    I thought I saw a thread on a 15 year survivor and still going strong.

    Yes, Meow, Stephanie here went even longer. I guess the median ages are what counts, and to understand that these are rising is of comfort to all of us pre Stage IV. My pal Rob is now nearly three years metastatic and has just been given good scan and blood results. He tells me that his onc still has a couple of drugs up his sleeve should he regress. Meanwhile, he is powering on with international travel, attending to grandkids, and getting on his motorbike any fine weekend. We live in an amazing medical era.
