June 30, 20169 yr Author About 6 weeks on from last opp and had final MRI and CT scans this week, after swelling finally reduced enough. Doc said, and I quote... "Looks like we probably managed to remove the whole obnoxious mass this time". Although he was optimistic last time too, and I really don't like the word "probably", it does sound and feel very promising indeed:-) I'm a long way from recovERED, still suffering pain that's driving me nuts, and still have some odd motor function issues, but I am recoverING, and would like to thank each and every one of you, for your words, your wishes and your prayers. They all meant a great deal, and touched my heart. Seems they ALSO touched my brain it seems;-)))) Still be a month or two at least b4 any simming. Typing this was hard enough;-) All in all though, things have gone FAR better than me and my family could EVER have hoped for! Thanks again guys n gals!!!!

June 30, 20169 yr That's great news Phil. At 71, I've had several friends who have gone through cancer treatments and operations and have recovered fully and I know you can do it too. I was actually thinking of you earlier today as I had not seen any further updates for some time so I was shocked and pleased to see this topic back up and on top again. Best wishes for a complete and speedy recovery! My thoughts and prayers are with you for sure! Best wishes, Jim Young | AVSIM Online! - Simming's Premier Resource!
