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.

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.

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