Hi all,
I was so busy this week, I forgot to post...but the day was in my thoughts all day long. Thursday (July 28) was my TWO year cancerversary! I am so thankful that I can post this, and hope to experience many more cancerversaries!
Yay for all of us and our cancerversary years....How many years are you all out from diagnosis? I would like to celebrate not only mine, but everyone's survivor years!

    Congratulation Sybil! That's wonderful to hear.
