@ShellSurfing I hope your onc is as happy as mine for you to get back in the ocean as soon as you get the all clear. It's the only place these days where I can completely let go of what the last few months have brought. It provides peace and positivity. (A bit cold for it down south at the moment, though.) I don't know about surfing (I left trying to learn too late and my knees don't spring anymore) but I found that both gentle kayaking and paddleboarding did amazing things for my range of movement as I've had cording issues from the node removal. My onc has been very supportive. Keep us posted as to how you're going including wonderful days on the ocean. Take care and all the best.
