CONGRATULATIONS! It is so wonderful to hear a positive outcome.

A friend just died recently from breast cancer and she was 30 years old.

May you live a long and very happy life!

Thank you so much......last year I have started to give back so to speak. I was guest survivor speaker at our Relay for Life and spoke this week at a release of new cancer findings. Nova Scotia has the highest rates of cancer in Canada, so lots of money is sent this way to Dalhousie University, who are making huge advances.:cheer2:

Congratulations! ((hugs)), and best wishes! My 14 year old son is a leukemia survivor, (11 years in remission). It is an awesome feeling. It never leaves you, but you go on and you will lead a full and wonderful life.

......and are you from the Valley be any chance?

Yes M'am! :) And you? I'm wracking my brain now to think if I should know you and feeling a little guilty if I don't because I would have liked to have supported you through all this!

Starting to look like there might be enough Nova Scotians on the Podcast board to have a meet! Yes, I believe three could constitute a mini-meet :rotfl:

LOL :rotfl2:Sorry about that! I've been surprised on here before by folks that I didn't know were just as addicted to the DIS as I am and yet had a connection to me we never realized. Six degress of seperation type stuff!

Oooh, Lower Sackville here too!

You'll both have to head down here this fall for apples! We have a U-Pick....or come for Strawberries or Raspberries this summer....a Dis Meet in the field!

This is WONDERFUL!!!!! Congratulations!!!:banana::banana::banana:

I know how important those milestones are. My DD now 6yo is a Neuroblastoma survivor. I have never been happier than on her 5 year cancer-free milestone. 5 years is BIG for Neuroblastoma.

She still goes once a year for an annual check-up, which oddly enough is this Thursday.

Wishing you a long and healthy life!!!!!!
