Just heard from my doctor, still undetectable <0.1.
2nd post-op report.
Since I have some positive margins, this is great news.

It has been a tough year. My diagnosis in May, surgery in July.
My wife supported me through it all then she had to have open heart surgery in November to replace an heart valve.

She is doing great now and I got my Christmas wish early.

Since I am a recovering alcoholic, the ROOT BEER is on me.

Life is good!

Bill and Wifey - you have two reasons to celebrate this Christmas and make sure the mistletoe is working up to par -
-Bill- congrats on the zero club membership ( PSA<0.10 - there is no such thing as an absolute zero) and congrats to Wifey for getting through the heart valve diagnosis and surgery....

holiday hugs for a happy Christmas and a boring New Year .
:)

way to go on that zero, congratulations

good luck with your wife's heart surgery recovery, sounds like you guys had your plate full this year

i am a non-drinker, and love root beer, still prefer a good bottle of the real "Frosty" root beer, though harder to find living here in the south.

Bill,
I hate "root beer" so I'll go the the A&W and have a chocolate malt for you..I'll save the New Glarius "Spotted Cow" Ale for tomorrow...I'm glad that both you and your wife are doing well--Take care of her.
