Hey, guys, Very cool to see so many of you doing so well. I've been absent, only popping in here and there over the last couple years. To be honest, a lot of things have fallen by the wayside (but in a good way). Our son has been diagnosed on the autism spectrum and is still nonverbal at 3 years old. He's a great kid, but we've doing therapies and doctors about 10 hours a week. In addition, I took a new job 2 years ago and I've been working to get promoted (going to happen soon), so life has been crazy, crazy, crazy. But it occurred to me that this is important, too. I recently was given the "all clear" for another year which makes 4 years NED. For those who don't remember or are new, my rundown is: pT1a, 2.8cm, Fuhrman Grade 2, conventional clear cell RCC, robotic radical left neph on October 21, 2014, NED since. I've been fine, physically, since then. But with our "heads down" in work both literally and figuratively, we lose sight of the important things. And I find talking to people on this board important. So I will endeavor to make more time for doing so. Again, glad to see so many of you are doing well. - Jason |

Cancer sucks
As we all know. But a NED is even better. Glad job is going well and son's Dx is not easy. Let's hope he'll be high functioning. A friend's son (age 29) is a challenge but such a sweetheart.
Hang in there and welcome back.

Congrats on NED! Congrats on
Congrats on NED! Congrats on life. Seems like you have a lot of great things going on. My 5 yr old is also on the spectrum so I understand all the appts with speech therapy, occupational therapy etc.. My son is pretty high functioning but his speech was a bit delayed to. My friend has a son who is 4 and is starting to say some words. Well, good luck with everything! Cheers to NED!

Hello Jason,
Hello Jason,
very glad to see you are doing fine health-wise.
About son's diagnosis - I've heard these special therapies work wonders, and wish he will be high functional. Timely diagnosis and therapies are keys to success.
Good luck,
Alla
