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.

Of all the bird species, it's the pigeons that frighten you? :-)

Pigeons are cool as hell and smart as can be. I'd be honored if one mistakes my dingaling for a worm. [Reply]
Got visit from my nurse. She said that bad parts are just getting worse. Still losing weight and my memory get going down fast. I have to take a note pad because I forget while I went to the room. Annoying has hell. I'll do my "leaving for ever" before I get much worse.

I’ve kept a journal since high school.
Now I use it to see what I did yesterday.
My wife and granddaughters dug up some of my old ones and had some laughs.
We keep playing phone tag bud
Doing my best to reach you

It will be the most epic "I'm leaving forever" post of all damn time! It will be the first one that was warranted and not made by an attention whore. [Reply]
