in Colorectal Cancer #1

I have been lurking on an off for the last few years, but something always draws me back to check in.  For those who don't know me or remember me, I was DX with Stage II Colon Cancer back in 2006 (8 years; boy time flys); went through treatments, surgeries, etc., and had my last yearly CT Scan in March 2014 and still NED (clear) Cool  My Onc indicated that I can now have CT scans every 2 years, but visit him every yearly.  I have my colon scope on May 16, oh what fun Yell; that damn prep.

 

My main reason for visiting today was to again thank everyone who helped me through my ordeal and grounded me during my journey.  If it was not for this family, I would not have gotten through the battle as easily as I did.

 

I hope all the old timers are doing well and all the new timers find support, advice & guidance.
