    I too am a cancer survivor from 3 different cancers. I have a genetic cancer syndrome. I was diagnosed with colon cancer at age 31-the same cancer killed my mom at 29 when I was only 9 weeks old. They were watching me from the age of 28 and we didn't know it was cancer until the pathology came back-thankfully, stage 1. I've had thyroid cancer at 19 and many precancerous tumor in between surgeries. Keep rockin!!

    My husband was just diagnosed with this in March and and it was stage 3. They removed over half his tongue and made him a new one with skin from his forearm! He is now about halfway through his 30 days of radiation! Doing radiation as a precautionary measure to make sure all the cancer cells are gone! It’s been a hard road and he has braved it very well! He keeps trying to work through it all to provide for his family!! He is such a superstar to me! God bless to you Mr. Rocket and to your family on beating this!!

    I just wanted to thank you for sharing your cancer story. My wife got leukemia just as the lockdown for covid. As you know it turned our world upside down. She got a 10 out of 10 stem cell transplant and appears to be doing well. We will always have the fear that it comes back.
    God bless. Merry Christmas. Happy New Year! Thank you thank you thank you

    I’m happy for you. My dad died however and no one in the medical field wanted to help him. They certainly didn’t mention immunotherapy at all. They probably said 92 who cares, that’s the way I perceived it, because of the attitudes, involved. 2016 is long gone and it’s to late. A part of me died that day.

    Glad you beat your cancer Mr. Rockett. The world would have lost a truly amazing man. So happy for your survival. You give other people hope of beating cancer. I have a regular customer where I work whose cancer has come and gone at least 5 times. She lost part of her right to cancer, but she's still fighting. I hope her day comes where she has beaten it completely. You're a hero to other cancer survivors. Rock on Rikki!!

    Way to go Rikki! Keep fighting! I am at 10 weeks after my treatment ( 7 weeks of radiation & chemo) for Squamous cell cancer and doing well. Been a battle but I will not give up. Prayers to you and your family. I am married, have two grown daughters and 2 grandkids.
    Fight the fight!!

    I'm 51 years old, and have loved Poison since I was 18. I bought "Look What The Car Dragged In" which was their first ever album. Talk dirty to me, cry tough, I want action, I won't forget you.... So glad you're doing good. God Bless You.
