I feel a little conflicted on posting this but since I have received some very nice congrats pm's I guess I will go ahead.

I won't say that I'm "celebrating" my cancer dx anniversary because that just bothers me to put "celebrate and "cancer" in the same sentence.  However, I am so thankful to be here.  I remember when I was first dxed and was so afraid of what the coming months/years had in store for me.  I can't believe it has been five years.  Girls, I'm just so glad to be here to pay it forward.

Hugs to you all!

I agree I won't put celebrate with cancer, but woo hoo I will put it with life.  Congratulations on the last 5 years of life and on moving forward into bigger and better things!  No one celebrates cancer, but I will certainly stand up and cheer for kicking its butt.
