Ain't Finished Yet: Beautifully said. You should frame this. I have figured out the mystery of life and you stated it precisely. I'll have 14 years under my belt next August (7 years on IFN and 7 years on Gleevec). It has been a journey, and I intend on continuing it. It's all about managing the side-effects and not giving in to it. Get mad at this thing and kick it in the butt! Keep on truckin' y'all. Dave
