With you all the way, sounds like my deal, mine had gone stage four before found. Did about the same thing using Phoenix tears. I did the surgery, docs had no idea what I was doing(in a go to jail state). Came in after surgery to say that the lab couldn't find any cancer left, they bragged on their super chemo.

Was taking my physical to join, had the number 3 in draft drawing-best in county for the number one spot. Only thing I ever won. My group left me at the base were the physical was given, and tricky dick did away with the draft that night, so I never signed up, made rotc jerks mad. My response was I thought you never left any one behind.

So there's usually a fire somewhere to make this interesting, feel welcome.
