Hoping those "hairy cells" are as bald as billiard cues now.

Great to hear Ron, and good news that you'll be back to the top of your game. Sure was missing those pics of yours as you travel though the canyonlands. Cheers to your continuing good health

Dang Ron...... about time you got better! I was keeping a nice metal bedpan in the freezer for you but I guess I can go back to keeping the Glenmorangie in that. Glad to hear things are going well.

Celebrated by taking the kilt extenders off my Macdonald of Kingsburgh and wearing it in the two holes. Nice side effect of the chemo was losing 25 lbs.

Don't forget about the Prayers and Smoke

The combo of the two is very effective. 2 years thursday Ron, you were right...Life got better.

Congrats on the two years BroosterB1 - no small thing!!

And FM, I do want them hairy guys bald - but from being scalped after they're DEAD!

CONGRATULATIONS on the great, great news!!!! As one chemo graduate to another, we should form our own club. . . . because as far as I know, we don't have a union.

So glad to hear you are back in stride.

I'm glad things panned out Ron. Best of luck to ya' down the road!

Chemo leaves you weakened - and it will take time to recover your strength and for all the chemo to leave your body. Take it slow - eat right - and be good to yourself. That was the best advice I was given and can pass along.

I'm in the middle of my own chemo regime and well know that none of it is fun. Once you reach a certain age, these ordeals are relatively commonplace unfortunately. Perseverance and endurance become your watchwords. But it does sound as if you've come through this well - so welcome back to the world.
