Smile Thank You!

I just got back from my follow up of the follow up mammogram and was told "Come back in a year"! Sweetest words I've heard in a long time. It may be raining, but its a BEAUTIFUL day to me (and I hope all of you are having a good day as well. Thank you SO much for the support, input and reassurance. I was telling my mom today that it's sad that this board has so many Stage 4 women, but its ENCOURAGING when I hear how well so many of you are doing that "if" (not that its going to ever happen, was Stage 1, no node and am getting Herceptin for at LEAST 1 year...spring will tell more) I were to go to Stage 4, it is not necessarily a death sentence...more of an inconvenience. You Stage 4 were the road pavers for us early stagers and now we are the road pavers for the "newbies". Have a great day, I have to get back to my Christmas music (2 of the radio stations started playing last Thurs) and we're supposed to get snow tonight (Yes, I'm one of those SICKIES)

Great news Rhonda. We've all been there when all we think is gloom and doom. Its human nature. I'm glad all is well with you.


Peace
