new diagnosis

went to oncologist today. the cancer they removed the 16th is Basaloid Squamous Cell Carcinoma. it's very aggressive. chances of reoccurance is 80% with not many ways to treat since i had the radiation treatment in 2009. the thing to do is pray it doesn't reoccur. i'm in good spirits and still healing well from the surgery. have a couple ct scans coming up and we'll go from there. i could live out my life and die of natural causes or not. i'll live life one day at a time and make the best of it.

Wes,

Good to hear from you - Hope you make a speedy recovery from all that poken and prodden stuff. I'm crossing all my fingers and just for good measure, all my toes too! Take care and keep us posted - pun intended!

All the best, Dave S.

Way too many of us are "fighting the fight daily"...I have been fighting CML since 2004, about 3 months ago I had a reoccurance with my cancer cells coming back...today, I am still fighting, and, God willing WE WILL ALL kick CANCERS *** and any other disease that tries to keep us from the streams and lakes. Chin up Wes, even though I don't know you, us fighters all seem to have the same thing in common...to be happy and LIVESTRONG!

Here's hoping all the best for you Wes. Your doctors have been doing a great job so far, and I'm sure that will continue. Take care.

Wes,
You will remain in my prayers. These FAOLer's Prayers are pretty powerful, PLUS you show a fantastic attitude & fighting spirit. Those are very important pieces of this puzzle we call "life".
God Bless,

Wes,
Needless to say, I also join the chorus of well-wishers for you. Perhaps due to posts like yours, just today my wife and I both ( I know, precious) had colonoscopies performed and I had an additionl endoscopy. I guess we can call it "playing it safe".
In any case, I hope you whip this demon and continue beathing the streams to a froth.
