Re: I Need a Pep Talk...Very Discouraged Today

Denise,

The numbers you were given are not written in stone, many people go on and don't recurr so why not you???

Personally I dont look at stats and truely believe the saying we are all individuals and if I do recurr I'll worry about it then!
I'm six years out now and so far so good, it may not last forever but today I'm cancer free and refuse to worry about it
Take one day at a time and simply accept it may happen, but there's gurantee it will!!!
