Happy for you Tig!
Yes, 48 weeks is forever but making 24/28
Is plenty long.
It takes time to recover!
Congratulations to you and Sandy.

Great to know you're done with the pill routine Bill. I've got less than a week and will join you on the side lines for a needed rest and recovery session! 28 weeks has seemed like an eternity, my hat's off to all of you that fought through another 20 weeks. What an accomplishment my friend, you deserve a "Well Done"!!

Hi Bill,

Congrats and welcome to the 48 weeker club! Give yourself a pat on the back, and I hope you have a rapid recovery. Take it easy at first- it takes a while. Cheers.

Sandy, Tig, newmex et al,

Yea! You guys are there or getting close.....I know what a relief it is, and how much I have looked forward to going on from here.  Last of 48 darts last Friday; last pills tonight, time to hit the hay and gather my strength for the next step.

Some journey we are all on.  We're in the middle of a wild ride.  Thanks for everyone's support, encouragement and kind words in this crazy time. 

 As Tom Waits put it so eloquently:

"Hang on St. Christopher on the passenger side
Open it up, tonight the Devil can ride, yeah
Oh yeah."

Peace, healing and love to all, Brothers and Sisters.

Almost there at last, Sandy, you`ve done so well!  Nothing`s going to stop you now, just a short sprint and you`ll be at the finishing line!

No sweat NM, you got this handled buddy! You've got the right attitude and that's what it takes to get through this treatment. That and the great people on this forum! The value of this forum shouldn't be underestimated. I've seen it make the difference between quitting and continuing. There needs to be some kind of Nobel prize for the goodness this forum promotes!! I think there's a write in category, maybe we should try!!

Sandy, almost there, almost there!! It's just about your turn to hit the ground running I'm happy for you Sister, you have so earned the right to call it DONE and so it shall be! xxoo
