My dear friend was diagnoised in december 05 with stage 2 of ovarian cancer. She has since then undergone a hysterectomy, and has begun the new peritoneal chemotherapy. All of the information we have read seems grim, and we have only heard of 1 person living past the 5th year mark. That brave women lost the second battle. It seems that all cases women are cancer free for 5 years, then are rediagnosed and donot survive the 2nd battle. We are looking to talk with others that have beaten this. My dear friend is precious just as we all are, and I want to grow old with her.|||I know a girl that was diagnosed in 1989, and treated, and has not had a relapse. Not only that but she had the highest score you can get on it and had let it go for a long time before even seeing a doctor. She works at a local bank now and is doing great.|||I am so sorry to hear about your friend, but we must always remember that all things are possible through Christ and by his stripes we are healed. Just because the doctors say no God still says yes and through him she is already healed. Have faith and keep trusting and believeing that all things are possible and everything will work out for her good. I wish you all nothing but the best and will have you and your friend in my prayers.|||My grandmother has.|||Yes.

A woman I work with had ovarian cancer many years ago–at least 10–and she%26#039;s doing fine.

I wouldn%26#039;t have even known this, except it came up in conversation recently. I was surprised and interested, because I was aware of the grim statistics.

She had a total hysterectomy and aggressive chemotherapy. I don%26#039;t know if she had intraperitoneal chemo, but I doubt it.

I%26#039;ll ask for more details when I see her Monday. But the answer to your question is a definite yes.
