Real name: Joseph C. Suozzo
Born July 18,1954

I was diagnosed with colon cancer in August of 97. Needless to say it took me by surprise, I thought my symptoms were stress related, maybe an ulcer....at least that's what i thought! The tumor was rather large and had become invasive. I had surgery to remove part of my colon later that month. Recently, I have started radiation and chemotherapy treatments on a 5 day a week schedule. Hopefully that will be cut back to 3 days a week in January of 98. Total treatments are expected to last about a year.

Being a musician, music is my main interest, I've been playing drums for over 30 years. I am single, never married, but I have Emma, my Bull Terrier.

One thing I have to say is this channel has been a life line for me, I have met so many wonderful people here. I just can't say enough about it. There's always someone here to answer my questions, or just to talk with. This is the one place where people actually know what I'm going through, and believe me, I can't tell you how important that is. I have to thank everyone just for being there.
