Just found out the wife has cancer. Doesn't look good. Strange how life can change in a heartbeat. One minute your tooling along buying TV's, and Ht gear, and the next your planning for a funeral. All of a sudden, The material things don't mean ****. Sorry, had to get this off my chest...

    So sorry to hear. Go to the Cancer research centers of America, they have cured what other doctors said was impossible.

    I have lost some close friends and family to cancer and I am very sorry for you and your family.

    I sympathize completely, lost a relative to pancreatic cancer a while back. But he was a heavy smoker. There are more options now...so our prayers and thoughts for a good outcome.

    Life is short, and it stops for no one. One day it's all bright and rosy and the next....well....you just have to hang in there and never give up hope!

    Keep the faith! My father was diagnosed with cancer of the esophagus in 1992, at the age of 48. He had surgery right away to remove a large tumor, and after a short series of chemo, and radiation, he stayed in remission, and beat the disease. My thoughts and prayers are with you, dont give up hope!
