@frouke So true. I am coming up for 3 years in remission after hectic treatment for stage 4 appendix cancer. Last treatment was in May 2022. I am still closely surveilled and I still am very anxious in the days leading up to each rescan and until I’ve seen my oncologist to review my reports. Between scans I’m fine. I’m now scanned 6 monthly and life is now in 6 monthly instalments! I too take comfort from knowing that at least any change can be jumped on quickly.

@isadora2021 I felt so great in December when I go the all clear. I can relate to what you said about life being in 6 month installments. Maybe I need to accept that is how I need to look at things for now.
