Hi,
It’s been a while since posting. I’m in my eleventh year now since a 2010 Stage 4 diagnosis. NED since 2011. Still I can’t believe I’m here but clearly I am. Why?...I do not know but I have seen both my children marry lovely people and am now expecting a first grandchild.
I prayed for five years and a counselor asked why not ten? That would be crazy and impossible, I responded. Well, guess it wasn’t impossible after all.
I no longer think of cancer every minute of every day but it’s always there and always will be to some extent. Kinda hate mentioning the NED thing for fear of jinxing myself. But it’s important to share, to know it’s possible to survive and enjoy life again.
My thoughts are never too far from this forum which was so important to me (a lifeline really) as I researched my treatment options and received support and knowledge from many here.
Many thanks.
Best to all,
NED
