Hi Bobby, Eric (AzTarHeel) here (accidently posting under my wife's alias)... Your attitude is awesome... Even though I'm a Tar Heel, who went to school in Chapel Hill, I wish you nothing but the best over the coming weeks...

I'm halfway through my second bout of radiation (18th treatment today), and I can report this time is much smoother than the first time... Of course, I'm only getting rad to the neck and nowhere in the mouth or esophogus... The chemo is no walk in the park, but it's bearable aside from a couple days of feeling queasy after the infusion... You can do it!!
