Congratulations on the good news Sara Anne. I like the topic name and I hope to be posting under it in the future. Best wishes also for a speedy recovery for your back.
Hooray Sara Anne! We have MISSED you! Glad your back is feeling a bit better too. Congrats on your four year mark! Yes, it is all good!
I'm getting things in order to head back to Nashville on Sunday for my appointment on Monday (my birthday, no less). I definitely understand those jitters you're talking about. I hit the two year mark in February and am hoping to hear good news as well.
Glad your doc is staying close as well!
Best wishes... Catherine

Had my 6 month checkup today and got yet another ALL CLEAR! I try not to, but just get very nervous as the date approaches. It has now been four years, with no recurrance.
It wasn't fun...about 10 days ago my back went out. It is quite a bit better than last week, but "assuming the position" was a bit much.
More good news. I had noticed that my uro's house was for sale (he lives nearby) and my paranoia had me deciding that he was leaving the area. NOT. Just moved to a better school district!!!
As I said, it is all good.
