Upon returning from a long day in Portland with Laurie and Lana yesterday, I feel like THE Prize Fighter in a highly publicized 15 round heavy weight bout. It is Round 3 and I am feeling great. I dance and weave around my opponent – cancer cells and chemotherapy drug side effects!
Dr. Beer, the leader of my western medical team and Carter Blue, the leader of my eastern medical team, escorted me into the ring yesterday. Also in my corner were my coaches and staunch supporters, Laurie and Lana (Susan’s substitute). Immediately behind them were my closest fans that have flooded me with well wishes and supportive emails, texts and blog comments over the last 24 hours.
The pre-battle prediction was that I would be cruising through Round 3 (now) but by round 10 (in about 30 hours), I would be dealt some devastating blows, desperately hanging onto the ropes and reeling from fatigue. Early results are in and I am crushing it. PSA levels are now down to 2.43 (another 28% drop) and blood test results indicate that the liver is holding strong.
I love my team! With their enduring support I fully expect to make it though the later rounds and exit victorious by Round 15. Hang in there with me and enjoy the show!
More to come…………………….
And at that 15 round heavy weight bout I am your biggest fan right in your corner cheering you on. No one can knock out my brother!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY EVE
Love,
Linda
BRAVO Linda – Thank you so very much!
Wow Mike! I’m with you. WE are with you. Always. You are doing so amazingly great. You GO Mike! AND… on top of your CONTINUAL SUCCESSES, YOU are adorably beautifully cute! Lookin’ good Mike. Keep going.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Congrats on an even lower PSA (2.43). Obviously this is good news and I meant to ask you why when I saw you last week. Does this mean that fewer of the Prostate Antigens around means there are fewer Cancer cells to fight? And therefore the Cancer is getting its ass kicked?
