Thanks guys. Don't let me be a "Debby Downer" here.

None of us are getting out of this alive. Part of living, I guess.

Appreciate the well wishes.

Mike I'm sorry to hear the news. I know how tough it is. Cancer has hit my family too.
I hadn't talked about it but very Recent one of our oldest daughters developed a 15cm tumor nestled between her heart and lung. It's been heck.
Hang in there. Prayers and thoughts your way.

Thanks. After several biopsies and back and forths doctors say it's not cancer though it looks like it 100% but they had no idea what it it. :( sent samples to Mayo clinic and no answers in 2+ weeks. :(

thanks. She is not doing well right now and bey anxious for a diagnosis so they know how to attack it. Surgery is last resort due to location of the tumor
And to make things worse when she was in the hospital and an arrogant Doctor was draining fluid off her heart, he nicked her heart and caused internal bleeding. She had to have open heart surgery because of it
