Quote:Now that I am not using a phone to post, I can fill everyone in and say thanks. I appreciate the well wishes from everyone.

 

Like I said before, I have also joined the proverbial war against cancer. We're doing battle, and I have lost a kidney so far to it. The surgery went remarkably well. The recovery has been remarkably horrific. Those who know me also know that this is hardly the only ailment that I face. I have a rare form of arthritis as well, and long story short, went active in both feet and both knees at the same time. That has never happenedSo, and for all intents and purposes has rendered me completely crippled until it subsides. Once it does though, I get to go home.

 

Lots of follow up stuff though. I still have a bone lesion to have looked at, and the reports from the kidney aren't back yet either. So, I could be almost done with this mess, or just getting started. I just don't know.

 

So, we just get to see what happens. I guess I can't complain too much. The fact that I am alive right now means that I have beaten the odds-makers of 5 years ago. If it's working, I had better stick with it.

 

Thanks again everyone and God Bless....
