Clear SCAN and no more chemo

I recently had an appointment with my oncologist. Even though I had two more rounds of chemo scheduled, she decided I was done. Then I had a CAT scan and it was clear. Perhaps I am finally done???? Two surgeries, 30 months of on again off again Chemo and just maybe I beat the cancer.

Wish me well. I am elated and hope that my future scans remain clear. I guess it is a 2-year mark from surgery before I will be considered really done. June 11, 2012 cannot come soon enough.

To those still in the fight, I wish you well and assure you there is always hope.

Regards,

Mike

    Hi Buddy......
    I remember when you came in here...about the same time as VickiCo, and Mike49, and I was right before. You have been through a grueling journey with this mess...I hope that your ride is over. I also wish for you peace, and a life of love with your spouse...You have come through a terrible journey not completely unscathed but still standing tall, and I applaud your fight and battle won with this. You certainly deserve it my friend...remember the rope......Love to you and yours.......Clift
