Congratulations David, you are a real trooper.
Great message of encouragement. As the old saying goes: "Hang in
there."

Thanks Ralph...
I have always believed 50%+ of the 'cure' relies on
your own mental attitude to the illness. Some people
just give up, and no amount of treatment can succeed
unless you believe in it!
No Surrender!!
David.
