Yes, lauren, "be here now" is a good thing to put into our heads. That was one from the 60's that easily plugs in for me! Today is here, and I have more than enough to do.
The main thing to remember is that many of us are writing new chapters to whaat they will use as "prognosis" in the near future. The number of the national census is never up-to-date, as are most stats, cancer survival included. For this reason many docs don't put too much stock in them with the new drugs and clinical trials.
I have a friend who is fighting a new recurrance and she says she was given a 60% chance for her treatment to get her to NED. I told her to not let that get her down (it did) and try to boost that figure by being another one to get to remission.
