Patrick Swayze, 57, died Sept. 14. He had pancreatic cancer, which was
diagnosed last year.
Today I went in to see my otolaryngologist (fancy word for ENT) for my
three month check-up. I was diagnosed with throat cancer 27 months
ago. Had surgery, chemo, and radio. So far all checks find no new or
residual cancer.
I know what Patrick went through, unfortunately he didn't make it. I
have three more years to be considered in remission.
I hope I make it. But it looks good so far.

ps. I never smoked in my life.
