This post is full of good news!!!! So glad you both got away and were able to enjoy the warm, friendly islands in Portugal!! I know it is an adjustment to go from treatment to waiting .... from survival mode to survivor. You have the inner strength to handle this transition!! Fingers crossed that each day moving forward is a good one and the results stay stable and good!! Thanks for the update.

You are a warrior and an inspiration!! I’m so glad that you got some positive news. Wishing you continued health and happiness! xo

Loved catching up with you in SC and this past weekend about how far you've come and loved reading this. Colleen you are amazing. And im excited for you to get back to a little more normalcy!! Survivor indeed. ❤

Oh my God, what wonderful news. I can totally imagine the mix of emotions, and an optimism that feels hesitant, but you are by far one of the strongest women I know, and I truly believe life has big plans for you. Your children are gorgeous, your husband seems amazing, and your resilience and fight during this trying time is something that so many of us are in awe of. Wishing and praying for all the best for you, Coll!!

Great news! Thanks for sharing your journey. You and your whole family are so courageous. Congratulations on THRIVING!!!

Survivor you are. Love you and your amazing crew so much! 💗

Colleen and Chris: I am so happy to read this news. We continue to think of you and pray for your health, Colleen. You are a survivor! Love you, The Fortis.

It is with hearts that were already full and grateful that we received your wonderful and hopeful news! We were in Hopkinton on Sunday when we learned that our first greatgrandson, Owen, was born. We thought "may this be a positive omen for Coleen too". And may it well be. We think it is. Stay well and happy, dear girl. Keep celebrating! The Tumbers

Wonderful news Colleen- the shift from surviving to survivor is amazing and momentous! I'm happy to hear you celebrated properly and are living life on your terms once again. Enjoy every minute ! Love Marci and Joe

Colleen you are a beautiful, strong determined woman who continues to inspire all of us! God Bless you and your beautiful family who have worked so hard to earn that Survivor shirt! Love, Mom & dad
