Jan,

I would love to know what you did to keep the cancer from re-occurring. My Stage IV cancer came back after only 5 months and I am finished chemo again, but wondering what can I do to prevent re-occurrence? Any suggestions?

Thank you for showing encouragement. I believe in half full but when you get bombarded by discouragement it eventually make you question what you believing for.
