Sounds like I missed a good program. Did he mention what his lastest prognosis is? Im interested in if he is one of the very few lucky ones who can beat that type of cancer, sure hope so.
I worked with a girl who wasnt so lucky. She was mid 30s and diagnosed around the same time as I was. Poor thing was Stage 4, she died shortly after she went thru treatments unsuccessfully. Very sad for somebody who was so full of life.
