Next Update

Well, I'm 4 days past surgery and I've recovered much faster than anyone expected. The dreaded "day after" turned-out not to be a big deal. Yeah, I was a little slow, but was on my feet all day. The second day after surgery I was barely taking any pain meds. Yesterday was pain med-free. Today I have a barely-discernible limp. (barely)

The only way I can explain recovery that fast is that either:
1) The doctors at MD Anderson are incredible
2) I'm the man

I'll let you make your own determination. ;)

My next appointments are next Thursday and Friday. They want to look to see how the cancer markers in my blood have changed after surgery. That will help them determine the next steps.

I would like to send out another big thanks to everyone for the phone calls, text messages, well-wishes and gifts. You folks have been indispensable in keeping my spirits high. I can't even begin to tell you what it means to me.
