Talking Beat it! Beat it! I couldn't be defeated

I'm so happy right now, I could scream. Yesterday the Dr. appt. went very well. I know many of you have been supporting me and following my progress through my battle, and believe me it was at times a nasty battle with AML (Leukemia). The Dr. reports, I am cancer FREE!, and I now have greater than 99% the donors marrow which is pretty much a cure. I cried all day yesterday, and didn't sleep at all last night. The ups and downs both physical and mental were some of the worst days of my life, but my sassy, stubburn, strong temprament have helped me get through this, along with the thoughts and prayers of friends and family like ALL of you guys. Also I have a 69 TA Tribute car to build, and I WILL SEE that happen come hell or high water. Imune system still isn't 100% and I'm still on a significant amount of meds. Not working for atleast another year, as in the field with Kids, they could make me really sick. I'll have to get all my childhood shots all over again once my new imune system is working, as mine is gone and everything is the donors now. Well that's about it, just wanted to share a little good news for a change, Cancer seems to take to many good people way to soon these days.

That cure word sounds great. Congratulations & Praise God.

I suggest a book "Knockout" by Suzzane Somers. A read you will be sure to appreciate.

You must have one hell of a will MA. AML took one of my best friends last October & he left a beautiful wife and three wonderful kids all under the age of 13.

Congratulations & enjoy your new life as a survivor.

I am crying right now.

God Bless you MaryAnn.

Congratulations, may you live a long and happy life with your beloved family.

I lost a very close family member earlier this year to that evil cancer, I'm so happy that you are well my dear.

Love, Bart
