Remission
Tom Suchyta
123
It’s a year later. How do you feel now? My husband had a stem cell transplant in 2014, and his remission is still holding. I hope your is too. What’s not so great is that while the cancer is silent, it’s devastation (and that of the various treatments) lingers. Hubby is far shorter, thinner, and less himself overall than he used to be. The shell carries on, but I can’t call this a victory.
