I am stage 4 braf with distant lymph nodes. I had 11 folfoxiri treatments, surgery on the primary and distant lymph nodes. Still NED 2 years after surgery. Just had a clean CT scan today. Living the life. Heading to Costa Rica, Europe, Mexico… appreciating every day.

2.5 years ago I was thinking my life is over. Both kids in high school. Now 1st is studying for her Mcat as a junior in college. 2nd is graduating and heading to study aviation to be a pilot. So excited I was able to be here for them. I am back at work, working out daily and traveling. Already made executive platinum since March. Living every day to the fullest.

Keep pressing forward .
Love reading your post .

My mum took your approach and stayed active in all our lives . Her grand children were in primary school when this all started . One working the rest at uni . They all adore her and she has had a great decade .

Your children sound as though they are doing so well . They will be delighted you are part of this chapter in their lives and here’s to many more .
Keep enjoying the good times .
