Most of the time I feel well. This all started last October with a tumor in my neck so I've had it for some time. There are days when I don't have any energy in the afternoon and need to sleep. It's strange because I've always been able to bring it.
My wife and kids keep boucingin between anger and denial. The rest is destroyed. I hate that I'm doing this to them.

My youngest had a double header yesterday and was quite wasted. I didn't want to start this thread but at the same time felt I had to. For those of you that are FB friends with my you know I didn't, and won't, post anything there. I don't want or need the sympathy. Really don't want a LAM thread but I from the bottom of my heart love so many of you. You probably deserved a phone call. I'm lucky I already had so many people to call and it's horrible to have to relive it over and over.
This hits home for me. I know you know this but you can't look at it this way.

Here where it get crazy, they don't know. Multiple pathology departments across the nation have been looking at it. Slides had been sent for gene testing. I signed a release so I could be studied by the medical community at large.
It's like, crazy.

Bob - crap man, wondered what was going on with you not dropping in much. That great approach and positive attitude will go a long way to beat it.
What is the cancer affecting - is it a blood thing, if they don't know what it is, it ...
doesn't sound like it's this ...
don't keep us in the dark - everyone around here cares a lot about you ...even those of us that haven't met you in person.
how are the wife and kids dealing with it?
remain strong man.

we've never been board buds, but i wish you grace, strength, relief from stress & dread, i wish you well. there are those who are boardmonsters because they are loud or witty or wise or obsessive or whatever but, every time i've encountered you and the response of others to you over the years, i've admired the humanity in your dealings with others and the humor and humility you find within it. bless you, Bob, and best wishes for the days ahead.

That's my favorite part of any doctor visit- the part where they call everyone over and tell them to look at this. You probably won't see this again.

First not true thing you've said. I very much doubt they think that, either. I sure as hell know I don't.

There's not a lot that needs to be said between us. You know what I've been through, and you are a major reason I'm still here. I love you, Robert.

I understand what you are saying but it's how I feel even though it was no fault of my own.

They removed a neuroendecrine tumor on the left side of my neck. It has effected my eye on the same time. They know it's malignant but don't know what exactly it is which has prevented treatment. I'm getting a dotatate scan on Tuesday and seeing yet another surgeon. On Wednesday I'm having a port put in so they can start chemo, if needed, immediately.
Thank you for the kind words my brother.

Thank you so much and my best to you as well. I understand you have your own fight on your hands. Thank you for understanding who I want, and try, to be. I've been told my whole life to take things more seriously but it's just not fun that way.
Love you man, thank you again.

Dude. I might be 3 orange crushes in and all up in my feels but let me not understate this- you are part of my life! I rarely respond and I miss a lot of your posts but just as this board is a HUGE part of my life, you are a HUGE part of this board. I have read so many of your posts over the years that I feel like I know you. I always feel better when reading your stuff. You are a constant in my life. (MANY of you are!)
I have alway perceived you to just having fun and positivity. You have a great vibe and it’s everything that’s unfamiliar to my upbringing. It keeps me striving to let my guard down and be happy.
i think what I’m trying to say is I want to have your baby and kick cancers ###!

Dammit. You’re good man you’re a great dad. You’ve kicked a lot off ### in your day now kick cancer’s ###.

The fact that you feel that way is a reflection on how much you care. That's not a bad thing.

I think the first interaction I had with you on this board is when I joined forces with Sonny (SLBD) to help locate your sister in Kauai. That was many years ago. I wish I could help you now. If I had some special wellness dust, I'd dump it all over you. I can shower you with my thoughts and prayers, well wishes, positive energy, and love. Thanks for letting us in, SLB. Kickass.

That's something I will forever be grateful for. Got little sister back even it were for a short time. It was great to see her again. Mrs. SLB & myself were lucky enough to thank him in person. What a great dude. Hopefully we'll be able to go back.I think the first interaction I had with you on this board is when I joined forces with Sonny (SLBD) to help locate your sister in Kauai.

Thank you for the well wishes too. I'll take them GB. Yours and everyone else that posted, it means a lot to me.
I hope all is well in your world!
