    Happy Birthday Danny

    Just wanted to take a moment to say Happy Birthday to the inspiration for Team LoveSTRONG Danny Aurit. Today is the 25th anniversary of his birth.

    We still miss him every day. He fought like Hell.
    Stage III Non-Seminoma- 7/11/06
    Right I/O 7/12/06
    Completed 4x BEP 11/06
    Bi-Lateral RPLND (Dr. Shenifeld)- 11/27/06
    Surveillance since then

    When you think about it, what other choice is there but to hope? We have two options, medically and emotionally: give up, or Fight Like Hell.
