      Hey Warriors!

      Just a quick check-in to let you all know I finished my 23rd round of Pembro today and still going strong. It looks like I might just do the full 2-year cyclew on this (all labs remain normal). The joint pain has pretty well stabilized and I'm hoping this is as bad as it gets…but hey, I'm breathing so no complaints here!

      I hope to be a little more active on this board soon and to be more supportive of all of the Warriors on here fighting the good fight.

      In your debt,

      Tex

          Almost there! You were such a tremendous help to me when Allyn was first diagnosed as stage 4. Those first few weeks were so scary and I am grateful to you and many others on this forum who provided information and kind words. It is wonderful to hear that you are doing so well. My husband was at MDA today too, I wonder if you guys crossed paths? He did tell me a man had a little laugh after he finished telling me  his scan results ( i couldn't believe it, and asked him Really about 100 times!)  I hope you are planning a big celebration after you have finished #24!
