    Baby Girl, 1 year and some 7 months All-clear

    Havent shared here for a whole but had some good news to share. One year 7 months out from my I/O my wife just gave birth to our beautiful baby daughter. My message to those just going through it is that good things come after TC even if you can't see it now.
    12.21.10 - Left I/O - AFP = 119
    1.7.11 - Pathology - 2 tumors. 1 mixed non-seminoma (75% immature teratoma, 10 % EC, 10 % Yolk sac & 5 % mature teratoma to balance it off) & 1 pure seminoma. No lvi found. Stage 1. AFP = 14
    11.21.11 - All-Clear
    1.12.12 - All-Clear. Dropped 20 lbs since diagnosis. Dropped blood pressure, heart rate etc. Running 14 miles 3 times a week. Playing soccer competitively again. Feeling good
