1 year CK anniversary
« on: September 30, 2009, 01:58:36 pm »
Tomorrow is my 1 year post CK anniversary. Happy to be at this point. Thanks to all who have given me such good advice and support. I am not a regular here, but if I can help anyone PLEASE feel free to email me or call... I will put my number on the call list. I don't have my next MRI until January, but the July one showed slight shrinkage and some necrosis. I am definitely CELEBRATING!!!!!
Hugs to you all,
Sher

Hi, Sher ~

Congratulations on achieving your one-year ANniversary!  Necrosis and shrinkage are definitely worth celebrating!  :)

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.
