Dear Jean,
Many congratulations to you and thank you for your lovely post. You were the first person to send me a private message and you have helped me so much and given me such wonderful advice on so many occasions. Your approach to life at this point- not sweating the small or large stuff- is some of the best advice you could give us. I keep trying Jean and am slowly getting better- you have been an inspiration to me. Thank you for all you have done for me and everyone else on the site.
Love,
Karen

Jean,

Congratulations!! This is such fantastic news. I loved your story about the women in the scarf. I have taken a break from the forum, all the sad news was getting too much for me. I count you as one of my friends, hope that we can meet in person some day!!

Four more years to go before I join the 5 year club, but I WILL get there!

Re: 5 yrs. have past..
 

Congratulations, Jean! Your post was so inspiring! I was so touched by your story of the lady with the scarf and the compassion you felt for her because you understood. I am also sending my love and best wishes for many more years of "dancing with NED". No one else quite understands the elation and humility we feel after dreading the semiannual PET or CT scan as it approaches, and then being told we've "passed" for another year! I am so happy for you! Hugs, Tricia

Re: 5 yrs. have past..
