View Full Version : Another Day, Another Sunrise

First I must apologize to everybody for allowing Laura Ann to relay news to you, but I have been away from Internet access.
In case you don't know or have heard I have metastatic pancreatic cancer, it is inoperable, and has metastasized into my liver, so the only treatment available is chemotherapy. The best that the doctors give me are six months to a year with treatment, two to four months without treatment. Please whatever you do don't feel sorry for me, Laura is the one that really needs the empathy from all of you. I have lived a good and what I like to thank an honorable life, and I know that in my own way I have had many positive benefits on other people's lives, not just because of my job as a health care worker but because I am the kind of person that is willing to listen to anybody's problems. And whatever you do don't think that I have given up yet, I will fight this to the best of my ability, I do believe that God still performs miracles even today. One of my joys in life the last few months has been the community on the BDSM forum, I look forward to reading your post, and chatting with you. My biggest regret is not meeting a lot of you in real life, actually that's a lie my biggest regret is not being able to properly cane downtown Amber's ass. I will try to post more often to keep this piece of my family aware of what is happening with me, the only thing I ask is that you please be supportive of the love of my life Laura, and help her in anyway that you can.
Thank you so much to all of you that have been my friends on this forum, it has meant a lot to me over the last year.

OK I'm not going to start dispensing these great words of wisdom now, but
Don't put off the things that you always wanted to do, you never know when you will never have a chance to do than.

On that note, I guess I'd better try to find a way to cane downtown Amber's ass.
My sympathies, Midnite. And keep up the good fight. The doctor's don't always get everything right, you know.

Midnite, I will make another trip to the Windy City and even bring the cane. This time, I will not take no for an answer I will sit and wait until you see me even if it takes days and days. You'll find me either at the ballpark or at Uno's. ;) Love you ya' big ol' bald lion.

Sorry to hear this news.
If there is one thing I have learnt in my time working on cancer research is that a positive outlook is essential. Lower the stress levels as high stress impairs your own bodies natural defenses.
And make sure you really appreciate every single one of those sunrises.

Why do always the likeable people get the really bad shit dished?
*throws dishes against wall*
Midnite, keep fighting, I wish you all the best!
*silently grumbles about not having finished a certain scene in the Cellar Bar, and fearing to appear tasteless for asking... then again, you have a mind for Downtown Amber´s ass, so... smiles*

Good advice Midnight.
My tagline on a motorcycle forum is:
"Don't put off a ride til tomorrow that you can take today."
So? What outrageous deed do you have planned (besides caning Amber's ass-atar?)

My heart is with you. My dad died of exactly the same thing, its one of the worst kind. My advice to you is...seek another opinion about whether or not its operable. That was the mistake we made. Even though we knew his primary doctor was a jerk, we had no idea he was also utterly incompetent. By the time we contacted a brilliant surgeon who had great success operating cancer at such difficult areas, it was truly too late as it had spread too far.
Please, if you or your wife need anything, or have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.

My thought for the day.
Love, love
God
life
the people close to you including your partner and friends.
Try and treat other people nicely even if they are idiots.
by the way I have had two courses of chemotherapy, and haven't noticed any hair loss yet.
Smile a lot, it makes other people wonder what you are up to.

Sorry to hear about this but I'm glad that this has been a great place for you during such a rough time. It sounds like you have a very positive attitude which I'm sure isn't easy. I hope you feel well enough to take advantage of the time you have left and with any luck maybe another doctor can give you some good news.
