    Jeez you guys....thanks!

    Turned loose some more hunter-killer chemo stuff on the hairy buggers today. Feel good. Talked to the doc and he figures I may have had it for 20 years...only change from before is he said some folks have to do a second 5 day round of chemo...but won't know that for a while

    Good news is the blood tests today show that my white blood cell count is even lower - which means the chemo is working.

    Down side to that is I have to be careful of infection...which I'm happy to do.

    Thanks for all the good wishes.

    This event made me realize dying ain't no big deal, I've had a great run and a lot of fun, but if I get more time I'm happy to keep kilting and showing the ladies the joys of living.

    As morbid as it may sound, I believe that this is the best way to deal with these kinds of things. Don't fear the end and be grateful for the time you've had. Not saying I could say the same if faced with similar circumstances, but I like to think I would.

    God bless you, fight the fight, and me and mine will be praying for you. Nothing your positive attitude and prayer can't whip! Good luck and Godspeed.
