Congratulations Granny...

My MDS DX in January 2008 was such that only 3 months was all I had left. Not enough life even to celibrate my granddaughter's first birthday. All I wanted was to see that happy time with my family.

Well, so much for that medical estimate! Here I am today with three grandbabies to celebrate Christmas with and many more birthdays too. I'm living a positive lifestyle and what will be will be. No more speculation for me.
