Anniversary

Today is my 5th  anniversary being NED. I hesitated to post because there is no reason I should be NED and others not. My every day begins with a prayer for everyone on this forum and those they love. I needed to post because all of you understand more than any one else.  Thank you for supporting me these last 5 years.

hugs,

CM

    Happy Anniversary!

    May there be many more 5's in your future!

    Good news is ALWAYS wanted and needed here.

    So many things with a cancer diagnosis and survival are still mysterious.

    So very glad that you are among those who are NED.

    Hugs,

    Marie who loves kitties

    Many congratulations!

    This is happy news indeed!

    Never feel bad about posting, as the positive posts are desperately needed. Can you imagine if the forum was just filled with threads about treatment, side effects, death. No, we need the good, we need it to lift our spirits. 

    May you have , five, five and five five more years ahead.

    Celebrate!

    Five years NED is really special and is something to celebrate.  As a stage I survivor, I just tell myself that my colon cancer was caught early because God has things for me to do here on earth.  Likewise, He has things for you to do.

    G'day CM

         Never ever feel guilty about being ned. None of us ever asked to get cancer. But we did. Some of us had better chances than others to survive. But it ain't neccessarily so. Que Sera ,what will be will be. You joined with us on this board and we share. We share good and bad. We comfort each other in the bad we celebrate the good. Well 5 years ned is good. Congratulations ,may there be many more. Ron.

    Wonderful

    That is wonderful news.  You should post great news like that for the fact it gives others hope and shows that there is the possibility of becoming NED.  It's time for you to celebrate.  Thanks for sharing your news.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. You are all 'the best'. I celebrated by spending a quiet day at a beautiful retreat house on the ocean. So filled with gratitude.  I am also full of prayers for everyone on this forum....we are united in hope.

    Hugs,
