525,600 minutes, 525,000 moments so dear.
525,600 minutes - how do you measure, measure a year?
In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee.
In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife.
In 525,600 minutes - how do you measure a year in the life?
(lyrics from Seasons of Love, RENT, the musical)

365 day ago I went into the hospital for my second round of surgery. My Dr's were looking for more cancer in the surrounding lymph nodes closest to my original Melanoma site and the site of my postive sentinal lymph node.
They didn't find any ...
This makes May 5, 2006 an important milestone. Today I am officially 12 months with No Evidence of Disease, otherwise known in the cancer community as NED.
One year down, four to go to meet that 5-year survival window! What a fantastic 40th Birthday party that is going to be!!
