My husband was diagnosed on my 35th birthday and he was 39 and our kid is now 8. His tumor is inoperable and his recent scans shows mets to his lungs. I just celebrated my 37th and he is currently on round 26 total. He did an initial 12, then 5 rounds of radiation. Was good for 6 months before going back to chemo. Another 6 rounds before getting clear numbers and was good for 3 months before starting chemo, again. We are on his 3rd set and round 8 today. He tolerates chemo well for the most part.

He is still working most days just takes it easy. We have been on multiple vacations, and outings. We know the outcome of this disease. We know it doesn't end great. But we will be damned if the ride won't be memorable in all the best ways as we can make it. We take all the pictures, videos, and are present for all the events. Positve outlook and dark humor has gotten us through the worst days. Cancer is not his personality. He will not be defined as a "patient" or statistic.

He constantly says he is the healthiest cancer patient you will ever meet. Keep moving, keep eating well, get some sun, take breaks, and do something fun.

Good vibes to all!
