    PJ I would echo almost all of your comments, just not as eloquently!  There is one thing about my cancer that isn't on your list.

     

    My cancer was.  Of course, I don't know that for sure.  I can only choose to believe that my cancer was because it might be true, and I'd rather think of my cancer as killed and gone.  It may have left its marks in neuropathy, lymphedema, and all those other annoying side effects, but for now my cancer was.  I hope it turns out that your cancer was, too.
