Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 76 | I just wanted to thank everyone on this forum both those who responded to any questions I asked and to all that have shared their experinces. This site help me get though all the treatments for Marvin. It helped us to know what to look for ahead of time, things to ask the doctors and how to cope with the many different issues that come up during and after treatments. Marvin just had his port and peg removed today and gets to return to full time work. We are so thank full for that. He saw his ro today and they say things look good. So from both Marvin and me we thank all of you.
