Drug or Chemo Therapy
I was sick most of the 3 months while having cemo treatments, I also had a severe allergic reaction to the drug on the first attempt to administer, my wife said afterward that I turned an immediate purple... not my favorite color.

Celebration
My uroligst/surgeon after surgery told me that I would in all likelyhood not survive beyond 2-1/2 years, I was devastated to say the least, my wife and I cried for hours after. My youngest daughter at the time was only 6, her sister was near 8, nothing in this world was going to keep me from seeing both of them grow and eventually get married and hopefully makes some grand babies. I will be celebrating my 14th year this coming April. I really wish the uroligist that did the surgery was still at the hospital, I would love to go and show him just how wrong he was.
