SO EXCITED

Hello all, well I have booked a flight and a room and registered so I guess it is on… I will get to meet all of you who I have only known by the internet so I will be there in the flesh to prove I am not just an internet mirage or something. I want to hug everyone there who has made this site what it is. I will see you all in Salt Lake, I arrive the 31st so I should be there for all the fun. see you then, Pat

Thanks guys …. i am so excited to meet you all. I feel like a lone warrior sometimes down here in the south. It will be fun to finally get to hang out and hear your stories.

See you soon!

Hopefully next year Lainy. But, it seems that I say that every year! Honestly am not dodging getting over there but you all know how things are here for me.

A ton of videos on the youtube channel as well. I like this one from last years conference a lot. It has loads of you all in it too!

Hugs to all,

I too am very excited to be attending the conference. I attended with my best friend/coworker last year and I have to say the event changed my life. The ability to meet and talk with so many other people who were going through the same thing was mind blowing.. In addition it was at that conference that I learned how survivorship works…. as you know I thought I could not call myself a survivor because I hadn’t beaten this beast yet…. almost as I went 4 years without a recurrence but as I talked with people I learned that I had been beating this beast year after year.. Nothing hold more true this year.

So I am super excited to be bringing my husband, meet all of my Facebook and discussion board friends, and learn so many new things to bring back to my area. i feel my part of the country is a bit under represented so I feel a bit of responsibility to bring the info back and help those in this area have knowledge and hope about this disease.

I also want to thank everyone for continued support I have been absent from the discussion board due to a difficult few months. I had started a clinical trial that just wasn’t for me. Hopefully it killed away the metastatic cells that were floating around but I lost quite a bit of vision and had horrific joint pain. Unfortunately this made me less available and very focused on reversing. I have since left the trial and am starting to feel better. I am grateful that the effects are reversing and my eyesight is almost back to normal. What a strange ride…. another post for sure.

See you guys soon!
