Fortunately the drugs involved will be much less harsh than in the past.

Good to hear.
Take it one-day at a time, one-week at a time.
Just keep driving-on and go on the trips you've wanted to do, go live.

How goes it with the treatment kkina?

Well, now, thanks for asking!

It's going. I just got through a fairly bad 2-hour session of side effects. Oxycodone is getting me through the really tough intervals.

Good news is the last scan again showed no signs of tumors. The current chemo is to insure against the cancer coming back, and will probably continue through the end of the year.

Glad to hear the good report Kevin!

It saddens me that so many members are die-hard skeptics of the medical profession.

Good to hear a report like that, sorry you have to go down that route but it's good they found it and removed it early enough to clean it up.
