It looks as though "The Force" (Luck) Is with you. I am certainly hoping that this "Good fortune" stays with you all the way through to a cure.

I just want you to know I must have a "sympathy" sickness to "feel your pain" I just got back from finding out I have a case of the shingles. So, this is the plan...... Let's get over this and then we'll have a big ole' cheering party.

I am waiting for every update, Mike. We are all crossing our fingers, toes, eyes and anything else for you.
Thanks for taking the time to send updates, even during these stressful visits. We are with you every minute

Thanks everyone! We were there a few hours and it takes an hour and 20 minutes to get home.

The kidney we already knew was a problem. That kidney confirmation came out of the review board.

Going to bed now. Long drive again tomorrow.

Mike...I had my port put in on a Friday and had my first chemo on a Monday.It is an amazing thing. No sticking your veins with needles. The nurse sprays some stuff that smells like freezone which numbs the area and pops this little needle in that you hardly feel and you are good to go.
Just take it one day at a time. Do what they tell you to do. Rest when you need to. Eat well. stay well hydrated and get plenty of rest.
I am sending you my prayers.
Blessings....Jean

I suspect that Catherine's finger nails are as bitten down as mine are, waiting to hear from you.

You are fortunate to have been able to cut time off the biopsy and treatments. I know that your luck will hold up going forward!!
