This group is such an inspiration. It makes me believe that there is a light at

the end of the tunnel. Just 3 months in , I still can't quite get my head around

all this. I know it will get better. I have been trying to dwell on the

positives in my life. Thanks for all of your help . Eva B

Donna:

That is very poignant, " when you are not thinking about

CML for 24/7 it means you are moving on " .

Do I have your permission to use that?

Donna,

The first year is abit of a roller-coster and then you get into the

rhythm of the rounds of appointments - side effects - management.

It is a little like grieving for yourself I suppose when diagnosed

and life goes on and you get on with living yours to the full.

I am glad you are not thinking about CML 24/7 - it means that you are

moving on.

Ditto from me, Donna, I also thank everyone for their sharing of

knowledge, support and chat - companionship is a good word.

I am near my cancer-versary soon too!! (August for me), so I also

perhaps will be reflecting.

Have a good day Donna,

Thinking of you - I will sing " Happy Cancer-versary " in your honour

to the tune of Happy Birthday while I have dinner tonight honour.
