I’m a Survivor!
by: Laurie
on Mon, May 05 2008
I was diagnosed with NHL in August 2005. I found a lump in my neck. My family doc told me it wasn’t cancer just a thyroid problem. The specialist he sent me to immediately knew what it was, I thank God for placing this man in my path. By then it had also spread to my stomach. I went thru 6 rounds of chemo Today I still remain cancer free, my last Pet scan was good Friday. I’m at 28 months now. Live every day to the fullest.Tell those you love every chance you get. None uf us really know when God will take us- make sure you know where you’re going. If I can encourage someone please contact me.
