Excellent! As we all fight this disease on different fronts and stages, it made my day to read that your scan was good and the positive battle continues. Your strength and attitude throughout your ordeal have made a solid cornerstone on which I can build. We don't like to hear when you are down, even though we must share the experience. But we absolutely need to hear the good results. Keep fighting!
