The chemo I was on wasn't working, it kept the kidneys from
getting worse but it wasn't making them any better, so I
decided to spend January at the Mayo Clinic getting Rituximab
infusions every week as part of a clinical trial. After taking
all the preliminary tests the Mayo nephrologist informed me
that I was going into remission all on my own !!

I'm not in total remission yet but I'm heading that way at a
rapid pace. This ****ty disease is disappearing as mysteriously
as it appeared 21 months ago. I'm still trying to wrap my head
around this fantastic paradigm shift.

OBROFF: I wet a line in SE Minnesota's Beaver Creek for awhile
Sunday afternoon. The catching was slow but the fishing was great.

Glad to hear it, Ken. Here's hoping it continues to disappear.
