Four years ago today I was told I had the big C

[GRADS]

The doctor called me four years ago today and told me to be in his office within an hour and to bring my wife with me. That's never good. I ended up spending Christmas Eve in the hospital that year not knowing if it was going to be my last Christmas......Fast forward four years and If you haven't noticed I'm still here!

I'm going paddling out at the lake to celebrate!:party2:

Go to dermatologist twice a year myself Grads. Have a minor procedure scheduled Monday. The effects of skin cancer weren't know growing up, I would come home as a kid blistered to the nines! SPF 8 was as high as protection went and it was useless as tits on a boar hog.

Congrats Grads!!!

We are going through the same ordeal now.

Deb is cancer free as of last week, done with Chemo, but still has radiation and a drug called Herceptin to do for a while.

We are looking forward to a GREAT summer!!:party-smiley-020:

Don't say anything. If they ask you questions repeat after me, "I am asserting my right to counsel" then SHUT UP! Call me when you get to the station.

Ugh, now I have to set up my cell phone to take collect calls from jail! :jail:

Saw your post on FB. Were they being dicks or just going through the motions?

[GRADS]

Well I guess Homeland Security does not like it when you get too close to the dam with a GoPro camera strapped to your board. I guess they thought I was going to blow up the dam. I will post the video and the whole story in another thread tonight.

I was so concerned I called him…I could still hear the quivering in his voice.

I feel responsible, I told you not to pick up anything with a skull or caution sign. I failed to tell you not to cross "DO NOT ENTER" zones! I will be at your arraignment on Thursday.

Having never seen Nick before Vic's Birthday party, what an improvement in health he has become. Great inspiration for someone that is going through cancer survival. Thanks for bringing it up for all to see Liahna. :)

My mom is a cancer survivor. Breast cancer. I spent my 8th grade year taking care of her when she would come home so sick from the chemo. Unfortunately, we lost my beloved mother in law in December 2011 to melanoma. We miss her dearly. Greg, now I understand why you are always in such a great mood and always so happy....congrats on beating it brother...keep living your life on your terms...nest to you sir...

It was a scary time of uncertainty and what if's. Thankfully you survived it. If you keep up these antics out at the lake, I'm going to be the one to kill you ;)

Thanks brother...I was a great fan of Patricia...she was born in England, and was one of the children put on a trains to get them out of London during the Battle of Britain...an amazing woman, and she had the cutest little English accent you ever heard. She used to call me "His Lordship"....LOL....we miss her terribly....but the hardest part is Chrissie, who was sitting next to the tree the other night softly weeping because she misses her so...I have found I need to let her cry, to get it out of her system, not hold it in...but it is so hard. I think the worst sound in the world is the sound of your wife crying...I'm sure of that....I don't think the pain ever goes away Tommy, it just gets.....more dull.
