Happy Dance

Postby llupp » Sat Sep 27, 2014 9:58 pm

Hubby scans came back all clear. He graduated to every 4 months instead of every 3 months. No enemy detected NED. Yesterday we dance in the back yard to celebrate. We don't know the future but we got today and I am grateful for each and every day. Thanks to all for listening to my ranting and questions I am sure at time a bother.
