Treatment day

Got the word from Sloan last week on treatment. I head in on wednesday to be setup for radiation therapy. It starts friday, six weeks and it's all done. They removed all tumor that could be seen and this treatment will destroy any remaining cancerous cells.

It should clear things a few years and give them time to invent an easier treatment that will beat tumors, grow back good brain. :)

Got permission to ride again, hook up the bike and computrainer tomorrow, should be fun after six weeks off.

Hey Mike, good to see you out here on the "Blogosphere".

Didn't realize you were still undergoing treatment. You are one tough son of a bitch. Can't imagine the stuff you've been through.

Looking forward to trying (in vain) to hold your wheel this coming season. Get well and come back strong.
