15 months

Just got results from my 15 month scan last Monday. Bloodwork getting better (liver enzymes) and my scan was clear. My oncologist said that 2 years was a good marker so I look forward to that (hopefully clean scan) but that 14 months was the median for those that recur in the first 2 years. So, I keep taking one day at a time but I am very grateful and humbled to have had clean scans for 15 months given my original diagnosis.

I spent the weekend hosting our daughter's 4th birthday party and today we had my niece's bridal shower at our home. I have been blessed in many ways but the greatest blessing I have is my family and I treasure every day with them.

    That's the news
    we like to hear. Continued success in your remission. Don't pay attention to the statistics, they will only make your worry and be anxious. Just keep up your appointments and do everything they tell you to do and keep yourself as healthy as possible.

    Take care - Tina

    Wow
    You outlook on life is truly inspiring. You have the most beautiful picture of your daughter here and it is really a blessing to have our family. (Now I wish I had a third child). You have made it to the 15 month with clean scans! Fantastic.

    Hi Amy:)
    You're heading for the first big marker with the liver - I'm 2.5 years out of the liver and so far so good...the more miles we can get out of this thing, the better:)

    So glad your results were good - very heartwarming to read about your family life - that's what it's all about, sounds so very nice.

    You are indeed blessed:)

    -Craig
