Well guys,

I had my year 4 colonoscopy yesterday and my colon was CLEAN.  No pre-cancer cells or pre-cancerous polyps like years 2 and 3.  He said my colon was beautiful!

My gastro doctor was over the moon happy for me.

So at this point I can say I WAS s a stage 3b signet cell NOW I am a 4 year NED colon cancer survivor.

He said my next colonoscopy should be 3 years.... now we all know I will probably request in 2 years.

My CEA also has remained under 1.0.

So all the crazy things I do (Organic only, no red meats, exercise, try to reduce stress, focus on things I love to do) I believe really helped.

My hope is my good news will help someone else and maybe brighten their day.  I remember early in my treatment I would love to read others good news.  It gave me a goal.

I send my best thoughts to all.

    So 2 for 2

    Sue,

    So you will be TWO - 2 Two - 2.

    That will become your new favorite number, until "3" comes along......
