@kandisn are you still in the middle of treatment?

After treatment, most of us put cancer on the back burner. I don't like the term "survivor" because we never know what the future holds. But it is possible to mostly forget about it while remaining vigilant for recurrence.

I am 10 years out knock on wood. During my cancer treatment I would not have expected to do so well. Recurrence rates are way down, my doctor said. Current treatments are pretty effective and do less harm to us than treatments 20 years ago.
