David,

I am a fighter. In my life I have taken very many journeys, some planned by me, some not. The journey with this monster cancer was not my plan, but I had to come up with a plan to travel it. I planned to try to stay as normal as possible, knowing that I will never be the same person I was before I was told "You have cancer". The rest of my plan involves my faith, family, friends, work and good medical care. I can only hope this plan works for me. If not, I will construct another until I succeed.
Today, I just finshied my 26th rad treatment. I am still working and plan to until the end of next week. If I physically am able. After that I will be off of work for three to five weeks. All part of my plan. I know cancer may have a very different plan for me, but I am in charge of my life.
Thanks for all the support on this site. It gives me strength to go on when I am thinking about giving up. Although, sometimes I think it is a bit too REAL, it was/is sure nice knowing what may lay in wait in this horrible journey that we all must take.
