BINGO!

I have been done with Chemo for 13 months but I still take as much precaution as anyone out there. I wear a mask and stay out of dicey situations. People who undergo Chemo have all of their ability to fight off diseases and more severely impacted. I wish him well but you nailed it

 

[John Kelly]

Stay safe, WINK.

Life's all about risk and reward.
