Dear Steph,
I am sooo happy for you. You've lead the way in so many regards. Each time you post and I read your signature I am encouraged. There is it is...a Stage IV survivor!!

Each step of the way I've seen you try new and different things to remain healthy. (mega doses of Vitamin D) It has obviously worked. I am sure that using your instincts along with the expertise of your Dr., this is the right decision for you.

I hope you are setting aside all those old cancer related items that are no longer necessary and build a big bonfire.

Please keep us posted as you remain an inspiration to so many of us!!

Lori
