Stay strong man. Thank you for opening up with everybody. It might save someone's life.

Damn, sorry to hear that man. Fight on Ed, we're all rooting for you.

She said it can't be cured. Without treatment, I might last 10 weeks. Even with chemo, the best I could hope for is maybe 3 years. I'm scheduled to have a port put in tomorrow, Tuesday, at 1 pm. They start me on 3 types of chemo on Thursday.

I am so sorry. I last my mom 2 years ago to pancreatic cancer. You have my sympathies and prayers.

That is horrifying and I am sorry to hear it.

Bruiser 08-11-2014 10:54 PM

Fight the good fight. You wouldn't be the first person to overcome this.

Remind me, please, if you are among those who welcome prayer or are perhaps offended by it. I wouldn't want to offer something that goes against your wishes.

Edit: Since this thread has a prayer icon on it, I'm just going to go ahead and assume that you're good with it unless you correct me.

Prayers sent, Ed. Very sad to hear. Sounds like it was presented to you as a no-win situation. Rooting for you to be able to prove them wrong, but whatever happens I hope you find peace.

I have a cousin who was told 10 years ago that she had at most a couple months to live. She is one of the most amazing people I know. Long story short, she has been fighting the good fight for 10 years and if you met her you would never even know she's sick. The best thing you can do for yourself is remain positive. Since day one she never accepted that she had months to live and you shouldn't either. I'll be praying for you.

Oh.... and **** cancer.

Mr. Flopnuts 08-11-2014 10:58 PM

****. What a shit ****ing day. If there's ANYTHING I can do please let me know. I'm so sorry...

Gadzooks 08-11-2014 10:59 PM

Try to keep up the positive spirit. Know we all love you and are pulling for you to beat the shit outta this.
We know you can do it.

Cannabis oil. You have nothing to lose by trying. Even if it's in Mexico. People can talk shit all they want. I don't know if it will work but anything is worth trying at this point.

Well, I've lived a strange little life compared to most I guess. I never got married and have no kids, but I would have been a good dad. Kids seem to love me. I've had kids I never saw before run up and hug my leg while their mothers looked stunned because the kid is shy around strangers, kids will smile at me and say hello in the store, stuff like that. Living my life alone often brought me down, but I fought to become positive, or at least less negative, and got there when I was 30. I began actively trying to savor whatever joys I had, small or large, and letting that feeling soak in.

I have stood on mountainsides and gazed over lush valleys and rivers. I have breathed deep of clean mountain air and drank water so pure I could feel it doing good things inside of me. I have eaten peaches so good that I was in awe. I have savored beers so finely crafted that I gave thanks for being alive. I have seen sunsets and sunrises with so many levels of color that I couldn't even describe. I've felt the soothing cool air come off the North Sea and gazed across the waves. I have felt joy savoring what was for me the perfect spring day, listening to the sounds of happy birds singing. I have savored the autumn and marvelled at the changing colors of the leaves in the trees. I have enjoyed warming up by a fireplace after a walk on a winter day. I have stood in fields bathed in the light of a full moon on a summer night. I have stood in awe before medieval castles and felt great joy exploring and learning about them. I have stood in a graveyard in the Danish village of Vrensted and read the names of my great-great-grandparents and great-grandparents and felt the connection of my family down in my very bones.

I have seen and done many things in this life that I feel blessed to have been able to do. I was hoping I'd be doing it for many more years, though.

That's horrible man, but miracles do happen. You're fairly close to Colorado, look into cannabis oil. Many will scoff at the suggestion but a lot of people with different types of cancer are having great results with it.

Rain Man 08-11-2014 11:14 PM

I don't know what else to say other than I'm very sorry to hear that. I wish you the best.
