If I listened every time some chart or doctor said I had just so long to live...Honey PLEASE don't waste your time or energy on such a stupid number. I am 8 1/2 years out from Stage IV Inflammatory Breast cancer (the worst of the worst). After 4 years (that I didn't have according to them), I had a relapse that went to my lungs and liver...not much time left according to "them" again. Well, I beat it, got leukemia and had even less time. Had the bone marrow transplant, and that was a year and a half ago. I have since had to liver "failures" that didn't leave me much time either...but I am still here and doing better than ever.
