Im a survivor...

Greets all, Well figured I would share. In August of 07 I was diagnosed with stage 4 head and neck cancer. For those unfamiliar with staging. There is no stage 5 ! I was given 6 months to live.

Having a daughter and wife to care for as well as a lust for life, I chose to battle like there was no tomorrow ! And in my case that expression means more then most.

I had a incredable team of Dr's, I went through 37 rounds of radiation, 13 rounds of chemo. To say the least it was no picnic, but when faced with your own mortality you just "do what you have to do"

Last week I had my 2 year follow up scan and the results are in I am in complete remission. For the moment I have kicked cancers butt !

No matter what we are faced with in this world, keep sted-fast and determined, and you too will over come.

Glenn

That is fantastic! I wanted to know but was hesitant to ask.
