Hi Sher!
Congratulations on completing your CK treatment!!!  It sounds like you and your hubby are off to a good start celebrating the beginning of the end of your AN.  I hope it dies a fairly quiet death and doesn't bother you too much.

Wishing you all good things,
Wendy

Sher:

Let me add my congratulations for your successful completion of the CK treatment protocol.  I hope (and will pray) that the swelling is minimal and that your AN is now on 'death row' with a one-way ticket to oblivion.  :)

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.
