Thanks again everyone for the support

Glad to hear the good news, and stay on top of those check ups!

My thoughts have been with you.

Got awesome news today. I met with the oncologist and he said that we had caught it at an early stage and that he didn't recommend chemo because of how successful the surgery was. Instead of chemo he is going to do preventive checkups every 90 days for the next year and then will rethink the timeframe after then.

One more hurdle is the surgeon letting me know when I can get back to work. I meet with her next Wednesday and figure I will return to work the following week.

Cigars and scotch are still on hold for a couple more weeks but I am definitely going to pick a nice restaurant to go for a celebration dinner tonight.

Thanks again for all the support.
