Hi all yesterday l was officialy discharged from peter mac boxhill radioligy. Never to return hopefuly. It will be 5 years in june cannot believe it. My radioligist shook my hand and said she loves it when she gets to walk you out and thats what she did. I still have my other drs to see l felt very strange and a little emotional of all the memories l had at this hospital.upwards and onwards. Adean

    @adean wonderful news. I have just recently finished at Peter Mac Box Hill. My oncologist and breast surgeon thought going private would be best . I decided to go to Box Hill and have never regretted it. I loved the staff, generally I rarely had to wait long.  I can see why you might miss Box Hill nice place.

    woo hoo my 5 year appointment will be this year in Sept.. I totally agree with you about the sense of emotions.... part of me is excited that I am approaching my 5 year appointment and part of me is scared.... 
    You have done well and you should be proud that you have achieved this Cancer changes us but we have a future ahead of us to plan and enjoy :D
