Nice to hear good news. Sounds like you have the correct attitude!!! I plan on being around awhile myself. Only three months post rad and going on 7 months post surgery. Are you having scans every so often and if so what type of scans.
Thanks for sharing, Dan

Im going to see my surgeon Feb 12 maby then he will book a scan. sundance Compared to the radiation and chemo, the surgery is a snap:) keep a positive attitude.I was back to a full time job 8 weeks after surgery. It only gets better from now on..Good Luck and God Bless Ray
