 GOOD NEWS FOR ME Hi All, Well I went to the oncologist this afternoon and I am cancer free!!!!   The doctor said I am a very very lucky woman. He said it was fantastic that the cancer cells found after taking my gall bladder out by laparoscopy had not travelled. He also said usually when they find gall bladder cancer it is too late to help the patient. Whew  Anyway, I don't need any surgery or chemotherapy and all he wants me to do is have blood tests every 3 months for 2 years that will show any cancer markers early enough to be treated. That was a happy happy doctor visit for me. Again THANK YOU ALL for your prayers and good wishes.. You will all stay in my prayers and in my heart. Love, Helen
