Hi all, thanks for the b'day wishes but it is actually my husband's birthday. (i obviously didn't fill out the profile correctly). This day last year Jon started his first day of chemo! One year later and many steps in between we are celebrating his b'day AND his 10 month cancer free checkup (got the results yesterday). Off to see Dr. Einhorn next week for a check up and hoping he says...you look great, see you in a year!

One year later and many steps in between we are celebrating his b'day AND his 10 month cancer free checkup (got the results yesterday).
There are two great reasons to celebrate!
Scott right inguinal orchiectomy 6/5/2003 > nonseminoma, stage I > surveillance > L-RPLND 6/24/2005 for recurrence, suspected teratoma but found seminoma, stage II > chylous ascites until 9/2005 > surveillance and "all clear" since
