Amy P Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 I have been debating on when to post this as neither Mom nor I can remember her dx date, all we remember is that she was dx in late January had her surgery just after Valentine's Day and we only remember that because my daughter had just learned to cut out paper hearts and we filled her room with them. Anyway, sometime in last couple of weeks, Mom officially became a 5 year survivor. In March it will be 2 years since her recurrance (sp?)and all in all she is doing pretty darn good. The Iressa still continues to keep her stable and also keep in mind that she has been on a 1/2 dose of Iressa for well over a year. In fact, my Dad's health is now where we are focusing our energies (he is having all sorts of fun things happen). I think my luckly stars that I found this website a year and half ago. It was only through this site that I was able to get hope after the beast came back. I pray for you all daily and read a couple of times a day - just because you don't see my name doesn't mean I am not here You all are an amazing group of people. Much Love to ALL OF YOU!!!!!
