations.

    Ia m sorry
    I am posting so late. But I did want to put my 2 cents in here. Never Never be ashamed of sharing great news. We all need to hear it as well. I can relate I felt the same way when I found out I was NED, I felt bad actually, that there were so many of my good friends here still fighting, but shortly relaized that it meant a whole lot to them so share the news. Anyway You know what I am talking about, I wont preach..LOL

    Great news I am so very happy for you my friend. You have set the path for others to follow, what a great accomplishment! Thank you for doing that, and I thank God that you are NED and pray that you will be forever!!!

    God Bless

    YOWZA!!!!
    If it's not a word it is now!!! LOL! Ya who!! God has truly blessed you and this board. You have truly been a bright clear voice on this board. I am so happy to hear this awesome news. Sharing, shows the good, the bad, and the ugly! It also shows what can occur, NED! Yes, sir this is an unimaginable group of people. No one, unless you are part of this board would or could ever understand the closeness, the warmth, understanding and the gross openness that goes on and has to go on to share and get thru all the ordeals, hoops and hurdles, we all as patients have gone thru. Thank you for being a part of my life. It reminds me everyday to Make it a Great Day. Warm hugs and Happy New Year!!
