Mike, that so stinks on so many levels. As someone else wrote you may feel differently in a few days or weeks about doing the phase 1 trial. Meanwhile, know I'm thinking only the most positive thoughts for you!

Mike... It's not hard to make me cry, so of course your letter did so. But as I read your words, it is so Mike-like to confront any situation head-on and not shy away from any challenge, no matter how tough or devastating it seems.

I wrote to you in an email a few months ago that you were my "BC hero" because the advice you gave on the forum caused a man who had given up and was not going to even go to the doctor again, call and make that appointment. You still are my BC hero for how you inspire us all to never give up or give in.

Check in from time to time along your travels... find someplace warm cause I know it's COLD in Colorado right now!
Best wishes... Catherine
