I AM CURED
« on: September 04, 2013, 11:29:14 AM »
Just got back from Sloane to go over my PETscan results.   I am officially cancer free and cured.  It's been an intense 7 months or so but today I can officially stop looking back and wondering.   Lots of gigs to play and basses to buy......

Thanks all for your well wishes and prayers as they very much helped get me through this ordeal.  I am not sure if my Doctors would agree but I am convinced that attitude has a big hand in helping radiation and chemo to "stomp out the monster'.     

There are a few other LBO brothers out there who have  been through this so i toast all of us today.  Raising my  glass of Makers Mark   - here's to defeating the beast and all of us having long and healthy lives.... :toast: 

 and to the rest of you never knowing the beast and also long and healthy lives...

Mazal Tov! I'll be thinking of you when I chomp down on some apples and honey in hopes of a sweet new year.
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

Very very very good news. I thought maybe you had been cured of G.A.S. but this is better!

Sadly, there is no cure for GAS, but research continues...

I strong suggest you GAS out in celebration...  ;D

Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...
