Dear all, >From the rainy Netherlands I wish you very pleasant and peaceful >Christmas'days and of course a Nrw Year with only positive results concerning >our common ennemy CML. Since I was diagnosed in early 2003, just before being >transferred to Italy, this group has been of great support (and it still is). >Being abroad the infornation on this site helped a lot and I even met a Dutch >fellow patient on this group, who appeared to have had the same (colon) cancer >previous to the CML and who became the chief editor of the Dutch CML Patients >magazine, of which I became a member of the editorial board after having >coming back to the Netherlands. I am still on Gleevec (600 mg) and finally the two last pcr/abl checks had the result desired for such a long time: leucemia not detectable. I keep my fingers crossed for the next exams in January.... The messages on this site are wonderful, they really give hope and support; thank you, all of you! Actually I am living partly in the Netherlands and partly in the south of France, from where I regularly go to Italy. If you want to see me, I invite you to follow the following link (short movie in Dutch with English subtitles) http://www.novartisoncology.nl/voorpatienten/cmlvideo_en.shtml
I never thought that I would have a part in a movie, but because I think it is very important to give hope especcialy to new patients, just like this group does, I decided to figure in this movie, hoping that it will help our new "colleagues". All the best to everyone, keep thinking positive!
