Post by: Toad on November 26, 2002, 08:08:37 PM: Stand down.

1776 is now OzKansas, proud member of the 13th TAS and fellow KC resident.

He's doing pretty well all things considered. I'll point him in here and get him to reassure you.

Post by: Ripsnort on November 26, 2002, 09:11:56 PM: Ah! Well, disregard us...tell him it was like that 2 min. internal timer that goes off inside your head when you lose sight of your kid? Well, it was a 10 month timer on 1776 :D

Post by: OZkansas on November 27, 2002, 02:49:15 AM: Wow, was shocked when I ran into this thread. Will bring ya up on situation:

Had an operation in Dec 2001. No help there so chemo was the next step. Have been doing chemo since last Feb. 2002. Have had 3 CAT scans in the last 10 months or so. Second one showed tumor reduced, third showed no additional growth:) I have retired from work on disability and moved to assissted living housing(which I don't need yet). Am doing pretty good when another guy at work had the same thing and he died 2 months later:( Chemo really knocks it outa ya, am tired most of the time, but grateful to know what tired means! Will have another CAT scan Dec 11.

Nice to see that you are thought about,thanks:) Guys in 13th TAS taking good care of me in the game and in real life:) Alot of us live in the KC area and can get together now and again:)

Thanks, cya in the air(he heeeeee, on your 6)!

Post by: OZkansas on January 14, 2003, 12:11:53 AM: Yup, still around:)
Was taking Gemzar for chemo treatment. It no longer works so today started taking Xeloda. Doc says 6-9 months if we wern't treating it. I was very pleased to hear that! Really appreciate each day now. Pain management is good and makes for good quality of life:) Keep thinking good thoughts and saying prayers, I know they work!

It's great to have AH to fly as activity is very tiring:( 13TH Tas keeping my spirits up too, great ppl in the 13th:)
The rest of you AH'ers aren't bad either:)

Post by: OZkansas on March 28, 2003, 02:34:30 PM: Ok, got the result of the CT scan I took Monday. The doc said that my little buddy, the tumor, has gone from 6cm to 3.5cm. Needless to say I will have some more time to fly AH:) I think the Gemzar had the same result before it became ineffective. So keep doing what ya'll been doing out there:)

The doc said to continue taking Xeloda for treatment.
