Hello,
I just wanted to do a quick post to update you all on the past year of RestorFX of Savannah and me…
I typically don’t discuss my personal business online, but I feel this is important to share.
I was diagnosed back in 2009 with a rare type of cancer called DFSP, (Dermatofibrosarcoma Proturberans), located in my forehead, of all places, where they had to do Mohs Surgery and remove about 3/4 of the skin and muscle tissue from my forehead, followed by a skin graft. The doctors told me that they got it all and it shouldn't come back, but, lucky me, it did come back.! This time it was smack in between my eyebrows and was about the size of half a golf ball. This was around the middle of 2020.
Oct. 30th, 2020, surgery was performed and the tumor was removed, followed by yet another skin graft several months later. Unfortunately, they were not able to remove all of the cancer cells. I was referred to The Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa Florida where they deal with this type and many other types of cancers. I decided to go with the 6-week Radiation Treatments, so they wouldn't have to cut on my face anymore. I started treatments the end of April, 2021 and stayed there for the duration, which lasted until the middle of June, 2021.
I received a total of 28 bouts of radiation. The first half weren’t too bad, but they got progressively worse. To this day, Aug 25th, 2021, my eyes still water all day long and they burn and itch continuously. I am working with my doctors to see an eye specialist to be sure there hasn’t been any extensive damage to my eyes.
I’m currently able to restore a few headlights a week and remove the old PPF Clear Film Bras, but I haven't gotten back to doing the RestorFX part of my business just yet. I am not sure how the fumes from my products will affect my eyes and I don't want to do anything to make them worse.
So… if you have headlights on your vehicles that you would like restored, please feel free to text me your name, address and vehicle type at 912-220-9901 and I will get you on my schedule as quickly as possible.
Sorry for the long post, but I really wanted to let everyone know that I am still here doing what I can do for my business and my clients. I hope to be back to 100% very soon so that I can get back to making your vehicle's looking great.
I really appreciate every one of you for your thoughts, your prayers and your patience while I am going thru this journey and I look forward to meeting you very soon. God Bless… Tom…
