I'm still here! 9 years, minus some stuff I didn't need, like appendix, gall bladder, some of my colon, a liver met. I always told myself that cancer didn't belong in me, so once I got rid of it, it would stay gone.
Cancer, you can't kill everybody. So there.
Posting my #cancerversary Aug 14 to encourage others.
