            @SmugAardvark Get married, kick cancer in the balls, and work a new job while doing chemo. What the fuck have I done this year?!

            Awesome attitude, wish you well over the coming weeks, months, years - sounds like things are on the up and up on all fronts.

                              Doesn't it feel like a privilege so be in a time and place where such amazing health care is available? 25 years ago, you might not be so lucky.....

                                That's all fantastic news mate, all but the wedding bit, getting stuck with the old ball and chain and everything. Only kidding, congrats on that. Also they won't let you have the bit they took out, I mean, it's yours. You've grown attached to it, well, it's gown on in you.
                                Here's to a full recovery fella.

                                    @SmugAardvark You’ve been through hell and you’re still with us. I can’t imagine what’s gone through your head and I surely don’t want to. Congrats on staying with us for the long haul. To many more years!!! Cheers.

                                        Hell yeah, glad you're still with us! My sympathies with the chemo side effects, I watched my dad go through something similar for his cancer. Hopefully, just like him, you kick cancer's ass for good at the end.

                                            Thanks everyone! You're all cooler than the other side of the pillow.

                                            Expect a final update after I finish chemo (October 6th), get my port out, and have my next round of scans. I'm confident that it'll all come back clean, largely because I REALLY want a beer.
