On May 12, I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer.
Thursday the 23rd will be the last of 28 radiation treatments I underwent to corner this thing. Thankfully the results were very positive and the side effects have been minimal, nearly nonexistent.
Today (the 22nd) he doc pronounced me Cured. Always a good word to hear. Only a handful of folks knew about this. I wanted to spare you all the drama so I waited until the treatments were (successfully) finished.
I LIKE it when we win!

Norm, I was one of those who didn't know anything about this. I'm really glad that your future looks positive again. You're pretty valuable here!

Norm,
Best wishes on a speedy recovery. I've noticed we don't always agree on everything, but I have always considered you one of my online brethren.
Take care, friend, and continue to post what you think is right!
