He emailed me back right away again! I told him i was 17 months out with 34 pos nodes. He said:
This is good. Think of it this way, the fact that the disease has not recurred trumps the initial poor prognosis. Every month that your're disease free is another trump. If you can make it to 3 years or so without a recurrence, you'll have erased the 34 pos nodes!"
Wow, I needed that! I'm crossing my fingers i can make the 3 year mark. And for you that have, celebrate
