Sorry to hear about your tumor, glad the prognosis is so good. My great uncle had a lobe removed from his right lung after they found a tumor.

Later that year he came out to see his brother, my grandfather. He flew from South Carolina to California for his birthday, I still have a photo of him blowing out his birthday cake.

My grandmother had promoted me (I was about 7) to ask Uncle Austin if he needed help blowing out his 60+ candles. His reply? "When I hit 100 I might, as for now I'm fine." And in one swoop he managed to do it. He died many years later from an unrelated cause.

Keeping you in my thoughts.
