Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | Actually, I haven't been cancer free for a year. It was a year since I was told I was cancer free and it came back in about 2 months, that is if I was cured for such a short time. This was months before the rads, chemo and seed implants. The implants happened on the 29th of Jan . I have been pronounced cancer free for the past4 or 5 months tho, LOL So that counts big time.
Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.
