I am Cured!

I got the call today. Three and a half years, two surgeries.
It's gone without a trace. Cured!

Thanks to everyone for your support, prayers and positive vibes...

    Awesome news! What a great way to ring in the new year!

    I've never had cancer but both my wife and mother. My wife's was in her neck and jaw and they got it all in one surgery and she's been cancer free for 23 yrs. My mother had breast cancer a few years ago and she still takes meds but she's doing fine.

    Congratulations, Patrick! I just came upon your blog from a comment you left of Francisca's blog. I am a ten year survivor of thyroid cancer.
    I enjoyed your photos of the California coast as I recently returned from a similar trip. Happy and healthy 2012!

  53. Ms. BeckyJanuary 2, 2012 at 7:34 PM

    this is wonderful news. I didn't know of your on-going battle. My endocrinologist assures me that thyroid cancer in women is uncommon as she monitors my nodes/spots. the fine-needle aspirations are a real drag. I'm so happy that you're in the clear. this is joyful news for the new year. wishing you all the best in 2012 Pat.
