).

Here's to Brian's Brain
May it be as clear and empty as mine!
Stage III Non-Seminoma- 7/11/06
Right I/O 7/12/06
Completed 4x BEP 11/06
Bi-Lateral RPLND (Dr. Shenifeld)- 11/27/06
Surveillance since then
When you think about it, what other choice is there but to hope? We have two options, medically and emotionally: give up, or Fight Like Hell.
