Greetings all:
For those of you who don't know me, I was dx with stage iv colon cancer with liver mets on Dec 17th, 2004. I have experienced everything there is to experience when it comes to this disease, chemo, colon resection, recurrence, liver surgery, and all the other not so fun things. Anyways, last July I found out that I was cancer free and today I found out that I'm still in remision:o)
For those of you who may be going through some difficult times, HANG IN THERE, it can and it does get better. I'm living proof.
Buster
