Life does carry on Alan, and that is a great attitude.  Hang onto the attitude, and never lose hope.  My very best friend is a cancer survivor.  She had been given only a 5 % chance of survival.  Her first bout was with Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma.  It was a long, hard struggle, but she never let it stop her social activity.  She beat the Lymphoma, and we were all thrilled when she was declared 'in remission.'   Our euphoria was short-lived, when a few months later, she was diagnosed with a deadly form of Leukemia. Treatment required 30 days in the hospital for each treatment.  Those treatments were brutal, BUT SHE PULLED THROUGH, and that was more than 15 years ago.  She has been cancer free all through those years.  She still sees her oncologist a couple of times a year, for check up and blood work.  We always hold our breath until we get those welcome results.

There is Hope, Alan, so never lose your faith.  You've got to keep fighting with every ounce of fight you have left in you.  I know it is not easy, but it sure is worth it.  New treatments are being developed everyday.  I hope your miracle is in your very near future.   God bless.  My prayers are with you.

My prayers are with you, Alan.  My best friend has cancer, and he just continues on one day at a time.  He says that's all you can do besides having faith in the Lord.  Last Friday he flew to the M.D. Anderson cancer research hospital in Houston, TX, to see his doctor.  He had cryoablation a while back, and he says there's a strong possibility that they will do that again.  Hoping the best for you Alan.  LOL at falling in the muck!

had an oncology review today my cancer has spread and i will be starting a new round of chemo in a couple of weeks

I am so sorry to  hear that, Alan.  Prayers being said for you.

Good luck with a new round of treatment, Alan.  I will keep you in my prayers.  Keep fighting.
