Hello All,
I wanted to let you know how I'm doing. I had a chest x-ray before starting my 6th round of chemo today. The chest x-ray looked real good. No glaring spots of concern. I had the last three weeks off of chemo to let my body recover. It did! All blood numbers were fine. Scheduled a mri and a cat scan for December 29th. Scan results will determine my treatment for 2005.
The on'gist is leaning towards treatment with chemo (Taxol & Carboplatin) every other week instead of three on and one off. All in all a good day for me. After reading about the ones who lose the battle it's diffucult to enjoy
my good news. Thanks for all the support, prayers and love.
Love Ya All, Danny Boy
Dear Dan
You are so positive and giving. I often wonder how you are doing and am so happy that you responding well to chemo.
Congratulate yourself, with lots of love and admiration from Helen

Great hearing from you and thanks for sharing your progress. Keep those positive vibs going and glad to hear things are going well. Miracles do happen! The mind is a wonderful thing.
Danny,
This latest report is great news! I hope this trend continues -- and that you and your family have a wonderful holiday season.

Thanks for all the responses and good will. It really humbles me that so many members are pulling for me. (A Hayseed from Wisconsin) I have received more from all of you then I could ever repay. I will try my best though.
Love Ya All, Danny Boy
Danny Boy,
Jack is right! You definitely need to enjoy this good news. Yes, it is sad that others aren't as fortunate. And for awhile, I had ambivalent feelings when reading good news. I tried to be happy for others, but my sadness over Heather got in the way. But now, I think I can honestly say that although I will always mourn Heather, her loss no longer impedes my being able to feel happy when I read good news like yours. The sadness will always be there, but it is in its own place now and doesn't interfere with my happiness for others.
So........don't let sadness interfere with your happiness for yourself. You deserve this reprieve, Danny! Enjoy it! I wish you continued success in your treatments.
Love, rainbows & hugs,
Rosie
Danny!
So wonderful!
Smile more, thank God for every bright minute and love your family like crazy! I could go no further than reading the bad news yesterday, and suffered a horrible day because of it. I am grateful to read your news, and like everyone else, encourage you to share happiness often!
Love
Nicki
Fantastic news Danny!!
Enjoy the holidays with your family
Chuck

Keep up the good news we all could use it. You deserve to have some good news, and I hope it just keeps coming. You and your family are always in my prayers.
Danny Boy,

Your friend,
Danny G.
An early Christmas present Daniel, thank you. Can't wait to see what you give all of us next year.
Love,
Minnie
Danny,
Excellent! As we all fight this disease on different fronts and stages, it made my day to read that your scan was good and the positive battle continues. Your strength and attitude throughout your ordeal have made a solid cornerstone on which I can build. We don't like to hear when you are down, even though we must share the experience. But we absolutely need to hear the good results. Keep fighting!
David
Danny Boy,
I guess even a little hayseed can be planted and nurtured to grow! I am really proud to have you as a friend and I look forward to hearing more good news as often as you can dish it out. May the miracles fall in your path.
Ed
