Happy Belated New Year/Stage IV survivor since 2011

Postby mymom » Thu Jan 23, 2020 1:55 pm

Hi all- Happy New Year! Just wanted to check in. Mom is doing scans now every six months. I believe May of last year was last check in. I had mentioned Hawaii. It was amazing. We went in August. My mother and my father both managed Mt. Kilauea and walking into different parts on our stops on the volcano to study the different lava flows. The kids loved it and so did we. Her scan in the fall was also clean. I don't think I posted that. Her next scan is the end of February. We think positive and are thankful she has been clean for some time (going on 4.5 years) after many ups and downs 2011-2015. She is enjoying life and her grand kids.

Thinking of you all
