Also on Monday: Happy Anniversary to Greg (grega) as he celebrates 5 years since he had retrosigmoid surgery.

Rich ~

Thanks, as always for this weeks update. 

Mike will have a ton of folks thinking of and praying for him on Monday (16th).  I'm one of them.

Happy 5th surgery 'anniversary' to Greg.  May the next 5 years be good ones for him.

Congratulations to Brenda on her BAHA Gotcha Day (Wednesday, 18th).  I hope the BAHA is all Brenda wants it to be.

I share those good thoughts for those continuing their recovery, Rich, and so do we all, I'm sure.

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

Best of luck tomorrow, Mike.  I'm confident things will go well for you.  Remember, as Steve likes to say, the first 3 days post op don't count!

Grega - congrats on the 5 year milestone!  Have a beer for me - and one for Lori, too  ;D

I'll try to remember to check in with Brenda later this week and get an update from her on her gotcha day, since she still can't log into the Forum  :(

Hi everyone ...... thanks for all your good wishes .... specially to you, Jim, for thoughts on the next 5.  And Phyl .... that WAS schertainly scpeshal of ya !

This is late in the evening (as I prep to watch the Ravens beat the Browns), so in a few days when Mike finally sees this and the other good thoughts sent his way, may he realize that we've all been praying for him.

And Brenda, so glad your 'gotcha day' is almost here!  YEEEEE - HAAAAA !!!!!!!!!!!

Jan .... I plan to have that brew in your and Lori's honors .... think I'll skip the dunking for baha this time   ::)  HA!

Hugs to all !!!!!!!!!!
