That is great news. Time to celebrate!!!!!
I'm not certain I would be comfortable with checkups only every 6 months, especially since you already had a reoccurence. I'm 3+ years out on my second occurance and 7+ on the first and still see my surgeon/oncologist every 3 months. I'd be eating lunch in that cafeteria every 3 months if I were you.
Here's hoping all future checkups have the same results.
Take care,
Eileen

Now you can take a deep breath. Please pray for me now because I'm flying out of Chicago on Monday for my appointment at Mayos on Tuesday. I'm really scared that I going to get bad news. I'm so glad to see that so many people are so supportive. Just knowing that there are people out there who know how I feeling means alot.
