Re: Progression rates from stage IIIC to stage IV?
Marcia,
I do not think cancer will dare darken your door again. With that million dollar smile of yours you can light up the darkness and radiate that nasty cancer away. Just keep smiling and try to live each day. Cancer has changed us all for the better. Oh, maybe not our bodies, but our souls are kinder, out hearts bigger, our spirits gentler. Stats smats.....!
