After reading all the stories of folks who have been waging this war for years and years, my news seems small and insignificant in comparison.... but I'M still proud of it.

Had my FIRST 3 month checkup Thursday, and got the test results back yesterday... BLOODWORK CAME BACK GOOD!! My family and I were tickled, and just wanted to share a smile :D

    good!
    Hello,

    It is definitely good news that the bloodwork came back good. That means your body is pretty strong and able to tolerate all that is being put into it. That's huge in being able to continue on w/ the chemo.
    Fight on!!

    No good news is ever small
    So many here have battled for years and some are new. Some have stage 1 disease, some stage 4. Some have had every treatment available and some are just starting their first experience of chemo or radiotherapy.

    No one person's battle is bigger or smaller, more or less important, more or less worth writing about on here, than any others. Your news fills me pleasure that there are parts of this fight won and lost by each of us everyday, but one that give up.

    Thanks you,
    steve
