One year ago today, my husband had his surgery to become cancer free. It's been a long year with lots of changes but we made it!

    Birdyqueen,
    WOW Congrats and that is amazing, really. I am moved in two ways!

    a Little STRANGE to read for me from the perspective of Stage IVb, don't mean to be a Debbie downer but that one hit me, after loosing Lee. A year is a long time now, and I am SO happy you did it, you are a year AND I assume NED? I want to be here in a year!

    I love you; just had to say it...

    Love,
    Eric

    Great news!
    Thanks for sharing your anniversary with us. I know that a year ago, you were both in a very tough spot and I'm sure it has to be wonderful to look backwards at what is now a memory. I'm sure this experience has changed your lives and I know you will enjoy all the anniversaries that follow even more because of this one.
    Hugs

    Congratulations to you and your husband, birdiequeen. I know how terrified we were going into surgery in Sept. I can't wait to see how wonderful 1 year later feels!

    Again, congratulations!
