Ed,

Thank you for posting that - beautifully put! The only thing I find lacking on the OCF forum is a "LIKE" button!

I'm also in the long term survivor category (7 years 8 months) and experiencing some of the late effects of radiation (dental issues and a few others). But these are minor in comparison to what some are experiencing and I'm certainly thrilled to be still here and able to help others. Life is still good!

Thank you all!
