Lotech,

Glad to hear you are up and about. I trust the docs have a plan for the spot on the liver.
Sorry about your uncle; 91 years is a good run, but what a shock whenever someone passes is so suddenly.

Take care of yourself, enjoy the new normal, and let us know what magic potions they come up with to finish the job.

Best
Jack

Haven't written in awhile, actually painting inside of my house. One Uncle died 2 weeks ago from bladder cancer, he was 91 no one knew until he went into Doctors doubled over in pain. He was stage 4 already in kidneys. Started on Monday by the weekend he passed. important to be proactive on this disease its a fast killer!

My treatments are
going well 7mm spot on liver left to get rid of and ureter surgery and ill be right as rain! Never thought id get used to my Indiana pouche after the RC, but pretty much routine now.
