Tom Galli Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 This is my first-string lung cancer team (on the left, Heather, RN, on the right Dr. H, MD, Hematologist and Oncologist). These two people have battled my lung cancer from diagnosis in February 2004 to today, more than seventeen years of intense engagement. Three things happened today: I was pronounced NED, Dr. H said CURE, and I was issued a new oncologist. My physician is retiring after 40 years of clinical practice. Of course I'm ecstatic! I'm over-the-moon. I'm eternally grateful for my team's skills, persistence, and tenaciousness. So this is it. I've gone from hope to CURE, and if I can do it, so can you! Stay the course. Tom PS--we all had two COVID vaccines and believed it worth unmasking to photograph this auspicious event.
