[QUOTE=Dugglc;4569148]Well my friends I am forced to stop my mongering hobby. I was diagnosed with throat cancer on Tuesday by my doctor. I still have to go for further testing next Friday to see how far along it is, but my doctor seems to think it is pretty far along and told me that most likely I would need to have my voicebox removed and undergo chemo treatments. I am unwilling to do either, so I plan to spend what time I have left with my friends and family. I have been married for 36 years and in this hobby for 30 of those years. I think the least I can do is to devote the time I have remaining to the wife and kids to make this as easy on them as I possibly can. I am afraid of a few things like leaving my wife and kids on their own, but dying is not one of the things that scares me. I have enjoyed my time on this board and the brotherhood that comes with it. Keep each other informed and safe out there and enjoy the ladies. I will most likely still keep up with the boards some over the next few months reading reviews and living vicariously through you guys LOL. Not how I intended to go out. My plan was to get an outcall one day to my deathbed LOL. Life doesn't always work out the way we plan it to. Live every day as if it is your last because you never know when it might just be.
Peace out my brothers.[/QUOTE]I am so sorry to hear you drew the short straw with that cancer *****. I wish you the best and I truly hope you emerge victorious in your fight. Just because you're not seeking treatment through modern medicine does not mean you cannot beat this. Have you thought about checking out a natural clinic? I go to one in Longwood and they did this weird test to see what sort of supplements your body is craving Getting the right vitamins / supplements in your system might give your body a little boost in the war. Not trying to tell you what to do, was just a well-meaning thought. I hate to see anyone succumb to something so awful.
Lots of love and well wishes! I'll keep you in my thoughts.
XOXO,
Katie.
