After 5 long months, I am officially done with treatment and in the new stage called Maintenance.
I guess doctors never say you are cancer free but I am as free as it gets right now. An overwhelming feeling takes over me as I sit here and share this wonderful news with you, who have been there in good and bad times.
Weather was a hospital visit to cheer me up, an email to show that you cared or a great fun-laughter filled dinner that made me forget what I was going through. I will always be grateful for all that you have done and the friendship that you gave me. As I said a while back: I feel very lucky! and wish nothing but the best of health for all of us. Please count your blessings everyday and don't take anything for granted as you NEVER know when things (and I certainly don't mean material) will be taken away from you. Cherish every moment and make every day count; even the hard ones.
Now is celebration time. Lots of sushi, manicures, spa treatments, and goodbyes as we prepare to make the long awaited move to beautiful Switzerland.
Many , many kisses and a warm hug and once again: many, many thanks.
lots of love
Francesca

What a beautiful message. Looking forward to meeting you in CH!
Hi Francesca,
It's been on my mind to comment on your blog for a while now. I've finally gotten back in town and got some quiet time to catch up.
I'm so thrilled about the terrific news. Your story has been inspirational to say the least. I did have a drink in Beijing in your honor when I heard the good news:)
I wish you nothing but the best for you as you settle into your new life in Zurich. I will admit that I wish you were staying. I'm going to miss working with Carsten. He has been very good to me - best boss ever! But I'll find a way to make it to Zurich and hang out with you guys:)
Cheers!
Suzanne
It is a good day for you.
Thank you for sharing your strength, and the precious gift of your experience.
Good luck in the move!
Peace,

I believe that mimosa can cure many different kinds of Cancer and can saved millions of lives.A Malaysia man with Cancer consume mimosa and experience the effective of this miracle plant.He is on his way to recovery now.
