Re: 12 Years and Stage IV - No sign of my cancer

Hi StephN,

Looking forward to many more, and I'm with you as a stage I NED.

I've always wished that a trial would be designed around those who have been in remission for very long times, to find out what our characteristics are, to use to tease out histories and physical aspects that could be helpful to others. Any chance any oncs/researchers might be willing to take that challenge on?

A.A.
