Been feeling run down lately- after a bunch of tests the doctor tells me I have lung cancer- stage 2.
Went back to the farm last night and set some snares then went in and told my wife.

She took it pretty hard and we stayed up late talking and make what if plans.

Went out this morning for hike with the dogs. They stayed close to me, they normally run off and come back a dozen times as we walk, but this time they didn't move more than a foot from me- guess they know something is wrong.

Caught two nice rabbits and made a nice rabbit pie for dinner. I ain't gonna let's this kill me- fuck cancer

Red, sorry to hear this. I wish you all the best in your fight against this challenge.
 
Fuck Cancer!
 
Courage brother, we're all with you. Nice to see you have a fighting attitude. You hold cancer down and I'll kick him in the balls.
 
FUCK CANCER Hang Strong Red !!!!
 
Fight it and look into taking Yew Immune 5 (harmless and you have nothing to lose). Perhaps more importantly is that you keep your spirits up (mind over matter). God bless. Now share a slice of that rabbit pie.
 
Knowing your on-line persona the way I do, I am perplexed to try and figure out if you are being sincere Red...

If yes, then FUCK cancer...

If no, then wow... I got nothing!

I can understand- but all too sincere I am afraid

Thanks for all the good wishes above.
 
Based on the very little I've read about success rate of various cancer
treatments cases of advanced stage lung cancer fully cured by
radiation therapy is known. We have one of the best health
care system in the world so there is hope.
 
That's shitty news, can't imagine what's going through your mind. All I can say is stay positive, meditate, laugh more. Fight, fight, fight. Always try to look at the brighter side of things, I know it's not easy. Just stay strong my brother from another mother.....

Well then, In your ultimate wisdom. What would be the point, of him, announcing this bad news???
 
Red. I'm so sorry to hear this. I also have no doubt you will fight this with tenacity and your inate good humour. You are one of the good ones. I'm glad you seem to be taking this in stride and are ready for this fight. I trust you will win.

Now a message for Who is your Daddy. Stop reading if you don't want to see anything negative.

Ok whoisyourpussy. Mr keyboard warrior. Mr now designated as a supreme asshole. You are now the biggest piece of shit on this site. You have the moral and ethical beliefs of a rat.

I've reported the post. Its my hope for a permanent ban. Go fuck yourself.

Edit:thank you to the mods for removing the offensive posts.

I'm terribly sorry to hear this Red.My father- in - law died of brain cancer last July and that loss is still felt very deep in me.We've been to the moon......we've made contact with Mars......we've spent untold billions on the conquest to find the better god.Yet this disease in it's many forms still exists.I realize you can't always beat something by throwing money at it, but I feel sometimes if we made cancer a religion that the fight would be going much better and with more fervor.I'm very angry at Humanity sometimes.Again, very sad to hear this.

my heart goes out to you.
this poem made me think of you.
Look to this day:
For it is life, the very life of life.
In its brief course
Lie all the verities and realities of your existence.
The bliss of growth,
The glory of action,
The splendour of achievement
Are but experiences of time.

For yesterday is but a dream
And tomorrow is only a vision;
And today well-lived makes
Yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well therefore to this day;
Such is the salutation to the ever-new dawn!

- Kalidasa

as my ancestors would pray, the same I do for U

peace of the running wave to you, energy of the flowing air to you, peace of the quiet earth to you, light of the shining stars to you! everything will be ok,

kisses,
Valeria

Sorry to hear that.

As others have said, don't give up hope cause you never know.

If I could ask, what were your symptoms?

My dad had lung cancer (smoked 2 decks a day for 50 years.) For a few years up to his diagnosis, he had been complaining about a sore shoulder. As time went on, he was complaining more and more and began to suffer colds that just didn't seem to go away. We didn't think much of it as he had hit 70 and figured that a few aches and pains (shoulder) were normal. He saw his family doctor and the guy completely missed it and just told him to take advil.

Turns out it was a tumour growing on his lung, and yeah, it was behind his shoulder blade. It was only discovered when my dad couldn't take the pain in his shoulder any more (in his own words it had become unbearable) and went to emergency. One xray was all it took.

Be very aggressive; Go to a cancer centre in the US, Roswell Park Cancer Center in Buffalo, the Cleveland Clinic or the Mayo Clinic, and get their evaluation. I went to the Mayo Clinic 7 years ago and it saved me. It is worth every penny, and not as expensive as you might think. Old Lancslad had also been given up by his doctors, he got treatment in Cleveland and is still kicking.


Good luck.
