I add my thanks for sharing that news with us. Hubby Bart will be two years cancer free at the end of the month. I qualify that because he has a node in his neck the docs are watching, though his "Doctor Doom" ENT doesn't think it's cancer and it's had no uptake on the last PET. God bless you and keep you cancer-free.  diane lovingspouse4 Tue, 13 Sep 2011 00:00:00 GMT Thks for your sharing of 5 years .

That is great news!  Congratulations and thanks for sharing it with us!  DianeinCali Wed, 24 Aug 2011 00:00:00 GMT Hi pcn17, what wonderful news, can't wait until hubby reaches that 5 yr mark.  Thank you for the hope  bvan1   bvan1 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 00:00:00 GMT Hello dear friends, it's been a while I've posted. Well, I made it to my 5 year check up and Cancer Free!!! Had my PET done in May, which I said was not going to do, but since I had also had a motorcycle accident, that month went to get checked, trying to learn to drive, had hubby on the back (bad mistake) but tried anyway. I gunned it too hard, was turning left and husband was LEANING right, so there I go into the telephone pole and fence out in the country. Thanks to God after all above I ended up showing a shadow on the right lung, turns out to have been a bruse and it healed. So I am clear on the cancer, broke my wrist, strained my shoulder, elbow, arm. Still have all the problems as before, mucous, dry mouth, jaw hurting, ears hurting. All in all have gained 5 lbs since diagnosed. Neck disection hurts on occasion, tightness, so still on pain meds, muscle relaxers, still take pink magic, rince in baking soda, but doing much better. I've just accepted this is the new life and very grateful to be here! Hope all are having a much more peaceful life these days and those who are new....God Bless, Faith, Hope and Love to you! Give the Lord time to work with you after all you have been through, be kind, nice, to yourself! Thanks to all who have shared so much of their lives with us as well! God Bless Patricia p.s. Dave, Pop-Pop, Steph, etc. thank you for all the information you have given me!!!!  Love & Warm Hugz pcn17 Tue, 23 Aug 2011 00:00:00 GMT
