in Head and Neck Cancer #1

Tomorrow( March 28th) will mark a year since I was diagnosed with cancer. I had an MRI yesterday and heard from my Dr this morning that it was completely normal. Praise God ! This year has been rough,  but I'm more thankful than ever for the ordinary now.

    four to go!

    congratulations on a clear scan.  Let's hope for continued great news for you.

    I too am at the one year mark, I was officially diagnosed March 28th when pathology came back positive for SCC.  I had a PET earlier this month and it still showed a hot spot, so I had a second neck dissection last Thursday.  The troublesome node tested negative though, so I'm a happy camper, albiet with a long string of staples along the side of my neck!  If I add some bolts, I'd have a pretty good Halloween costume.

    All the best!

    Great news!! Congrats!!

    This is great to hear!! Especially because your node was negative. I hope my dad's will also be (it was hot in January's first CT after treatment).

    So happy for you!! Enjoy now and relax!

    today's the day

    Meagan

    HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY to you and you also have NED.

    What a great milestone that first year is.

    And congrats on a clean scan.

    Life is good and hopefully getting better every day for you.  A lot of things got better for me after the first year mark.
