Jay's first post!

Been home since Friday and every day I feel a little stronger.

I went to the oncologist on Wednesday and got the very best news possible. I
am now 100% cancer free and in remission. The doctor has removed all restrictions, just take it easy and don’t try to do too much. I will still have to have more chemo the week of August 6th and again a week in September and October. I go in next week for a port and the chemo will be outpatient.

I lost over 20 lbs. This is not a diet I would recommend to anyone. Most of the loss was muscle. My waist is still about the same.

I want to thank everyone for their prayers and support. I know they were instrumental in my remission. Please continue I still have a long journey ahead.

Thanks for all the cards. They certainly helped to keep my spirits up. Please feel free to stop and see me. I would love to have visitors. Just call before 271-5810. You may see me out driving the convertible soon.

Love to all.

Jim/Jay
