This is awesome to read. Very happy to hear you are doing so well.

What great news! So glad the procedure went well and the recovery too.

Great news! Wishing you a fast and comfortable recovery.

I would like to thank all of you for providing so much support, whether it was responding to previous posts or sharing your stories, which I'm drawn strength and hope from for many years.

Thank you for your help, DK. I hope all is well with you and yours.

I'm sorry about the discouraging setback. Keeping my fingers crossed that Friday brings you happier news.

Thank you all so much for the understanding, links and suggestions. Today's meeting brought very hard news. My dad's CT scan was pretty bad--large spots on his liver, in both lungs, a mass on his colon, another in hi right pelvis (causing bony destruction)... and apparently his kidneys look to be in...

Wonderful news! Yay!!!
