Clear colonoscopy...I go every 3 years now!
This seems like such a milestone and one I'm so grateful to have reached!! I will be cancer free for an entire year at the end of this month. I have another CT/labs at the beginning of September. I'm fine with going every 3 months, I like my oncologist a lot.
Hope you are all doing well!

Re: Clear colonoscopy...I go every 3 years now!
Awesome news Amy!
I did not mind going every 3 months either. Now I am at 6 month intervals and talk of yearly if nothing shows up on the next scans in December.
What does your onc suggest for long term follow up?
Dave
We also started cross country this week. I was wondering if your daughter is out again this year?

Hey Dave!
We lost our high school coach to another district. I know one of our track coaches is trying to keep the team going, but communication has been lacking. We're doing school online and there's been nothing about getting her to campus in the mornings for before school practice. No idea how meets will be held safely.
But my runner wants to run, so we're going to work with whatever they give us!
She's a sophomore and I really don't want her to miss a season if we can help it. Gotta keep everyone healthy though. Has your district looked in to virtual meets? That seems like it might be a decent option. Better than nothing anyway!
Good luck this season!!

Re: Clear colonoscopy...I go every 3 years now!
It is a strange time for sports!
In MN we are limited to only local meets and duals or triangulars. I have a very large team so following the protocols to keep everyone safe has been a challenge but glad we can compete.
Bummer on losing your coach. I have a new assistant that is a 2:20 marathoner so I let him run with the varsity. Not that I couldn’t
