Keep doing the research! Incidentally, I’ve appreciated the encouraging notes, public and private, concerning my wife’s fight against breast cancer. I thought I should provide an update. She has one more light chemo treatment a week from Thursday. That ends over 18 months of treatment and her doctor said he will see her six months later. Looks like complete success and cancer free now. She’s been a “textbook patient,” per the doc. Thanks for the good wishes and prayers.

encouraging

but under the DOGE axe soon

UF Cancer funding has already been slashed, for example, they had a mobile lab that went to poorer (gasp!) and less white (gasp!) areas, both rural and urban, to give mammograms (to women! gasp!) and to do other cancer screening, for free (gasp!)


as to your wife, congratulations on the wonderful news!

Congrats and good luck for continued good news (both your family and the future of cancer research!)

Simply can't help yourself, from a totally selfish comment, in a feel good/ success post.
This is why people don't care for you.
God Speed to Mrs Aloha ! with no political comment at all! Women mothered us all!

That’s just one of many reasons. There’s a group on the far left that lack a single redeeming quality. Just humorless miserable people you’d never want to hang with under any circumstances. Orange man shitter is at the top of the list

Last update on my wife. She had that last chemo and only needs the port removed then she's good to go and will follow up with the doctor six months after. She's at work (small CPA firm) finishing up a busy tax season today. Next month she's going to visit our daughter in Arizona for three weeks, give or take, while I hang here to take care of some things. They can do mother-daughter stuff! ;) I just got back from a weeklong visit with our daughter yesterday and helped her with getting the best deal on a nice and practical used car. She traded in the car she "bought" from me. Even the routine maintenance on that one was too expensive for her. She's now in good shape with her vehicle situation.

Just remember she's probably still immunocompromised and be careful who she's around until she regains her full immunity. An N95 mask will do wonders in that regard.

Here's a source if you need one:


Congratulations and continued prayers for her complete recovery...

Sorry to hear Aloha... glad she is fighting it hard!

I've received some frustrating cancer news of lates - two forty year old moms, one with stage 2 breast cancer and the other an IU mom who was recently diagnosed with cancer (not breast). Unfortunately for her, it was Stage 3, but I am optimistic she'll kick its ass - hopefully for her three kids' sake!

Best wishes. Cancer can be beaten. My wife’s was Stage 3B or whatever is just below Stage 4. Looks like she’s beating it. My dad was Stage 4 Colin cancer 5 years ago and looks like he’s beaten it. The moms will beat it too!

That’s great news! Is there a hereditary link within the family?
