Marius' thread!

Salvete, amici Romani!

I just returned from the Oklahoma City VA Medical Center last week. I am halfway through my five-year post-cancer "surveillance period"...and I'm still clean.

BOO-YAH!!!!!!!!! *assumes Crane position, pumps fist*

Too bad they can't do anything about my scatterbrain... Ahh, well. People have to be able to recognise me when I come here, nonne? >({|;-)

Fantastic, Mari!!!!

The VA comes through for once!

Ave, Marii - Good to hear.

Optime vale, amice.

Salvete amici!

The VA health care system has always come through for me. It's the 'forsaken Compensation and Pension Division that hasn't given me anything but a hard time. "Jet fuel causes cancer?? --Prove it!"

But VA Medical Center Dallas screwed my head back on reasonably straight after my psychiatric episode; VAMC Loma Linda found meds that could do the job without wiping my brain; and VAMC Oklahoma City caught and removed the cancer before it got very far. For free, all of it! I defy the best-laid health-care plans of mice and men to do the same.

Great news Mari! Glad to read things are looking more on the up and up for you!

I owe you an email about the Templvm Isidis site. As soon as I find the password, I'll send it to you if you would like to have the site.

Ad Marium ipsum -

Here it is, 2019, I manage to log in once more and read your announcement of your passing that 5-year mark of "no cancer".

That was 2010 - in 2015, I myself had cancer and treatment and all that. Sometime next year, I'll be at that mark of five cancer-clear years.

Now, since this IS 2019 and this venerable old site has been still and quiet for so many years, I wonder if I can actually post this post....

Marius here too; login successful, neither lock nor key has gotten rusty, and I hope this message doesn't triple-post.

Here goes nuthin'....
