As of September 2007, I wll be NED for four years. I know that this was not your specific request but I hope it gives you a little something to take with you and remeber ALL things are truly possible.
Thank you to each of you for your thoughts and prayers. Know that I am grateful. I do trust that the surgery will be unremarkable and given time I will heal. Most importantly, I trust that God has his arms wrapped tightly around me and will keep me safe and well. In health and happiness, embrace and...
I recently forwarded an email I received to Molly. Out of no where, a woman sent me an email saying she remembered me from a flight I took to St. Louis late July last year and read my story on the Colondar. Wondering....How do people find you? The only way this woman could have known my name is that...
To my friends at the Colon Club, I would like to begin by saying I am sorry that I have not been as available as I have in the past to help some of you through your new and existing journeys. My plate as of late has been incredibly messy and full. With work, school, my snickerdoodle, and pending div...

Oh can I appreciate what you are feeling. In December 2006, I had a cyst on my right ovary just over 2 cm and recent ultrasound findings show that growth now measures over 8 cm. I feel blessed that the growth/cyst did not light up on the petscan. Thank goodness. My case was reviewed by the cancer co...
Paula, After one is dx with cancer, your life will never be the way you once knew prior to your dx. So, you will find a new normal. It is my hope that it will be full, rich and that you find yourself feeling "more whole." I encourage you to appreciate every moment of every day and take time to smell...
NED is an acrynym for no evidence of disease. Symantics at its finest. As a stage IV survivor, traditionally stage IV disease is not curable so this NED is used in exchange for remission or no evidence of metastatic disease. I have been NED for over 3 and a half years and grateful every minute of my...
It is with much sadness to write that Courtney at the tender age of 18 passed away peacefully holding each of her parents hands two weeks ago. Courtney enjoyed a peaceful holiday in Hawaii with her family a week or so before she passed. I trust that Courtney will be with her family all the days of t...
