I know many have suffered worse than me from this disease so I shouln't really complain.
Cancer is cancer tcleft.. Yes maybe some of us have suffered a little more physically than you have, but Mentally, the toll we pay is equal no matter whether your diagnosed with 1a seminoma or 3c non seminoma.. or whether your a survivor or cosurvivor..We have all paid a pretty hefty price... Yu have every right in the world to complain..and every time you do we will be here to listen and hopefully help you as much as possible.. Congrats on the all clear and hopefully this will be the first in a long line of good news/results you will post in the coming years!!!!

Everyone,thank you. Tomorrow, I'll have my PET scan. I think they just want to make sure I'm really done and no live TC cells are left. As far as complaints go, it's obvious that all of you are there to hear them and to help and comfort. I'll never be able to thank all of you enough. You are all in my heart. A good friend of mine is considering getting the Korean word for courage tattooed in honor of me (Hey Don, I'm a bit of an illustrated man, as well.) I'm also into quotations and told my friend this quote is definately how I feel. I came accross this one during this whole mess. "Courage is the art of being the only one who knows you're scared to death." So when it comes to all of you, I guess I'm not the only one who knows. I guess I'm not used to complaining about being scared and sharing that feeling, so I hold back. But all of you aren't going to let me get away with that are you?
Thanks again Gang,
Mark
