Happy Belated Birthday!

I had so many questions and fears when I first received my diagnosis. It was on this site that I read of many successes to Stage 4 people like yourself and other stage 3ers. Until then I really only knew of those whose outcomes were not so good. Thanks so much to you and Joe for making this site possible, you are truly wonderful people.
