Wish I had something clever to say, Dave.
Just glad you are good to go!

Oh man, the idea of a catheter is one of my worst nightmares and you've gone waaay beyond that. Congrats on the clean bill of health! I hope it continues. The treatment catheter is a small thing and the only time you feel it is getting past the prostate. The after procedure one that they send you home with is a garden hose a little bigger around than a #2 pencil. My new best friend in the world is a young lady named Heather who has taken it out two days later and she's done it twice. First time I felt it a little bit, second time I didn't know it until she had done it until she said it was out. The scoping thing is really not bad. The worst is when they are giving johnson a local and the doctor doing the scoping is really smooth.

Great news, Sage! My wife is winning her battle against ovarian cancer. Hysterectomy in October, and chemo every 21 days since late November. She’s a trooper. I’m so thankful things are looking good.

Sage, so glad things are looking up. I've never met you in person (not to my recollection, anyway) but I've seen you around since the early forum days on Pure Orange.

Glad to hear that she is WINNING. Didn't have to do chemo, thank God. They used some stuff that was developed 25 or so years ago by a, get this, an animal doctor. Yeah, my reaction too. Doc said after all these years they haven't come up with anything better and it's 95% effective and much easier on you than chemo and radiation. Best wishes for your wife.
