in Colorectal Cancer #1
...I had my last operation August 30 2010, this one to remove the top of my lung for a small cancerous nodule...actually the smallest growth of the previous two operations....I see it this way, They got the big ones first, and then the easiest one to do last...

Went to the cancer clininc Friday and it appears all is well except for an elevated bellirubin count....not sure what that's all about but my Doctor will check me again in November...

So my friends, I am celebrating one year cancer free tonight....

I wish you all my prayers and friendship...

    Sweet
    Always good to hear good news!
    Isn't Billi Ruben a sax player? Slow, soulful jazz with a small quartet? I think elevated just means they got a gig at Carnegie Hall.
