jwb …well, since I am not a guy …I cannot relate to the tube …I had many rounds of chemo and there was a point that I was not sure if I was alive or dead …it’s a real party in the treatment rooms …when I had my port taken out of my chest …I had the surgeon give it to me and I stepped on it and smashed it …made me feel better …the only thing that kept me going was a sense of humor …hey …at least we made it!

Have you seen that commercial where the lady said she woke up from surgery, the doctor looked at her, and said “You have cancer”, then left?
Brings back memories, kind of, because in my case, the doctor was talking to my wife about my chances of survival. He said “very small”, and left.

It sucks being us, but my guess is that you have a whole new perspective on life and dying.
