To give a little encouragement
Just wanted to give a little encouragement to all my stage IV sisters here and to others. I just got back the results of my yearly PET/CT scans today and they are still clear!!! I remember coming to this board 8 years ago, scared to death and was absolutely sure I only had months left. I remember reading stories of stage IV survivors that were still doing well after years and was so encouraged and inspired by them and I remember hoping that one day, I could live to be an inspiration to others. It is hard to believe that this much time has passed, I have had no reoccurance since my first round of chemo and life is wonderful. With God all things are possible....sherryg
