I had a conversation with someone from the NCI today and a little gem of a statement just came out in the conversation that I thought I would pass along in respect to recurrence, and the psychological aspects of survivorship. It was this.... After treatment you may be declared cancer-free, but that does not mean you are free of your cancer......... I was trying to explain the issues of survivorship.
