Just thought I'd check in with you good folks and post a happy post   It's been almost 3 years since my diagnosis and I'm still "passing" my tests.  I feel fine, no side effects from Gleevec (I'm on 400 mg/day).  What I thought was "chemo brain" was exhaustion, and once I changed anti-depressents I started sleeping well again!  Life is so precious;  two friends much younger than I am have passed away this year from heart attacks but here I am for some reason and enjoying pretty much every moment.

Best to all,

Tracy

Hi Tracy, that is great news that you are doing so well!  What a beautiful dog in your avatar picture Border Collies are such great dogs aren't they! My friend had a lovely Border Collie cross Kelpie, and he was just the most gorgeous natured dog I've ever met Pin xxx.
