      I have been sick multiple times a year since birth(I’m 49) up to and through treatment. Post treatment not so much as a sniffle (3.5 yrs.). I have school age kids and a wife in child care. They’ve brought home all kinds flu ,colds etc. I had a complete response but, still have side effects. Best, Paul

      Congrats on NED again! Been surfing up here in Ventura with juvenile White sharks for years. No one’s been bit yet. Just a reminder that we aren’t at the top of the food chain out there. Heal up quickly and start trip planning asap. Best, Paul

      Hey Julie, was in the tube for 2.5 hours at Tower St. Johns Wed. 8am. Saw Rock Star after at noon. Maybe we passed not knowing? Happy dancing with you on the stable and operable mel meat. Essner wacked on me several times and did a wonderful job!

      Hi Julie, Glad to hear you are responding! Darn Massy uptake! Hoping Rock Star can put a plan in place. Your trip sounds wonderful! It will be nice to get of the zipper for a while… Can we post profile pictures whenever we want? Maybe we can post pictures through that one at a time? Fight on Mutant one!

      Dang! I remember signing in at O’Day’s around 1120 am. If you were still waiting I probably glanced at you not knowing. Lol! Preliminary looks at scans are clear! Should hear from Christine later this afternoon with final results. Hoping you can rally up and make Death Valley trip. Best, Paul

      I need to make one. I am overdue for scans(bad I know) But, I will have an appt. soon. I can come to you Mike as soon as you settle in to your plan of attack! I’ve been hoping to run into Julie (Julie of So.Cal) at one of my appt. but, hasn’t happened yet. It will be fun to see someone from our MRF family. I know you will keep us posted on your renewed journey!
