Good to have you back. Saw you on another thread, but this seems the appropriate one to reply in.

(Quite a bit of phonetic spelling there I'm sure!)
Just back from the oncologist and he says he's going to save chemo for later! What a pitty the surgeon didn't put a zipper in, then they could remove the bits that cause hassles at anytime!
Have yourselves a good week....I know I'm making the best of it
:)
No No I'm not going anywhere
Saw the surgeon again this afternoon and got the results of the follow up CT scan that was done about 10 days ago. All is clear!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just wanted to share the good news with you guys/girls. I have to go back in December ( 6 months ) for another look see.
Guess who is very happy today
:D ;) :D
Good news Joe,
Have a beer for me.

Had a medical emergency with my little girl recently and I know something of the euphoria that good news from a doctor can bring ;)
What's that you always say? "Keep turning" :D
Good news Joe
Ain't that the truth. I still remember (after 16years) the feeling that came firstly with the possibility of my daughter having leukaemia and finally the elation when we got the all clear. My son spent 100 days straight in hospital in his first winter so I know how bad (and good) problems with your health can make you feel.Quote:

So keep turning.
It's amazing how these things that test us affect us other than health wise. When one has something hanging over ones head its like trying to see into the future through a wall.............there seems to be very little future. Then suddenly one gets an all clear or at least some hope and it is as if that wall gets a window in it to look through!!!!Quote:

I am awed by the skill and the dedecation of these surgeons, doctors and nurses in these hospitals and consider they deserve every penny they earn.
Amen to that.Quote:

Funny thing is that you expect to be worried, nervous, sick to the stomach (and that's just the parents) when you take a seriously ill kid to emergency. What you don't expect is to be awe struck and uplifted by these people who save lives for a living. The doc on duty at the local hospital saved our little girl's life as far as we are concerned and the nursing staff were outstanding. If other organisations took a leaf out of their book... but then I think that it takes a certain type of person to do that job.
Its good to hear you two fella's have come good after some ultra serious operations.
Hey Joe what is that in your avatar pic? been trying to work it out for a while now and its got me beat!(looks like a flame coming out of a bottle, is it a jet motor or something?)

Thanks for the good wishes.
So I was right... good guess.
