Rhondat,

I know the impression you can get from reading the posts here is that everyone recurs, because we have so many members with mets that are posting. I think it is important to note that those with recurrences are overrepresented in our membership. Most of the people posting here are sharing information and support for primary therapy or for therapy for cancer that has progressed. There are many who have completed their initial treatments that are cancer free and no longer feel the need to connect with our community, and have moved on. So, it is less common to see early stage patients who have completed treatment and remain NED posting. That doesn't mean there isn't an army of them out there, waiting to induct you.

Best of luck to you,

Hopeful
