After being Dx about a year ago, I found this forum to be of invaluable assistance, support and knowledge. I owe many of you my thanks,though not addressing me directly, your courage, success stories, and unfortunate bad news all helped me understand this monster.
My journey has taken a bit of a twist, now Dx with mets to the liver. I thought it might be about time to become active, and provide what assistance to others that I found so helpful in the past. Took almost a year for this first post, looking forward to many more years of such.
Keep on swinging!
