Stages of Cancer ... just found out ... what does this really mean?

@KatyJoy Good questions but I have no answers for you. I'd be speaking with your oncologist if you really want to know. 

I often wanted to know my prognosis or chance of recurrence. I only asked that question much later. I didn't want to have doubts during treatment. The reality is people have grim looking beginnings and never have recurrence, others can have stage 0 cancer and go on to on to have recurrence. The trouble with stats is you don't know on which side your cancer will sit. So I now choose to believe I am 1 of the 90%.
