   Aloha Ms Bea. Yes, cancer can seem like such a huge struggle. The fear, the wondering, the statistics. Your faith, dear one, will indeed, get you through. Regarding recurrence of ovarian cancer, I am an extreme researcher and have found nothing, except the CA 125 test to determine recurrence. I also believe that listening to your soul and body will tell you what is going on. My symptoms for early stage cancer were picked up by me, not by my doctors. So listen carefully. You might ask for MRI's. Those are now being used for detection of breast cancer, so they would probably work for ovarian cancer. I suppose you might have to be assertive with your physicians on that.
   
   Thanks for your posts. Love and Light, LesLee

   I haven't written anything in so long. I haven't been feeling much like writing. Just giving hugs once in awhile. I am starting to feel like a human being again. My energy level is back to normal and I feel like going out of the house now. I have so much to be thankful for. God, Family, Friends. I have many, many good friends. I want to wish all of you a Merry Christmas. I know a good many of you are here because you need encouragement. I want to take this opportunity to say that what ever you may be going through, God is still in control. He will get you through it. Whatever the outcome, He will be there with you. God is good and He loves us ALL.
   Recently I met a woman who has breast cancer that has spread to her liver, bones, and brain. She is convinced that she is going to be healed. I pray she is right. But I am more practical in my situation. If I become terminal, I pray that God will be there to get me through it. We all die of something. Not all of us are healed. Right?
   It is snowing like crazy tonight and it is so beautiful. Huge snowflakes. I am looking outside at all the pine trees and it reminds me of being inside a snowglobe. Wonderful! I think we will have a white Christmas this year.
   Just musing about this past year. It has been a good year all in all. Nothing too out of the ordinary. 2006 was a horrible year that I wouldn't want to live over. I think 2008 will be a good year. I just want to stay healthy.
   I had another 3 month check up and my CA 125 was 7.5 which is really good. But on the other hand it never got above 13 even when I had cancer. The doctor explained to me that CA 125 hormone is not secreted by all ovarian cancers. I think mine is in that catagory. I don't know what else they look for except that the pelvic exam is still very important even though I don't have a uteris, ovaries or cervix.
   I am coming up on my two year anniversary in February. Do you know of any web sites that are dedicated to survivors of Ovarian cancer. I know that there are a lot of breast cancer sites but I can't seem to find any for ovarian cancer survivors.
