My Fortune Cookie


My Fortune Cookie said, "Find release from your cares, have a good time."   Was that a coincidence or did someone know that a boulder was lifted from my chest earlier in the afternoon when Dr. Chang shared the biopsy results with us.  I can't remember when I heard such good news.   There is NO cancer in the lymph glands - the malignancy appears to be confined to the prostate gland which is out of Bob's body!!  Good-bye you terrible disease!  Stay away, we don't like you.
 We celebrated over lunch at the Pearl of the Orient toasting each other with some Chinese Tsingtao Beer.  It was a marvelous day.   Praise God.  Thank you, Dr. Theodore Chang, and all the scientists and engineers, etc. who came up with this marvelous Robot.  By the way that horrible bruise is almost gone.  Some people have drains placed during surgery which likely eliminates the terrible bruising  but, the other side of the coin is the fact that this exposure to the outside could be another potential source of infection.    Thank you for all the prayers and good wishes.  The next step is continued recovery and periodically checking the PSA levels which should be and continue to remain 0 now that the prostate is gone
