40 years since my first and 20 years since my second. (Same cancer both times) Though I'll probably die of some form of cancer eventually if nothing else fatal emerges. :) Fight on and keep a stiff upper lip, as my mother would say!
I studied on the answer to this question. The outlook is much the same as it ever was. If the Lord takes me, I'll be killing golf eggs with Donnie and riding noisy motor-sickles with Terry, and doing other things with folks already otherwise proven much too good for this world.
Short of that, I'll rub some dirt on it and continue hanging out with y'all, so long as the ammo lasts.
Six years since I was slashed, burned, and poisoned for breast cancer - my long-time buddy who is a Buddhist sent me this pretty remarkable youtube - have you ever heard of her?
Right on Brock! Keep on keeping on... I just wrapped up six months of chemo (CLL), and am now in remission! I'm really looking forward to the idaho PatCon, and maybe I'll get lucky and make yours this year as well. Again, congratulations Brock, stay healthy my friend!
My Dad only lasted 5 years with colon cancer even though he fought it so valiantly. You are truly blessed, Mr. Townsend and we are blessed to still have you with us. Stay strong and cancer free. We need you,
I wish you nothing but good health, my friend.
ReplyDeleteWe haven't met face-to-face yet, so neither of us can croak before that happens.
It would be improper and impolite.
Thank you kind Sir and I shall expect you at the Fall PATCON. In fact, you can send in your fees now.........! :)
DeleteBrock, from one two-time survivor to another, I'm raising a glass to your continued good health (actually, it's a red solo cup).
ReplyDeleteThe Princess sent me this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAMYAoiCSsI I hope you like it as much as I did...I'll never let them zap me again.
Slainte!
Thank you Sir and where did you have them? Thanks for the video.
DeleteSubmandibular salivary gland first time, in ought-seven. Both lungs in '10.
Delete40 years! Well done, sir.
We may yet exit this drama as warriors.
Both lungs in '10.
DeleteWhoa. What's the outlook?

That's the attitude! :)
Delete...And ditto the red carpet to Zoomie for Fall festivities.
ReplyDeleteWe'll have to bug him constantly to make sure he shows up. :)
DeleteGreat news Brock! Keep up the fight.
ReplyDeleteTerry
Fla.
Thank you, Sir.
DeleteIt looks like the comment I made earlier didn't go through, so just wanted to say Amen, Fellow Survivor! And a Happy Father's Day to you, too, Brock.
ReplyDeleteThank you and I don't believe you have told me before........?
DeleteSix years since I was slashed, burned, and poisoned for breast cancer - my long-time buddy who is a Buddhist sent me this pretty remarkable youtube - have you ever heard of her?
