TK, the best of luck with the Lung Cancer! I recently received a quad triple whammy of news for a birthday present. I was air lifted to the hospital for emergency surgery on a perforated bowel and a ruptured hernia. Than I was told that I would have to start dialysis, 3 days a week for 4 hours a day. On top of all that, they discovered that I have traces of Leukemia and will have to begin chemo-therapy which rules out any chance of going on the Kidney transplant list. Major bummer!
All of this happened on my birthday, so much for that being my lucky day!
Looks like I may be selling the scoot.
I feel your pain TK.

Bummer for sure, we really hate to hear this Jim! Not much anyone can say that will cover this but stay strong and stay in the fight. Life's a long and winding road and sometimes we are running against the wind. Stay positive and don't give up hope! We will keep you in our thoughts and in our prayers.

Both of you guys keep your chins up and do whatever it takes. I know, been there done that. Not out of the woods yet and am in hold and monitor mode at the moment with all my doctors.

Those that have followed my post for a while have probably discerned that I’m feisty type guy and will not go down with out one hell of a fight.
Trying to keep a positive mental attitude, I look for the silver lining in the dark cloud. The silver lining is that I received a heart transplant 4 years ago; if they would have discovered the Leukemia at that time, they never would have given me the new heart and would have lost these past 4 years.
Thanks for all of the good wished!
