Topic: 5 Years Cancer Free

Just wanted to share some wonderful news.  My husband Ron just received a great report on his five year check up.  He continues to be cancer free and healthy.  He now will only be going for a yearly check-up.  I still have back flashes when we were told by two very well renown medical hospitals to go home and get our finances in order because he had less than six months to live because his cancer was inoperable.  Getting several opinions is a MUST!!!  I keep everyone on this website in my prayers.

Hugs,
Nancy
