@colleenyoung yeah, all from athletics really. For a 60 year old I feel I am in pretty good shape. Weight is down, not due to the cancer and continue to be active as much as I can. Played basketball and baseball in college and just kept playing until I couldn't any more. then changed to tennis and now pickleball. chest and mid back pain seems to be under control. Had the nerve block done at the same time I had my biopsies done. I believe my team is getting me into the new trial for daraxonrasib (RMC-6236). right now just going to consultations regarding that. Hope to get that started soon. And yeah, right now day by day. I haven't told my boys yet because they had planned trips with their girlfriends over seas and didn't want to ruin their trips. Telling them will be one of the worst things I have ever had to do. Thanks for replying. Always good to have a support group you can engage with.

When it's time to tell your boys, you'll know how. It won't be simple or easy. But you know they will want to know and support you.
