    Well, the doctors are tossing around words I do not like at this point words that start with T and C… I have still not had a colonoscopy done yet I’m waiting to get that done later this afternoon and hopefully will know more but I gotta tell you guys have never been so scared in my life. I have those two beautiful young boys that I need to help grow in the man and the last thing I want to do is leave this earth and not finish my job.

    Damn, dude. Hopefully they are not correct in their initial assessment.

    CT scans show a very large mass within the walls of the lower portion of my colon…

    Damn John. I'm sorry to read your last post there, above. Still hoping it'll turn out to be something manageable and not-major.

    Rob forgot to add that Rikard Gear is desperately trying to reach you with important product information. I think it's about a vehicle warranty.

    Thinking about you all, buddy.

    I hope they get a complete removal of whatever that is.

    That's GREAT that the worst scenarios are now out of the picture.

    I hope you get some good news about the future surgery.

    Thank you for this update. I was truly worried about the silence.

    I know this is no laughing matter Mike. Humor does have some healing abilities and of course that was my goal.
    No offense was intended.

    Besides if we can't laugh at ourselves who can we laugh at??

    Well, John. They can't fix the problem until it is diagnosed correctly and understand exactly what it is they are trying to repair. At least the surgery team is questioning and looking into things further. That's a good thing. 😉

    Glad to hear that the big “C” is off the table my friend - hopefully the solution is expeditious once they have a correct diagnosis…!

    Surgery is scheduled for tomorrow sometime between 10:00 AM and noon. They are going to have to suction my colon and insert a colostomy for about six months. After that they can repair my colon. This sucks balls!

    It is a better outcome, than colon cancer but far from a desired outcome. I’m so worried about everything right now because my wife no longer has any vacation time for the year. She is going to have to stay home and take care of these boys until I get back on my feet and that’s gonna cost her her job.

    Unless we can find some way of paying for some childcare we’re screwed
