I received the results of my second 3 month CT-scan and blood tests. Along with a one year colonscopy and I am still NED. Most of the side effects have gone Hand and foot syndrome; blood counts are back to normal; still some occasional bowel problems and finger soreness. I had radiation with chemo then surgery. I did not have to take the chemo after surgery either and it became the hardest thing that I ever did. But when I learned it would increase my chances from 80% to 92% despite the extreme pain and sickness I looked at my family and decided whatever it takes. It at least for now worked for me.

Congrats!!! I'll beat KathiM to it! Happy Dance going on for you. I'm sure you and the family are doing the same. Great way to start the new year like the others said.
