Mr. Brian Meechan says he is “still processing the diagnosis,” but he has “an optimistic outlook.”

“Now that I’ve learned about this and I’m on a drug for it that I will take indefinitely I’ve learned the importance of accepting and appreciating the help and assistance that people want to give,” said Meechan.” “I’ve learned to accept help from others. I’ve learned to appreciate my time and helped me appreciate things with my family. Hopefully this drug will keep working and my life expectancy won’t change at all.”
