Dear Girl,
I understand your concern. I too am very concerned that the cancer will come back. My doctors tell me this type of cancer has a high risk of returning. Every day I allow time to be scared, angry, cry, and then walk away from the fear. It's not easy and at times it's a huge struggle, but it works for me. I am two years out and cancer free. I still have debilitating side effects from the chemo but I have learned to live with it. What is important now is to live! Surround yourself with family, friends and anything that makes you feel good. You are only two months out and as time goes on it will get easier
Hang in there. You're in remission. Go out and live.0January 2014 -

Hey Girl... Welcome to What Next! I was 62 when diagnosed with Stage IV Ovarian Cancer, and given "six months". Now... I'm 70 and Cancer Free. I did approximately two years of chemo. The doctor a Gynecologic Oncologist Surgeon Removed a 39 lb. tumor of my right ovary - my left ovary and all the cancer he could see..(along with a ton of liquid) The PET CT Scan just prior to my starting chemo revealed... HE HAD REMOVED IT ALL. We did the chemo to kill off all the little cells floating trying to find a home. I guess he/we did that. Take time, read, make a comment, etc. If you have a specific question.. click on "QUESTIONS" above, and more people will see it and be able to answer you. They seem to have found yours early... I asked God to take my hand and lead me to where He wanted me to be... and here I am. (((Hugs of Welcome)))0November 2013
