Hi everyone.
Great news on the tumah front. Growing weary of slashing blades, radioactive baking, and nuclei zapping drugs, my passenger has decided to exit my brainbox and take up residence in the left ass cheek of a bolivian donkey named prospero.
That's right folks, my latest MRI indicates that the tumah that tried to establish a foothold in the pink folds between my ears is gone. There may be a few cells still hanging out but they are of insuffecient numbers to be detectable the MRI tube. I will complete my remaining seven chemo cycles to ensure that any stragglers get killed deader than the career of Billy Squire but the tumah that I was diagnosed with over two years ago no longer exists. I will be seeing a neurologist later this month to try and figure out how to manage the siezures which still haunt me.
Until then have a good Christmas.
I want to thank everyone who prayed and sent good thoughts my way. I love each of you and hope that your own lives are blessed with health and happiness beyond your fondest wishes.

In the words of the great philosopher "Cosmo Kramer" it's a festivas miracle. Now we can out the pole and perform the feats of strength.
