Ready for cast to come off

Short & sweet: Four nights in the recliner and finally tonight back in bed. Thumb pain manageable but some times a sharp level 8 pain in my thumb. Four and five times in a couple of minutes. OUCH! Then gone.

I can use my fingers mostly but had to work at it to get them uncurled. PT starts Friday.

Well worth the procedure, all will be much more like 20 years ago.

I have yet to hear the outcome of the MRI from a week ago. Maybe tomorrow, Tuesday.

Choose to be Happy and you will be Happy!

I am a retired Controls Engineer, Teacher and Code Officer. While in teaching I worked with students in crisis. This taught me to listen. Before all that I had Testicular Cancer in 1975 . In both cases I had radiation but for the Prostate it was much more detailed, sophisticated, and focal. My initial Prostate Cancer, Gleason 9 aggressive, treatment included Radiation and Hormone therapy. I am now on my third round of treatments. Yes the Cancer has returned but no spreading so far. PET scans, bone scans, MRI and lots of xrays under my belt. Along the way I wrote a book about my Cancer experience, titled the same as this Blog. I need to share my thoughts on Cancer and life in general. Life is too precious to spend it angry, in pain, with fear, and doubts. All I am trying to do is help others with Cancer be better.
