Dang PJ...that's more than kick in back pockets.
Drew, I know how it feels to be diagnosed with Cancer. The doctor treating me for Colitis also tested me for stomach cancer and it came up positive so he sent me over to the Oncologist. He tested me to the tune of 10's of thousands dollars and could not identify the cancer but still tested positive. After a year of this we found out the medicine the original doctor had put me on interfered with the blood test and caused it to be positive. I guess the moral of the story is check and double check the meds doctors prescribe.But he explained that adrenal cancer is not good and within the not good class I was about average. But RCHOP was used super effectively and I have zero hot spots in my body.
These guys never say cured, but he said not to worry about it any more. If you make it past two years without a lymphoma coming back, apparently odds are very good that issue will not reoccur. But who knows what else will. He really liked the apples and must have been fun for one of his success stories to come back and visit him.
sure was good to get in and out of the cancer ward with a smile. Vidant/ECU in Greenville NC.
