Post-Op: 18 months, 10 days

Good news. I’m still cancer free.
The official word came from my surgeon, a most jovial Dr. Khurshid Guru, late Thursday afternoon in one of those little examining rooms in the urology clinic at Roswell Park Cancer Institute.

All those tests I took at Roswell Park on Tuesday came back good. Blood, X-ray, CAT scan, everything in there looks fine. Kidney function is excellent. My stoma thing is in great shape. Good cholesterol could be better, however. We’ll have to work on that from now until the next exam around the time I’m celebrating my 75th birthday six months from now.
