in Colorectal Cancer #1
I just got the call and the results continue to show no evidence of disease. I was sweating the last few weeks. I pretty much talked my brain into believing I would get bad news. Wow what a load off the back.So I guess thats officially one year NED.
When I read of the suffering that goes on hear I almost feel guilty sharing this news but I also know its important to share the battles that are won in this fight.
And I sure do have the battle scars to prove it.
Not a day goes by without constant pain..feet,hips lower back. But I'll take it if I can hang out on this side of the dirt for awhile longer.
God Bless you all,
Tom

    good news is VERY IMPORTANT to share
    Congratulations on your good news and THANK YOU for sharing it!

    I'm still not fully diagnosed yet. I'm facing another surgery on Friday (Lung Resection) and if the nodule turns out to be a met of the colorectal cancer than I will officially be Stage IV. And good news is something important for me to hear! This gives me hope that I can survive this disease... Thank you for sharing it!

    Did That happy NAKED dance last night!!
    The naked dance just isnt the same with the colostomy bag but did it anyway haha! Thank you all for your kind words this place is so full of love and acceptance. When I was home and in bed recovering from various stages of treatment (radiation, chemo. surgery, more chemo)I looked for hope and encouragment from this board and found plenty of it. When my Dad passed April 2011 everyone here touched my heart in a very special way that I couldnt find anywhere else. I dont post very often but I do lurk around here and see whats happening. In just the past couple of years since I have been visiting this CSN site we have lost quite a few friends and gained so many more. So much pain the nasty disease causes in peoples lives it sometimes unbearable. But there is hope I am living proof.
    God Bless.. Tom
