If you've got a minute, I'd like to bring you

I'm very happy to report I have just reached that marker.

Now I'd be lying if I said the journey had been an easy one.

There were some good days but a lot of not-so-good days.

I joked with friends that the cancer won't kill me;

days when certain bodily functions no longer functioned,

and sudden, massive attacks of great depression

that made me wonder if it really was worth fighting on.

because that would have been a massive betrayal –

a betrayal of my wife and soulmate, Jean,

who has given her all to help me survive.

It would have been a betrayal of other cancer patients

and a cheerleader of sorts, of the value of living and hope,

and it would certainly have been a betrayal

of my faith in God and the millions of prayers

You know, my oncologist tried to cheer me up the other day.

He said, "Alex, even though the two-year survival rate

"is only 7%," he was certain that one year from now,

the two of us would be sitting in his office

celebrating my second anniversary of survival.

if we – because so many of us are involved in this

same situation – if we take it just one day at a time,

with a positive attitude, anything is possible.
