I am cancer free 15 months now. Had ampullary cancer stage 3. Pretty much normal again. I read some encouraging info about ampullary cancer on the Pan can website regarding recurrence.
The main thing I learned.. live fully each day and try not to dwell on what might happen. Relationships were always important to me but even more so now. Many asked me what would be things I would want to do... you know.. like some say .."I want to jump from a plane, go here or there".
For me.. I wanted to get back in touch with some friends that I lost touch with and get closer to my family. Of course I have taken a few trips.. but not out of the USA. I have no desire to sky dive or bull ride. However, I do think Tim McGraw's song, "Live like you were dying" is quite applicable.
Keep positive as possible and realize there will be days when you feel a bit down about things. It passes.
Best to all of you.
