Some may know of this already, but for the past 18 months I've been having a little punch up with Lymphoma. 9 rounds of chemo and a stem cell transplant later, I've just had the news today from the Doc. Complete remission............

All I can say is phew and a big thanks to all the PH mob who've kept me sane with random postings, comedy, arguments and general amusement. I think without this place I'd have gone stir crazy at times.

(That enough crowing for you Mark? wink )

The bar is open here and I'm drinking Champagne and listening to the sound of my own smug satisfaction.

Good for you chief! I thought this was another "ooh, it's friday/just went out for a nice drive/etc." thread. Was going to add my brother coming over to visit for the first time. Doesn't really compare.

Nice one! beer

One of my flying buddies was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma late last year (right after qualifying). He's currently under going chemo but hopes to make a full recovery by summer. It's such a nasty thing, so always nice to hear of successes smile

That's a bugger. Get him to e-mail me if he want a hand when it comes time to fighting with the CAA about getting his medical back!

Tell him I had Hodgkins and NHL, so he's got no excuse! wink Seriously, all the best to him, it isn't fun, but as they say, if you're going to get cancer, get this one!
