Results of the tests came back
« on: January 14, 2014, 05:18:29 PM »
The results of the test came back today. I have cancer called Seminoma. This is very treatable. Tomorrow I will have a scan done to see if the cancer has been spread. This scan will also tell the doctors what treatment I will get. I probably will get radiation only treatment or both radiation & chemo. I'm ok with this because I will beat this.

Cancer sucks, little update on my wife - her cancer has shrunk big time, they stopped doing Chemo back in early december, something about cutting the treatments short by 2 months. They are going to do surgery to repair the breast soon, probably do some follow ups. She's feeling great, I have been taking her fishing and although she won't touch a live worm, has no problem trying to catch shrimp or minnows.

I guess from what I know, the cancer did "travel" some what, but after the first few chemo sessions her body responded greatly, not sure if she's out of danger yet or cancer free - but she's working on kicking its ass.

As for now, I tried to come back to aces in January, I just can't seem to get around to it, going to spend more time teaching her to catch fish while I catch jack CRAP. Btw I seriously hate Flounder (her score is 4 to me zero)

Exercise, eat healthy, rest, alcohol in moderation.


They had an Oncology prof on the tube here the other day, very much pushing the positive effects of exercise during cancer treatment. His words (roughly): "If we had a drug that had the same benefits as exercise, we'd be trumpeting it from the rooftops."
... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB
