Never give up Ed and draw strength from the good will of all of us here, I do not know you but I can relate to you in some ways as I am going through some rough times right now. It all started in April at the hospital with a mini stroke, high blood pressure,high cholesterol and diabetes, later on they found a blockage in my bile tubes that could not be unblocked due to a mass exerting pressure on them. the plan now is to remove this mass on Friday by a Whipple procedure which will put me out of action for a few months, the doctor says it can be removed and feels confident he will get it all out (hope so) Anyways my prayers are with you and shoot one this way.

I just had my first one at 55 and they snipped off like 7 polyps. Due back in 3 years. This probably saved my life at some point. |

Prayers for you Lonewolf, but I really hope you are a man of faith, because it is a great comfort whatever the outcome.
I can't possibly know what it is like, but last winter, we spent 9 months watching my 38 year old baby brother die of an unknown cancer source that spread to his liver and was just too advanced to treat. Chemo extended his life few months but it was not good quality. May you be blessed with Peace and Forgiveness through the process and whatever the outcome. Live every day like it is your last and anybody who doesn't like you doing that can just go to hell. I am so sorry for what you are going through. It is no consolation, I know, but when my baby brother got cancer, we mentioned it to others, and it seemed like EVERYBODY, and I mean everyone knows somebody that died from cancer and went through Chemo and hospice. May God have mercy on you and heal you, if not miraculously, then at least into remission for a few years so you get a second chance to do everything you have ever wanted to do before it comes back. Since it doesn't look good, I will just pray for Peace for you in your ordeal. May God be with you. |

if you've got family history of colon cancer, then going at 45 years of age or maybe even 40 could be justified. My uncle in Germany passed away last January from stage 4 colon but he never did his colonoscopy even though it was FREE in Germany. so just in case i'll get my colonoscopy at 45 latest.
Toay, I just met a 20YOF patient who was just diagnosed with cancer with only 6 months according to her doc. truly sad. BUT i believe in miracles: a different patient of mine has been through breast cancer, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. 14 years in remission too. lucky gal So good luck to you |

Reading about this has made me schedule a colonoscopy as part of my yearly exam in a month. LWEd you have always been a pretty cool cat and I am really sorry to read about you having to go through this. I really do hope you will beat this thing.

God be with you. Whatever it takes to maintain your peace of mind through this, do it. You have already resigned to putting your life and health and mind frame in God's hands, and that is really the most comforting thing you can do. The Lord will comfort you. My baby brother died of liver cancer at 38. And I will always wonder, never knowing, if in that instant when he was drawing his last, feint, labored breath he didn't look on the verge of heaven and think, "Gee guys, you have really got to see this! It is going to blow your mind. If you knew what was coming, you would do anything to get there NOW!" God bless you and you will be in my prayers. A nice miraculous remission to give you a bit of time back to appreciate before you go, will be my prayer request. Nothing greedy, just a couple of years. I will also pray that your symptoms are mild and your appetite is good. |
