Guest guest Posted February 5, 2011 Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Let me be one of many who will be offering you a big welcome to our group. I will certainly add you to our 10-year survivors list and a new BMT list. Yours was the first post I saw upon opening my mail and I am happy that you are in a good place. Your positive attitude will take you to the place where we would all like to be - in remission. We will follow your Caringbridge site closely to see how you are progressing. We have many long time survivors here. I was diagnosed 7/96 and in my 6th trial. I hope everyone else who has come thus far will fall in with me and tell you a little of their story and where they are in their own journey. It is certainly unfortunate that we have members who are non-responders, but perseverance is the key word - don't give up and don't give in to naysayers. I was not given any more time than you and the rest of the old timers, but medicine is a science that is constantly changing and evolving. Hope is like a vigil, and here we never turn the lights out, there is always someone in some part of the world reading the posts, ready to offer you their love and compassion. Never underestimate the human spirit. Thank you for sharing your story of victory over CML. Carpe Diem, Lottie Duthu P. S. I could not enter your site without your email address.
