Re: Just sharing......
Hi Mary Jo. This is the other Mary Jo. I don't post much either but, like you, I check in regularly. I was diagnosed in 2005 so it's been 6 years since my treatment ended. Sometimes the painful time I went through feels so distant that I barely think about it. Other times I remember that life is fragile. (I don't even want to crush an ant any more.) As a survivor, I know I have to make the most of every second. I have been privileged to help my friend through her pancreatic cancer fight. She's finishing an immunotherapy clinical trial and has been NED for more than a year. I pray that Her2, pancreatic, ovarian and every other cancer will be eliminated SOON!
