  • Sorry to hear you've been having a rough time. I hope you'll feel better in the time ahead and that the new meds will help.

    • Hey Mark:

      I haven't been on the forums too much lately, but have tried to check in on your posts. I have been sending lots of thoughts and prayers your way, and I hope you beat this soon, once and for all.

      Tho' much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will; to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

          • Hey Man,
            I'm glad to hear that you are progressing. I always look forward to reading posts from you. It gives me the confidence to keep the fight on all fronts going. Your strength quite enviable, and it is in those times I wish the attitude you exude were clonable. Looking forward to good tidings,

                  • All done. Nauseas, but not as bad as it was. Otherwise, I'm wiped out. I see Motzer 4/23. Wish I could move it up, but he's not around.

                      • I was just thinking about your upcoming visit to Sloan. It's good to hear that the chemo is done. I hope your visit with Motzer goes well. In the meantime, get some well-deserved rest in the company of your wife and kids. Looking forward to hearing great news from your end on 04/23,

                        • We should be able to start some party planning soon. Just to prep myself I got a little green this weekend with my friend Johnnie Walker. Sometimes I wish I had some of Scott's moderation in all things mentality, or any mentality for that fact.

                            So I take it you enjoyed sampling JW Green, eh? I had some myself with my sister today after Easter dinner. I can ensure there will be some available when the partying gets underway.
