    I'm sitting here drinking my morning coffee reading this with a huge grin on my face. Great news! Keep it up Blind.

    That's great! That's really made my morning!

    Awesome news! Definitely keep on with the therapy though. I expect a full on recovery from you in the next few months so don't disappoint.

    UPDATE!!

    Had my last round of chemo today, and now they want me to do the radiation thing. Two or three straight weeks (10-15 days) of treatment in January, most likely, and then maybe we can say goodbye to this cancer nonsense. I feel like crap. Good night.

    Well here's hoping that this will all soon be behind you and you'll be able to get back to normal.

    Hey everyone. So! Radiation was successful and now I'm basically 100% cancer free! Yay! Sorry I didn't update earlier. I'm a lazy sod. Anywho, just wanted to tell y'all. Also, this new round of Walking Dead episodes is pretty freakin' sweet, right? I love 'em. Thanks for the support, guys. It means a lot.
