Thank you for the reply and link. It would seem that reoccurrence rate is the same rate or less than getting breast cancer in your lifetime which is 12% ? I guess that is how I’m looking at it. Thank you so much !!

I looked at cancer that way too 😏. Someone posted once that she would be very scared by a 10% chance of getting breast and I thought to myself that 10% is better that the 1 in 8 odds that women already face in the U.S. for breast cancer over a lifetime. That's the elephant in the parlor...

A corporate recruiter friend used to say that, when one has a good job, the personal unemployment rate is 0% and when unemployed the personal unemployment rate is 100%. His point was, ignore (not deny, just don't focus on) the statistics that are scary when they're of no value personally and concentrate on the personal statistics one can improve and move forward either way.
