I thought you’d enjoy the email I received today from my surgeon. Ah, the joys of being boring!

Nice talking to you yesterday about your normal CT scan. You are boring the radiologists to tears, and it is wonderful. Looking forward to seeing you in the fall, Phil

    I am looking forward to boring
    Alice, positive postings like yours give us hope.
    I will have my 2nd (of 6) rounds of pre colon resection due to stage 4 with 2 spots on the liver.. I am tolerating the Folfox "well" so far meaning I purge most of it out of my system by day 5 of my 14 day treatment cycle with only some lingering hearing 'background" sounds.
    I pray you will remain 'free" and I have been so moved by what many folks here report--what they endure--and the inspiration that I've found here.

    Dr. Paty is the best!
    He is absolutely wonderful. Kind, caring, considerate, and wants me to understand all the details behind his every decision or recommendation.

    I'm in love......

    (Oh, and my husband loves him, too! I guess we have an open marriage!) The email is so like him.
