2015 update...

well it has been almost 10 years since i finished my treatments -- finished chemo on June 28, 2005 and finished radiation on July 25, 2005. so to "celebrate", i had my annual followup visit.

the labs/blood work were fine. CT scan was normal/stable. so we continue with the once-a-year visits BUT with a new twist....no more annual CT scans. moving forward i will have annual bloodwork and dr. visits. we will save the scan for situations where other symptoms or concerns necessitate one. YAY!!!

i think i will be putting together some sort of 10 year "i'm not dead yet" celebration. the last "formal" celebration was at 5 years. maybe a state street bar crawl, food along the way, and end with a night of fun at the piano bar...now....where/how do i fit THAT into my jam packed Summer????...stay tuned for details.
