Congratulations to all of you for making this important milestone! I am only about 18 months out, and trying not to agonize over the time- just keeping very busy with work and the kids and trying to keep my mind off of it all. I am happy to say that the "fog" from treatment has finally lifted, and for the first time since dx, feeling like my old self (as much as that's possible!) again. Markers and scans in Dec., so I'm praying for the best!
Love, Kelly
