      It's been a year since my husbands surgery.  Stage IV, 8mm tumor removed from his right arm.  Every day has been a gift.  Its been 4 months since we ended Opdivo treatments and although we are still dealing with side effects and after effects, the scans are clear.  I am so grateful for each day.  I read here daily on the success stories and the struggles.  They help me stay hopeful and grounded.  I dont say much on here in responses, but I do say prayers for you all and shed tears as well.  Everyone here has become family.  Thank you all.

          Happy Anniversary and CONGRATS to you and your husband on the continued success! Side effects and after effects are certainly no fun, but clear scans can put a smile on the face even when it hurts to lift the cheeks! ; )
