That’s great, Kelli! As my mom is waiting on some more tests for an anomalous lump, it’s heartening to hear that it _can_ be beaten, should worse come to worse… * * * A cubicle is just a padded cell without a door. ---

Kellibelli, we don’t know each other yet but I had to reply to your post and tell you how happy I am for your mom, you and your family. I know how wonderful it is to receive such good news, my mom has Hodgkins Disease and has been in remission for 10 years. Ducky * * * Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult ---

## That’s really good to hear Kelli. I’m glad that your mom is getting better. If I was still Catholic, I would pray for you and yours. Since I’m not though, I will send my love and think really good thoughts, okay? Shadowfox “The dead have risen, and they’re voting Republican!” - Bart Simpson ---

You’ve been living under this for a long time, and then things take a turn, and you just feel “WHEW!” “YAY!” etc. (Great, isn’t it?) And when the cancer comes back, if it does, you may be better prepared for it. I hope so… Maybe God really is looking out for his children… 🙂 Anyway, happy days, kellibelli. foolsguinea ---

I know how you feel and I’m very happy for you! I have lost almost my entire family to cancer, and my mom had a cancer operation a few years ago and was pronounced well. So far, so good. We were estranged for years, and I can’t really say we’re closer, but we are in regular contact now. It’s like dodging a bullet, isn’t it? Anyway, congrats and good luck for you both in the future! ---
