Congratulations Sheila! I am so thankful to have such role models!

Cheers Sheila!!

Congrats as this is a great ahievement. Can't wait for another 6 years when you give us your 10 year post. I'm sure your little granddaughter is just as happy as you are.

Put a Big Red X
 
on your calendar to mark the date. Or whatever floats your boat.
I tend to silently mark those days of my diagnosis anniversary, as the day I got off my chemos for mets is a much more important day for me. That comes near midsummer when I feel like celebrating the season of growth and beauty anyway.

I know the red wine will do you some good, so here's a SANTE to You!
Al is right about little Jasmine and your others who benefit so much from a healthy Mom/grandma.

P.S. Thought you might be rip-roaring around on that Harley!

Sheila that is great news. I love to see that many of us are living without progression for many years!!

I pray for many more years ahead of you!!

Today is my 4 year diagnosis of breast cancer....way back then, I was Stage 1....I have been Stage IV since 9/2003....2 1/2 years, and even with that, I am thankful for Herceptin, the support here and life itself.....and feeling great!!!!!!

Tami 02-22-2006 06:41 PM

Here's to many many more years ahead.

Best

In another 6 or 7 weeks, will mark the 2 year aniversary when my Linda, with raging liver mets, was given only 2 weeks to live.


who was it that said, "accept the diagnosis but not the prognosis"??

You are a powerful healer for Linda, she is lucky....and you have given her the will to beat the odds...I love to prove a Dr wrong...must be the nurse in me!!!!

Kim in CA 02-23-2006 09:07 PM

Sheila,

Sorry I'm a day late, but I'll drink a toast to you tonight! And a big toast to Joe and Christine, and of course good ol Herceptin!

Love, Kim
