I knew a girl who was diagnosed with the same cancer, and she didn't make it - simply because she didn't want to fight. Look at Bret Michaels - I'm not surprised he's still alive. My best to both you and your husband - hopefully we'll meet soon! It’s amazing how much attitude can do.

Your story brought tears to my eyes - I think mostly because I've been there and done that (albeit at a much younger age). But, I think you're right to be forthcoming about it. I find that stories of survival are inspirational and the fighting spirit is magnificent. That gal did herself a disservice by not talking with you ... thankfully YOU are a strong incredible woman.

I love your outlook on cancer and life. My husband was diaganosed with stage 4 colon cancer in 2007. We said that we will never let it rule us. He's had 2 surgeries, 3 years of chemo and 1000 different drugs. We have also gotten married, went to Disney and 4 months ago had our first child. One day he will make it to remission, but until then we will be as normal as we can. Amanda, I was at the summit, we didn’t talk, but I can say that you had one of the biggest smiles in the room.
