      2 years ago I go the call from my oncologist office…still vividly remember as I sat at rhe kitchen table for hours, at least it seemed like hours, after she said "positive". I had a positive lymph node… albeit microscopic, it was still positive….well…life goes on I thought, and fortunately for me it has….today I had my 2 year CT scan, blood work and lymph node ultrasound, and remain NED from my stage 3a diagnosis… It was a very arduous decision to watch and wait , but fortunately the right one for me so far…God bless us all…
