When things are going well, people often don't want to be reminded of the cancer fight. They go back to living their busy lives and leave the boards behind. It is important for the people fighting to hear the positive stories to maintain hope in the battle. Thanks for sharing your good news.
Pat doesn't read the boards, but we talk about it and he knows who people are and what they are facing at any given point in time. I often feel nervous when people come out from surgery and start back to life as if nothing has happened. He reminded me yesterday that our oncologist told him near the beginning that the people who she sees making it are the ones who really make changes in their lives once they are well. Of course there are always exceptions, but I thought I would pass that on since I had all but forgotten her saying it.
