WOW! Congratulations and thanks for posting. I can't wait to show this to my husband tonight. We are at the beginning of the battle and he's showing signs of depression. I'm not sure if it's related to the Lupron, or if he's just having a hard time processing the long term nature of his treatment. Last night I made a comment about "when this is over" and he commented that he didn't think it would ever be over. It will be great to be able to show him this post.

I'll be praying tonight for your continued success.
