It is officially 3 years today since my diagnosis for this cancer. I am so grateful to the doctors who treated me and for everyone that helped me through treatments. I found this site after my treatments were over, but when I needed support the most. I am still battling another cancer, but I am very optimistic that I am cured of AC! I sure hope so. It was the night before Thanksgiving, 3 years ago tonight! God is good!

    Congratulations on hitting the 3 year mark!  Your gratitude is quite evident and your optimism makes me smile.  You are a true survivor!  I can't speak for anyone but myself on this board, but I truly appreciate your input here.  While all of us would prefer to not have had a reason to seek out this site, we are truly fortunate to have it and all the good people on it, including you.  I wish you NED on the anal cancer and hope that your other cancer will soon have a cure.  May God bless!

    Dear Mary,

    As hard as it is we have so much else to be so thankful for. We have our kids, our lives, friends, peace around us and a turkey in the oven stuffed happy.

    Everything's gonna be all right.

    Congratulations Mary! I realise that there are other issues on the back burner, but yay! 3 years on from your original diagnosis. 3 bonus years of being there for your daughter too. Wishing you many more
