Still cancer free!!!

Hey, thanks Brian. Btw...my BATACLE goes out to Rob tomorrow for a sheath. Tell your pile of knives over there not to be giving my Badger any ideas. It'll be awhile before he has as many brothers and sisters as yours do. : D
 
Congratulations on your news!!! My father is currently fighting for his life against Stage IV lung cancer. It is always inspiring to hear an account of someone who is beating the dread disease.
 
Wicked,

I'm so sorry to hear that. Smoke and well-wishes up from Miami. I hope he's fighting the good fight. Bring him lots of good movies and spend as much time just hanging and talking isht. Sometimes it gets lonely. Good luck to you and yours, and I hope for a recovery.

Good stuff -- Howdy and welcome.

Those checkups can be intense -- just the anticipation and uncertainty. BUT ohh what a feeling to get a thumbs up - huh? Like getting another ticket on the life-go-round.

Make the most of it - buy lots of INFI :)
 
Absolutely wonderful news, Jason! :thumbup: As a hospice nurse, I can appreciate first hand the struggle you have had. Hang in there and NEVER give up!
 
I was in ICU for three months 2 years ago with 12 doctors telling my family, there was no way I was gonna live. It was a long 6 month stay in the hospital and a long fight but you ain't gone till the man upstairs says you're gone. Keep fighting bro! I plan on sticking around for many years to come, hope you do too...! We have lots of cool knives to collect!

Congrat! Was the Chemo treatment very painful? The reason I ask is my father in law has cancer will begin Chemo this week.
 
Super news. Praying that the good news continues for you.:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
 
Thanks, people. Jason...good for you, brother.
M10...the chemo I had wasn't painful, but it did leave me drained and without much motivation to do anything besides sleep and rest. Each person's dosages/meds are different, though, based on what he/she is facing, and how advanced it is. Chemotherapy just means chemical therapy. There are lots of different chemicals used, and most times a person's regimen is a combination of toxic chemicals which do different things in the body.

Tell your pops-in-law it shouldn't hurt, but that he should be prepared to be bored, lonely, and a little bit frustrated. Books, DVD's, good music and anything else he enjoys would be good gifts. If he's a writer, get him a good journal. If he's gonna have hours of chemo, an ipod or maybe a laptop or little dvd player will help him to pass the time while he's getting the meds.
 
Yeh...I meant to mention it last night, but then you got me talking about blades and I forgot all about being cancer-free. Weird, huh?
