5 Years Cancer Free
Last Thursday marked the fifth anniversary of my L-RPLND, which means I am now five years cancer free!
This was a bigger deal for me than my seventh anniversary of survivorship earlier this month. My wife doesn't think remembering what I went through back then is something to celebrate, but what I'm celebrating is how far behind me that time is and how many wonderful things have happened since that I've been around to see. With that, it's about time I got on my bike today!

Scott - sincere congratulations on your big anniversary. You are the greatest example I know of someone who is living up to the obligation of the cured. Have a great ride.
