My apologies for not being on the board as often. We started this in August 2008. The purpose was to account for those who volunteered to be on Roll Call. Every six months, they were supposed to check in. You can just log in and state your presence. Update your status if there is a change.

The below are the last status of those who have at one time checked in. If you wish to be added, just indicate your home state, the year of your cancer, the type and your status.

If there is sufficient interest, the next roll call will be in July 2010.

    Roll Call
    Cancer NPC, State Louisiana, Last PET Dec 2009 results positive but not growing same as the last 4 years. On going follow-up with local primary doctor changed from 3 to every 6 months, doctor’s advice keep doing what ever you are doing. MD Anderson doctors believe that left over scar tissue from NPC is the reason for the false positive PET.

    Thank you
    Thank you for the updates. It will be reflected in the July 2010 Roll Call. Starting on this list, you should have noted that I have placed the date of when the person last checked in. I will show two separate listings next time.

    The first will be those who are current. The second are those who had not returned in a year. If they do not return, they will be considered AWOL (lol) at the next listing after that. They will then be dropped from the rolls.

    I will try and return to the board more than in the past. My prayers to all of you and I thank the man above for allowing us to still be around.

    Mahalo and Aloha
