It isn't apparent like a broken bone...

Maybe the public will finally get it...'you look healthy!' to which I respond..."follow me to the bathroom!"

    We look so good
    Kathie,
    I read the article. I too looked so good before my diagnosis of Stage 3 cc with no symptoms but after finishing Folfox I am feeling the effects of neuropathy. We need to keep our elected representatives informed on the latest research so we keep our medical benefits and more monies for cancer research.
