I have heard from my doctors that given my type and stage of cancer that they quote a "30 to 50% chance of surviving 2 to 5years".

When considering this as a potential reality I am familiar with the concept that these tables are averages and that everyone is different. But, how do you interpret those numbers?

That there is only a 30% chance of surviving more than 2 years. And at best, a 50% chance of surviving 5 years or more? confused
