6 yr. Adrenal Cancer Survivor

at 45 yrs old i had a kidney stone (4th occurence) at which time the Drs. discovered a growth on my adrenal gland…after having an adrenalectomy I got a diagnosis of adrenal cancer 1st stage, encapsulated.…very lucky….it has been over 5 yrs cancer free. I never thought i would sing the praises of kidney stones but I am a firm believer that early detection is the key to survival, next week I will celebrate my 51st b-day and I am cancer free, and my Dr. says i am cured, but still wants to see me on a 9month basis, no problem…
