DAVID WROTE:
"What would you have done?"
For one, I'd let my wife have as many stray pups as she wants.
Seriously, you were fortunate to have such a vocal and forceful advocate.
You could have stopped at any point in your road to a CCC, and your story most likely would have had a different ending. Some would call it good karma.
We shouldn't fault someone for opting to live life on his own terms and finding a viable treatment that could help him meet these terms. I don't think he made that decision lightly.
His ultimate message was for early detection and be your own advocate.
I believe you do what you think is right at the time, take ownership of the decision. I think he's doing that.
