    You are not bragging. You are
    You are not bragging. You are giving newbies like me (diagnosed a month ago) hope. When the surgeon told me I had colon cancer w/mets to my liver, I asked if it was curable. He said no, and gave me statistics. It wasn't until I started with the oncologist that I began to have some hope, that this was "treatable."
