Survivor and remission.

I have been wondering when I can start counting myself as a survivor? What date will mark my "1 year survivor, 2 year...etc"?

I have seen myself as a survivor the entire time. Giving up was no option. There was no debate. So I am a survivor right now.

However, remission begins on the first day after my last treatment. So not yet. That will be the day that I will mark as my "remission day".

Any thoughts?
