Thank you for all of your kind replies.

I think there is usually so much sadness involved around Stage 4 DX. And maybe the ones that are surviving are getting on with life and we don't hear about the success stories.

I am a long way off from being Ok. The head noise is hard. It is hard to relax and still not think that the monster will come back.

But I feel that I am living more than dying now. If that makes sense.
