The new OVdialogue experience is only days away! Here’s what the updated platform will offer you as a valued member of our peer-to-peer community:
• A personalized experience, just for you: your member homepage displays the content you engage with most, including a resource library where you can engage in discussions directly related to the content.
• Have conversations in real time: You can respond to notifications and personal messages from people in your community directly from your email inbox; plus it’s easier than ever to return to the platform.
• Stay up to date on the latest events: upcoming activities will be listed in an events calendar right here in the platform
During this time of transition, private messaging within the platform will be unavailable beginning January 22, and posting will be unavailable beginning January 27.
We look forward to seeing you in the refreshed platform!

2 yrs after chemo
I had my 2 yr after chemo/ surgery appt July 22nd. I have been seeing my gyne/oncologist every 3 months due to the likelihood of recurrence. I am happy to report I can now go to 6 months between appointments. He has advised not to celebrate yet but all is going very well. They are extremely happy with my outcomes so far. Yay!!!

@NovaScotiagirl
That is such wonderful news and must feel a bit relieving in some ways. Having longer in between appts will feel very good and freeing.1 -
@Strongwoman, thank you for your message. I am tentatively optimistic.0

Way to go @NovaScotiagirl. Just stay positive, continue to keep your appointments and watch for signs of recurrence. But don't let it overwhelm your life. Get out and enjoy every single minute....but I know you're doing that already.
And thanks for sharing your news to the community. Success stories, even tentative ones, help bring so much hope to so many.
