Thank you all for your support and kind words.
In answer to the question about altering my lifestyle I have to admit I haven't. Always been inconsistent in exercise and diet.....I like a steak now and then, love my red wine, and don't hit the gym as often as recommended. But I also love fresh fish, playing with my children and laughing with my friends.
Maybe those are counter balances....I don't know.
It's what feels right for me.
Big hugs from California~

your good news
Thank you for sharing your good news! I was diagnosed with stage 3 September 2011, did xeloda and radiation, surgery and xeloda again. Finished treatment Sept 2012. What a year but last CT and PET were clear. I plan to enjoy everyday, every minute, every second. I am counting my blessings and hope to someday be able to post good news as you have.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING!0 -
I'm gearing up for my surgery
I'm gearing up for my surgery which is in a month and some nights I'm up until 3am (like tonight). I'm clinging to posts like this. I am trying to think good thoughts but the nagging stage I to stage III in just 9 weeks but we're not sure if it was there or wasn't or what will be or what will not be takes its toll. It's amazing how much of this is a guessing game even to doctors who deal with this all the time. Thanks for the post, it's very encouraging!!!
