I'm Cancer Free!

And I’m going to celebrate by lying out in the sun, smoking cigarettes and talking on my cell phone. Ironically, I got the great news as I was pulling into the parking lot of the emergency room yesterday afternoon. Since Sunday, I can barely breathe… no, not like Duncan Sheik. After ruling out pneumonia and a blood clot in my lungs, my diagnosis was bronchitis. So I’m on antibiotics and doin’ the ‘tusin.

In other words, no party yet for the no-more-cancer news.

I still have two more chemo treatments to receive as a preventative measure which I wish I could get my mom to write me an excuse to give to the doctor, but I guess it’s all for my own good and junk. Anyway, I’m very relieved and very happy — when I’m not coughing like an old man with a three-pack-a-day habit. Thank you again to everyone for all your great support and jokes during this.

    Praise jeebus & Guest 11! If you cut back to a pack and a half the coughing will subside I’m sure.

    Honestly man – good news! :)

    Congratulations! My father’s just started radiotherapy at the moment, which is a bit scary, but it sounds as though the prognosis is good. I’m so pleased to hear you’re ok.

    Huzzah and hurrah!

    This is truly good news indeed. The fact that you are cancer free, not the fact that you have Bronchitis, I mean.

    Good show, good sir!

    A massive thank you to all your comments. I really appreciate it.

    All right! That is GREAT news! Keep it up … the no-cancer thing, that is. OK, keeping the other thing up is good, too.

    Cancer-free is very good but I have a real hard time believing some places charge for it. I mean, nobody wants it, right?
