Hi friends, just dropping in to say this month will mark 12 years since my liver resection at Johns Hopkins. That day I went from Stage 4 cc patient to NEDville. If you're in the mood, celebrate with me! Amy (strange ranger)
Hi everybody, I was diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer (sigmoid colon with liver met) at age 58. Was clear at age 59. Tomorrow I will turn 70! I can not tell you how grateful I am. I'm still a strange ranger and my name is Amy Marash.
Yes I've been a guest on some radio programs and podcasts. I don't do that anymore because I'm blessedly out of touch. (don't jinx!) My husband is the radio professional in the family.

Nutritionist helped me keep from fading away, tai chi instructor provided restorative Sundays. My kids were brave, and seemed to b...
Feel free to list it or not, if it's appropriate. My cartoon page, http://www.cancerIsSoFunny began in 2010. It went dormant when I lost my blogger login and password, but it's still online. It's my visual representation of cancer, starring Rage, Fear, Love and power. Okay, not much power, more like...
