Praying for the best possible outcome. Sorry that you have do deal with an "interesting" year. Nonetheless, there is much to be grateful for...not the least of which is the use of the word "treatable".

Still, I am sure that this is an unsettling shock to the system. You will be in my thoughts...

The team involved give me confidence, but it is going to be a challenging year.

Nanny Jane and I plan to get drunk tonight. (We are on our way already).

I'm so sorry. God bless. Enjoy the evening, and then go beat that dirty b@st@rd cancer into submission.

Sorry to hear that.

Two good things - their prognosis is encouraging and your outlook is helpful.

Best of luck throughout the year.

I suppose if we live long enough then this is the outcome.
Still, fight it and recover, we love your posts.

Tough news and a big challenge to start the new year. Can be overcome. Enjoy that drink and join me in being positive.

South Texas contingent reporting in, Silly...sending positive vibes and best wishes from this part of the globe. Keep the 'stache groomed and the 12-frets in tune, and get over this stuff as soon as feasible.

Tough one Andy. I wish you and Nanny Jane the best. Sounds like you have much to be hopeful about, but there will no doubt be trying times ahead. Keep us posted if you will.
