This is my first posting to the CR Cancer Discussion group but I had to share my anniversary with people who get it. I was very lucky with my colon cancer - 4 years ago today I had a subtotal colectomy and have been colon cancer free since then.

Tomorrow will be my 1 year anniversay of my Breast Cancer dx.... when do I get to start counting that one?
Thanks for being out there. I think this network is great.

    Th Br Ca is also a primary - not so lucky on that one - Stage 3C with 22 positive nodes - I'm finished with treatment and have my first PET/CT scan in a few weeks. I really believe they got the breast cancer, but I am a little nervous because I have multiple lung nodules (which is really why I'm having the scan) and a strong family history of young lung cancer. I'll keep you posted
