I am halfway through chemo and it would be great to hear some stories about women who did not have a recurrence. I was high grade serous stage 2. Although I know that recurrence is a definite possibility I also need to know that it could be gone for good. Thanks

Unfortunately I'm not one of that team myself, but I can tell you that prior to Covid I belonged to a local support group of about 12 or so survivors. Of those gals three were survivors of over 25 years; one actually had her 30th anniversary just before she shut down our meetings because of Covid. Beyond them, one member celebrated her fifth year and is now seven years without recurrence and two, both stage 3C like me and diagnosed the same year I was, are still without recurrence five years later. So that represents about half our group. Statistically unique perhaps but it does give hope, even to those diagnosed in advanced stages, that cure is a distinct possibility given advances in treatment the past few years.
Good luck....and best wishes.
