Re: Positive stories, please come out of the woods

Hope I can help someone. I usually don't post but I too have been saddened by so many losses on this site. So many wonderful men and women. I was diagnosed Stage IIIA in March of 2006. I am coming up on 4 years and am so grateful. I still do worry about the cancer returning but I try to just give it to God. My mother who was 86 passed away last Thanksgiving. She was so worried about me and the cancer coming back. She was diagnosed with gall bladder cancer in October and died a month later. By the time they found her cancer it had spread all over. The doctors said she probably had it for several years. So we never know. I just try to take one day at a time. This site has been such a blessing to me through the years. I hope this gives encouragement to others!!
