Hey,

Just got home, The eye is a little swollen and uncomfortable. I think 2 more days. It is hard to believe that this all started 46 days ago. I would like to thank everyone for the good thoughts, and prayers. I am not the same person I was 46 days ago. I will continue to make updates here, so if your interested I will still be here. Next big step is to get the genitic test back in about a month, that will tell me if the cancer is expected to spread.

I think I will take a nap…....

Cheers,

EyeCandy ( Paul)

Have a nice day!

Hello Paul, I’ve been following your journey through treatment and sending you healing thoughts and prayers and good genetic test results. I look forward to your future postings and you can believe that once cancer touches you, life as you knew it is forever changed. Shalom, Lily

Just wanted to let you know I was thinking about you and yours.

Hug to all Sherri

Hi, Paul:
It sounds like you are on the road to recovery. I hope your test results come out negative for likelyhood to spread (Is that a medical term: “likelyhood to spread”?!) so you don’t have to worry anymore. That’s one of the hardest parts of cancer——-sitting around trying not to think about the upcoming results!
Take care of yourself and enjoy every day.

Staypositive,

I think the correct term is Mastisized….but I think it sounds ugly so in non-clinical settings I think “likelyhood to spread” works just fine :).

Cheers,

EyeCandy

Just wanted to say hello!

Dear Paul; I have also done the blood testing for genetic factors, which will tell me if my siblings will in all likelyhood be positive for getting Cancer. Not sure if the genetic test can tell you if the cancer will return. It is more like a genetic factor for getting cancer that the test is based on. So with that in mind, you might want to sail into the future knowing your Dr.s did what they could to catch the ugly C in time. For that is what we all have HOPE for no metastises to other parts of the body. In simple words CONTAINED. Of course that is somewhat of a fairy tale because even the best Cancer researchers and Drs do not know if it will metastisize. It is time and tests that determine the phases of this damned disease. If one is lucky and there is no return, I call that a miracle. If it does return in another spot we just keep climibing the ladder of hope and stay vigilant on getting the best medical advice and care. I hope you are in the zone. To all who are here and help us with these dilemas many thanks. Keep well the road. Weezie
