11 months and 14 days

Im mobile and sitting in the Greenebaum Cancer Center at the Universiry of Maryland. I just completed my Pelvic and Chest PT Scan and now waiting for Dr Burrows to read them and then see me, its Just 14 days shy of being 1 year Cancer free I reflect back, Wow what a year it has been. Ill update after I get home later,

I met with Dr. Burrows my Thoracic Surgeon and Dr Horiba my Chemo Oncologist today. They read all my Scan and Blood results. I am still Cancer Free ! What a great day !
Both doctors are very happy and suprised with the way I have progressed and the way I look, they didnt expect me to bounce back the way I have. I am having difficulty swallowing and they will bring me in, in a few weeks to go in and try to stretch my Esophagus, I also need to schedule an appointment to have my med port removed.

My wieght is holding at 158 lbs and it seems thats all I can achieve, but the Doctors are happy with it.

Dr. Burrows says that the pain I am expieriancing in my right chest and abdomin area is normal due to the level of surgery that I underwent, and he also claims that I will have it for the rest of my life. As he says," I am his patient for life, and will always know that he had his hands in me." But thats okay, im alive.

As my boss Wayne says, " Only the good die young."
