Cancer Support

I doubt any doctor will pronounce you "cured" of advanced stage cancer so quickly.

The stage is important from the point of view that you can determine how localized it is. Stages I, II, and III are all localized, so in theory you can be "cured". I had stage III. Unfoturtunately it traveled around the body and became stage IV. Maybe an average patient is cured of stage III. I wasn't. Two years later I was rediagnosed with metastatic cancer and then the fun began.

You're right in how we don't know what it will do. I've gone past my "experation point". That's not to say I won't be dead within a year. Who knows?
