Breath holding finally over, can I pay my dues and we start the meeting for the zero club!  tongue   I thought I was waiting patiently but about two days before my test it was all I could think about.  I barely spoke with anyone at church, including family, and was distracted until I got my results.  I am hoping that the anxiousness before each test does get easier.  I feel more and more normal everyday.

Thank you all for being here.  It is so good to be able to read and be encouraged by so many.

This is great news Tim - I only just got the title of your post (thick as a brick you think? - yes that's me - I was reading it as "naught"!). Glad to have you chair this meeting of the ZERO club of COURSE!
Kind regards, Lana & CJ

PS My hubby (CJ) is having blood drawn tomorrow for 5th one (PSA) - We had some good news today however (about something else), so are happily distracted now, strangely enough. I think it tends to get a little easier with time - maybe? maybe not... but good on you! Hope to be joining you VERY soon at your meeting.

That's great news Tim . . welcome to another successful "ZERO" club member! May you have a lifetime of zero's. There's nothing quite like the anticipation of the first one, but having had zero's for 2 years now, we know there's still that "moment of breath holding" until the zero result is heard.

Hey Tim,

Here's my congrats along with rest of the Big Fat Zeros. Waiting for PSA results always causes some anxiety for that is normal for something that important to you. Remember that we are part of a unique group of people: Cancer Survivors. Survivors come through in the clutch. We have faced the worst news a person can get, made the hard choices for treatment, faced all the fears of surgery or radiation which were for the most part completely unknown to us at the time. Yet we get together here and encourage each other with a smile on our face.

You are a Survivor and a Big Fat Zero...

Jim

Hey Tim as the self appointed president of the club I am sad to inform you that we have met our quota this month and will not be able to allow you in.
ok ok that was my silly attempt at humor. GREAT news my friend and welcome to the club. I pray that many more will be joining us this month. May God continue to bless you abundantly.
