Went with my youngest daughter to get a tattoo. She had a celtic cross done on her ankle to match my older daughters, and in support of me. I have a fairly large cross on my left upper arm. I treated myself to the following

Hello, KMCLARK1 ~~~

After looking at the new picture you posted, you are, indeed a true WARRIOR!

That blue ribbon carries a lot of meaning --- and brings to my mind your strength, courage, iron will, and perseverance!

Best to you, valiant warrior and loyal member here ~~~

Mike,

Pretty cool! I only have three tattoos. Three black dots to guide my RT. 😉

Great way to spend the day with your daughter.

Matt - I have some of those also, along with a large Celtic Cross on my left shoulder. The RTs are on my lower back.

Dan - I hope to keep chasing you and never catch up. Its so great to see the Zytiga working for you.

CYCLONE - As always brother, thanks for your support.

All - Tomorrow scans. Went in for treatment last week and my Bilirubin jumped to 2.5. Had it retested, back down to 0.8. MO and PA meeting tomorrow after scans to review treatment. Just going to keep fighting through this crazy mess. Will update you all tomorrow or over the weekend.

Cyclone,
When our daughter discovered she had BCa and was headed for a double mastectomy our other daughter gave her a silver bracelet with that inscribed inside the band. When I ended up in ICU this past January with COPD, Flu, Pneumonia, and a priest standing over my hospital bed, they made sure I had a printed copy at the end of my bed.

I believe it is from Macbeth, but not sure. If you Google it you will find all kinds of posters with that quote. It is a very strong and thought provoking message.

My very best to you --- and to your family. Appreciate your loyal camaraderie here.

My best to you,
