3 years NED

Cheryl,
While there are some things that I like about the site redesign, I find I'm not checking in as often as I did before the update. I'm not sure why. So I suspect others might be having the same issues as I do, since it seems that some of our more regular posters aren't here as often. So it may take more time for others to see your post and respond, especially those of us who remember when you were in the throes of treatment.
But as Theskinnyscot wrote, your NED news is definitely something to be savored. And your post encourages others newly diagnosed to know that even those with the more aggressive forms of uterine cancer can achieve long-term remission. Not everyone who is new feels comfortable posting responses – I know that I just read the posts for several months before I posted anything. But I certainly appreciated the existing collection of posts and the stories of those women who were continuing to thrive after their treatment. So we're grateful for your update.

I just came in and saw your post! CONGRATS! I am going to try to look at it again and see when you posted it. I usually catch e v e r y t h i n g when it's new, but I am struggling a little with the new set up, and wonder if I am missing anything? Hope not! I love it here.
And I'm delighted you are NED. Three years. Wow!
In the last six days, I spent the first four with two very young grandsons, one a screamer of three years old, and after the fourth exhausted day, drove to the hospital and sat for hours waiting for a CT scan. As soon as it was done, drove two hours to work, then drove back yesterday. I may have missed something... sigh.
SO CONGRATS, RIBBONS!!!!!!!!!!! Ribbons, confetti, and chocolate ice cream for all!

Thank you! I read about you trip to OHSU, that must have been an ordeal. I’m able to get my scan at our hospital here in Silverton, pretty easy. I also know what you mean about grandkids, my son’s 2 year old daughter wears me out but it’s the opposite with my daughters 2 babies, 3 month boy and 18 month girl, I can’t get enough of them! Lol

Congrats Cheryl! And thank you for posting your disappointment in us. I could have sworn I posted a response to you and have no explanation other than I'm sorry I didn't or it didn't post.. Anyway, three years is a big deal! Let's plan to keep dancing with Mr. Ned forever.
Like others have said, this new format is not easy to navigate. I really miss the old format and find myself not engaging as much as I used to.
Love and Hugs,
Cindi
