Survey!

j-o-h-n profile image
148 Replies

So, I and other members can get an idea on how you feel about ADT vacation(s). Please just answer YES if you think they’re okay, or NO, if you think they’re not.

This is a simple survey, and I would appreciate it if editorializing or commenting on your answer is NOT included in your response (Humor is an exception). If you can’t decide just have yourself a liquid refreshment.

Please Just a Yes or a No.

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Hi J-o-h-n, A break from ADT is very good, but only if you are in a luxury hotel in Hawaii and drink red wine every day with dinner, and in the evening you watch a performance of Hawaiian dancers with a glass of good whiskey.

Not so simple an answer...

Seeing as what happened to me when Orgovyx stopped working, it's a hard NO!

Seeing as what ADT has done to my body, brain fog, muscle and weight loss, fatigue, my brain wants to shout YES, but cannot...

A conundrum we all face, as our decisions are as individual as our cancer is to us!

So NO!
