    Every day gets better. As
    Every day gets better. As you start into your more normal routine it will help also. As you have most likely read the only bummers are waiting for PSA Results! Best wishes on a complete recovery!

    Congratulations
    Randall, you're a "survivor" now. Celebrate. Get yourself a yellow (or blue) wristband, smoke a cigar, have a scotch (I prefer martinis), and look forward to getting back in the groove of work and interaction with the rest of the world. You've faced this beast in the eye, made difficult choices, and you're still here...and will be for a long time.

    We are always listening.
