update-tests
My ultrasounds and blood tests have come back very positively---that is to say--nothing--not a thing shows up on them!!!!!!!!!
I am so happy I could jump right across tha screen and give all yu guys a bear hug!!!!!!!
I am pleased to say that I have a doctor that is listening to me now."She" is now scheduling ultrasounds on a regular basis and bloods every 3 months.She is very happy with the surgeons/oncologists reports and is encouraged that the surgery/chemo has stopped the beast in its tracks.
She agrees with me that further colonoscopies should be done regularly--the first at 6 months and then 12 monthly rather than the previous doctors advice of every 2 years.
So guys--what can I say???Of course the beast will still be on my mind but I hope that these results may be of some encouragement to others here.
We both thank you all from the very bottom of our hearts----I know that I have said it before--but who cares--we REALLY mean it!!!!
luv n huggs to all--kanga n Jen
BTW--kanga ain't leavin his friends--am still comin here--still got lotsa luv to give!

Kanga and Jen,
This is the best news and I am sooooooo happy for you both. I know what a relief it is. I too am staying on this site with this wonderful group, even though I finished treatment and tests are coming back good. If we can offer any answers, encouragment and/or prayers to anyone going through this diagnosis and treatment we'll be here for sure.
Stay in touch and enjoy your "new" life!
Fondly,
