I received very favorable results today. First, I am healing up very well. I expect to be back to work on or about August 10th. Second, it's usually a good thing when the first thing the oncologist says to you is "congratulations". It was caught early and I am rated stage 1. They are doing further testing which will determine treatment, but their is a possibility that I may only require a hormone therapy.

Hey, Jim--

WONDERFUL NEWS!!! You have really perked up my day!

--Jim

Let me echo your oncologist and say, "Congratulations, Jim!" This is great news.

Jim, your post made my day! Thanks for sharing such wonderful news with all of us!

Fantastic news, Jim! How wonderful - you continue to be in my prayers!!

FANTASTIC news, Jim!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing!!! I pray for the home-only-therapy!!!

Great to hear, Jim.

FYI, Went back to work today. Just remember, when a jackass slows down, just whip 'em harder.

That is wonderful news, Jim. I have never seen you slow down, and you are certainly no jackass.

Hey, Jim--

That's such wonderful news! Please do as I'm doing, which is saving my nickels and saving my dimes so we take take some of those Surratt Tavern ladies to a seafood lunch soon!

I realize they probably wouldn't eat more than two or three dollars each worth of seafood at a sitting, but you never know.

I suggest saving fives and tens of the paper variety...

Thank goodness, Jim. It's great that you were proactive and caught it at an early stage.

Laurie, Patty doesn't let me keep much of that folding kind of money.

Patty is just doing what a good wife should do.

Jim, great news for you and your family. Things really moved quickly from the time you discovered that lump. Here you are back at work.
