Hi everyone. Its hard to believe but a year has past since this nightmere began.
After a needle biopsy turned up negitive I was told it could be a virus, but I new it was cancer.
Funny how you know certain things isnt it?
Dont you also find it funny that doctors go by the diagnosis date, but insurance companies go by treatment end date? Kinda sucks when you have 5 kids and cant get life insurance.
Now I start the process of the 1 year checkup. Oncol today. CAT scans Sat. Rad/Oncol Mon. and Surg on Tues.
I feel great and am looking forward to an uneventful week.
Any prayers or encouragement would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Robert
