Hello @pammyt

I appreciate you sharing your story. As @auntieoakley said we are never really free from cancer. I look at cancer as a chronic condition. I had my first surgery in 2003 then the second was in 2005. I had rechecks every year after that until 2012 when very reputable doctors said it was highly unlikely for a return. In 2016, another problem occurred that required some examination. I requested they do the test that originally diagnosed the cancer. That is when the third lesion was found. From that I learned the importance of advocating for yourself. I certainly wish you all throw best as you deal with bone METS. How are you feeling now?

@hopeful33250 , Hi I am doing ok, The summer was difficult because I lost my husband unexpectedly to esophageal cancer. He was my rock and he was gone within 4 months of discovering he had cancer. I'm staying strong. Hope you are doing well,
