    Don Wood got a reaction from Shercares in How long do you have to survive to be a Survivor?   
    I answered this one many months ago. I have a friend who says, "If you didn't die on the spot when you heard you had cancer, you are a survivor!" I can support that stance. However, my wife did not feel like a survivor until she reached a point where she felt well enough and was relatively clear of the beast -- which was about 9 months after diagnosis (also the time of survival she was given). So at the point she felt she had beat the odds, she felt well and she was relatively clear, she said she was then a survivor, and she has felt that way ever since. So, I would say that being a survivor is in the eye of the beholder. Don

    It gets better. If you are on a once every three week plan, then the third week usually is pretty good. Best to you. Don
