My brother is a scientist working on a vaccine for breast cancer. These sort of stories always make me think of him and the challenges everyone faces in your position. Congratulations.

My confirnation of being Cancer free came after 5 years of 6 monthly visits to the Hospital- Only to be be told- see you in 6 months. On the 5th year they actually stated that the C had not been present for 5 years so I was officially clear. We don't get it in writing over here- but just those words you are clear lifted a great big weight off my shoulders.

Congrats and get out on the bike and ride. Should be worth a couple of slices of PIE this time to celebrate.

Great news, congrats!

Congrats! Both my mother and mother in law are breast cancer survivors, and both over 90!

That is good news. Have a dram on me.

Cheers :beer: with diet root beer!

Very good news for certain.

Life is good!
We are both cancer survivors . . . we know the feeling!!!
Pedal on TWOgether!

I will drink a warm cherry Pepsi for you.

Congrats on your great news! I'm short on refreshing adult beverages right now, so I'll celebrate in your honor with a bike ride! :thumb:

What fantastic news. Thanks for sharing it.

Good for you!
In somewhat related news, my 28-year-old son is closing in on the 26th anniversary of his diagnosis with leukemia. One more reminder to have hope.

It's my belief that in the near future the treatment for those who get a cancer that they haven't created a vacine for will consist of a simple biopsy to get some of the cancer cells. Which are then sent off to a lab where the guys in white coats will generate a simple "antibody "treatment for your sepcific cancer.A week you'll show up a your G.P.'s office for an injection of the "antibody"treatment and see you later. However,Mother Nature being the person she is will have by then come up with an other life threatening disease to take cancers place.

As another cancer survivor (kidney cancer) I know you have just lost 100 pounds of worry. Enjoy getting on with your life. Don't forget to take the time to smell the flowers. bk

Come on...a dram is only .125 ounces...you can do better than that. I'll have 128 (or perhaps 256) drams of Guinness in your honor tonight. Congratulations on your wonderful news!!!

A wee dram or two scotch,irish and canadian whiskies add up to .750 ounces but who was measuring all that mighty tasty stuff.Anybody have any idea why my head felt funny this morn? :D

Good news is really fun once in a while. Congrats.

Very good news, indeed, take care and don't go near that stuff no more.

Congratulations and here's top your health! :beer:

Great news!! :beer: I'll have a Molson's in your honor.

Well this is wonderful news, which has been sorely lacking lately, A toast to you!
