Re: 15 year anniversary clean!

Great news.

Just curious why you still getting scans and bloodwork after 15 years.
All I can look forward to is scopes every five years.

Re: Within the Family

Alex When I went through my journey, I found that cancer makes people very uncomfortable. Everyone tries to be supportive and say the right things, but cancer is always the elephant in the room.
