I'm still stage 4, cancer is basically stable. CEA has doubled since june but hasn't changed in a few months. My latest CEA was 125, but it has been 5000+ before so I'm not sweating a 125.

    That's good to hear, John. I'm sure you are relieved with that score given where you have been in your fight.

    Good to see you - my DaVinci story just got aired last night on local TV news - I'm going to be sending a link out to it, so everyone can see the same broadcast that I did on live TV - the magic of technology makes it possile for the whole community to see it if they want to.

    I do hope you tune in to check it out - know you like cutting edge stuff - and being the first person here in North Texaas to do it, made medical history down here.

    I like being out on "point" and clearing the path for someone else and know you do too.

    Take it EZ!

    Stable is good!! I agree
    Stable is good!! I agree with you about your CEA. Over 5000+ 125 sounds real good. I hope you remain sable. Better yet would love to hear things are shinking and your CEA is really going down. Best to you John, Paula
