Every now and then it hits me and I quit in 1974
D_M's Health Update
Canāt believe I JUST saw this thread.
DM, if thereās anything I can do let me know. I mean ANYTHING
I think one of the hardest aspects of quitting smoking was constantly have a visualization about lighting up a smoke. Then I would realize, no, I canāt do that anymore.
Hallelujah. Today was D day for me. Got a PET scan 2 days ago and met with my surgeon today. The tumor has shrunk and I will have the surgery on April 10. Also, for the first time my surgeon used the words āpotential cureā. I am ecstatic today.
I want to thank you all for the good thoughts and prayers. I really do appreciate it and I do believe it made a difference. In a sense you guys are helping save my life.
Iām by no means out of the woods but today is definitely a step in the right direction.
Oh DM!!! Thatās awesome news!!! We are going to keep with the thoughts and prayers until you are 100% again.
Oh, Iāve also invested some time using healing stones and subliminal audio CDās. I know itās kind of new agey stuff, but it seems to help. Iām trying to attack this thing from multiple angles. Canāt hurt.
Eating healthy, adding a homeopathic approach to all else, probably wouldnāt hurt, that is, when you get to eat.
Iāve been able to get down a few spoonfulās of soup, noodles, Jello and such over the past few days. Thatās a major step in the right direction. I really need to put on a few pounds before the surgery. My wife talked me into trying to eat some baby food. Man, that stuff is nasty. No wonder babyās are always spitting it out and puking it up.
Anyway, I think I covered all this here, but hereās the latest Cancer Update YouTube.
