I was told all the same statistics. I sure had some pretty low moments last year, but I've always believed I could beat the odds in anything. If the cancer comes back then I will fight it again! Call it a boldness, assertiveness, aggresiveness, I don't know what! It's part of who I am. It makes my wife nuts sometimes, but oh well! It served me well last year & still does today. Mind over matter. I believe I will live to be an old man & see many grandchildren! HaHa!
