Let me hug you all, my friends !

Today I was examined for the first time after my radiation treatment was completed on November 17th. I received a CT scan plus was inspected visually and unfortunately with a finger down my still sore throat as well.

There were no traces of cancer to be found says Dr. Garden at MD Anderson.

I cannot express the relief I felt ! Only after he said it did I realize how anxious I was to hear it.

Happy New Year and all the best to all of you !
My year could not have started any better !
