Default I Rang The Bell Today.

I rang the bell today. I finished my 45th and final radiation treatment for Prostate Cancer. 5 days a week for 9 weeks and two days, excluding the two Holidays.
Tomorrow I leave for my winter home in Englewood Florida.

God Bless You! I don't know how she does it, but my wife works with children who have cancer, so it hit home for me to hear your good news!

Suffered minor damage. Probably a half days worth of worth. The salt water did destroy my landscaping plants.

As someone that has experienced cancer from the surgical side of things (3 surgeries, 2006, 2015 and 2017), best of wishes for good cancer free health.

I still see my oncologist regularly and hope you will do the same.

Congratulations! As someone who did chemo for a full 3 years with bloodwork done once a week for half of it, it's a great feeling to finally be over the hurdle and potentially out of the woods. I just passed the 5 year mark with no return so my oncologist considers it to be a full remission and to just get checked once a year now.
