Oncologist

I met my oncologist yesterday. He believes my prospects are somewhat better than those presented by my surgeon. I hope he's right. But he said only about ten percent of patients in my condition make it to five years.

Surgery tomorrow. Lots to do today. This is like getting ready for a European vacation, only with laxatives.

You're already one in a million so I don't see why you can't also be that one in ten.

And speaking of a European vacation -- two friends I know who beat the odds with cancer both picked events in the future they wanted to make it to. A good strategy, I think.
