To all here,
Whether we debate prostate cancer, agree at every level, or anywhere in between, thank you all for the support. I am getting ready to take Ruth out to dinner. Three years ago we spent her birthday at the City of Hope in California. The prostate came out that day. It took a month for my PSA to drop from as high as 19.8 but it did.

Here's my blog update:

Time to get some good food and celebrate my wonderful wife's birthday, and my three years in remission...Amen

God bless you all... (or simply, my very best wishes to you),

Tony

Hi Tony and Ruth

I hope Ruth had a happy birthday and you have had a good 3 year anniversary of getting rid of that prostate.  You do such a great job on this forum and your a great inspiration to all of us here.  I wish I could be as positive about all of my troubles as you have been with yours. 

Keep the faith brother

Gotta love that Olive Garden. We both ate too much and loved it. And I still have a couple mints left over...:-)

Thank you all for the kind remarks. We are both very happy with your posts. We celebrated more than my undetectable tonight, but also Ruthie's undetectable. Does that count as an undetectable when you stop counting the years on birthdays? I think so...

Anyway.

Everybody's posts are so welcome. Our prayers and wishes for peace for all of you are very genuinely sent to the proper recipients.

A very happy tonight

Tony

Congratulations Tony and Ruth!

And thank you, Tony for being a good friend to me and to all of us over the years.

Your story of courage and faith continues to inspire us.

I'm glad the Olive Garden was great... 'Makes me a little hungry. tongue

Save the mints for tomorrow.

All the best,

Barry

Hi Tony.. this message is being dictated by CJ himself (sitting now at the kitchen table reading a car manual!)..

G'day Tony, When are'ya comin' down unda for that beer? To celebrate your remission!... Chris (aka CJ)

And from us both, Happy birthday to Ruthie. I love that concept of an undetectable age! The bonus being you could actually become undetectable anytime you want to! What wonderful news to hear from you today.  Hope the week and year are full of such celebrations.

Wishing you peace & love. Lana & CJ  wink
