Monday was my first day back to work; it was like I never left. It was wonderful to see all of my friends and co-workers. I have been able to come home each night and still walk, although it was raining both Thursday and Friday nights so I didn’t walk those days. I am sure those of you in the eastern part of the country do not fell sorry for me.
On Friday we saw my surgeon and he said on a scale from 1-10 that I was recovering at a 9 ½ which was nice to hear. My mouth is better, I still have no taste and my mouth is always dry as I have no saliva, it may take a year for that to get better. I ask what the procedure would be if the PET scan came back showing cancer on my tongue or in one of the lymph nodes, if it is on the tongue they will do a biopsy first and if it is in the lymph nodes then surgery I would be in the hospital two days and back at work in two weeks. There is always the possibility that the cancer could spread into another part of my body and that would not be good. I tell you this for information only as I know the cancer is gone from my body that is how I think, how I believe and what I know to be true in my heart.
Patty and I are happy and doing well, I am getting better, stronger and improving all the time.
I still choose to Fight On.
Love Michael
