Been having health issues for a while now.
Just got the news yesterday from my last test.
I officially got fucking cancer in my gut.
Edit:
Sorry all,
Had a couple of days that weren't the best.
It was a swift reminder that I still have things to take care of.
My wife still needs to learn passwords, bills, etc. That got me thinking about what my "footprint" will look like when I'm gone.
I'm actually an intensely private person and I thought I've shared a tad much on here. At the same time I've got to talk to a lot of great people here and it does lift my spirits some when I see the positive posts from everyone.
Got rid of most of the pics etc.....the more I thought about it the more I felt selfish. CP has been my go to for 10+ years now and it didn't feel right to throw the C word out there and then just ignore it like it didn't happen.

Best way is to act normal. Ask and answer questions you might get. I've noticed people coming out of the blue lol to see me only to clam up and not say much.
Have fun with it.
The funeral is for the living and not the deceased
I like to shake people's hands and then promise I didn't pass the cancer
I just want you to know, that as far as I'm concerned, no matter the outcome, you, sir, beat cancer. I tip my hat to you. [Reply]

I'm actually a semi-refugee from a Denver sports forum as I'm from Denver and are a Broncos fan. Quality of posting on Denver forums is pretty lame and it's too circle-jerky. I really do like the size of this forum and the spirited political discourse.
I'm currently drowning my sorrows in the NBA Finals and if you wish to use me as a pin cushion for Broncos jokes and mockery, help yourselves. I won't disagree with any of it.
An odd thread to introduce yourself in. Donkey things, I guess. [Reply]
Fuck. That is terrible. I can’t even imagine it. I hurt for you and your family an incredible amount. We all dread this time and yet it comes for us all. I hope they are wrong and you beat the diagnosis, my thoughts are with you.

Just feign disorientation if you get stopped by the police.
You might find a hot horny housewife.
