Hi all.  It has been 5 short years yesterday since I had the PC beast removed from my body.  I knew I had it a month after learning my son and daughter were expecting my first grandbaby.  I now have three grandchildren and they are the delight of my life.  PSA's have always been zero with another one due in December.  I would like to thank all my family, my friends here at healing well for supporting me on this journey.  My greatest desire for all of you is to make the best of what you have and to take care of yourselves.

I do appreciate hearing you story. Gives me some hope that some day I'll be able to move beyond this.

and my new career goal is early retirement.

All the best,
Andrew

Mika, congratulations on that 5-year mark, I am very happy for you, my friend!!!!!

Guess what, if you read this in time, we are spending the weekend in Asheville, but not taking the RV, going to stay at
the Holiday Inn Suites on the Tunnel Road. If you think you might like to hook up for dinner one night, perhaps we can arrange it. We have no real plan, just mostly R&R.

My best to you,

David in SC
