It's my birthday today. I just want to say I got the crappiest or no presents from my family and friends. Last year I got gold and diamond necklaces, new makeup, an entire new wardrobe, perfume, chocolate...you name it I got it. The difference is I was diagnosed just before my birthday last year and now that I am NED I back to the regular crap of being ignored. I hope this happens EVERY BIRTHDAY! :D :D :D

My birthday is July 17 and I am turning 36. Last year on my birthday I drove an hour north to meet the surgeon who would perform my colon resection surgery the next week. My spouse and I really liked the surgeon and left feeling very confident in her abilities - best present I could have asked for given the situation.

Happy birthday to all the other folks with July birthdays!
