Its time to bow out for a while.
I had to go see my mechanic this morning to finish up a repair begun yesterday. He's also a friend so as I left I said "well, if I don't see you in about a week and a half I guess I won't be seeing you". I guess I should say the same thing here.

I have cancer. There is a tumor that has spread out in my gut and its going to be cut out of me monday. We are leaving later today for Cleveland where a full day of tests and such is scheduled for tomorrow followed by a weekend in that fine city. I am told that my chances of surviving the operation are about 50/50. Presuming I do survive the cut - and I am making that presumption - I am told I will be in recovery at the hospital for about a week.

So I guess I'll tell you all the same thing I told Darrell this morning, if I don't see you all in about a week and a half I guess I won't be seeing you.

Before I go let me thank a whole bunch of you all for great conversation and for stimulating both thought and action. You are truly a community, and community is everything.

Love,

Thom

23. Luck to you, Thom -
we love you right back - and because you are such a fighter for all that is right and just, I know that your chances have got to be better than 50/50 - you are a tremendous soul and we will continue the good fight - side by side - shoulder to shoulder - with you.

I so wish I could do more than send virtual hugs and best wishes for a speedy recovery - but such is the way of the computing community.

The fact that the doctor is willing to operate at all is a good sign. You know cancer is really bad when an operation isn't even on the table as a possible solution.

I wish you well.

I hope your treatment goes well there and I wish you and your family the very best. I have enjoyed your posts and I look forward to seeing you back on DU soon.

Good luck. I think you're right about your assumption and we'll look forward to hearing from you in a week and a half.

You must be scared out of your mind. Well, I would be, anyway. When something's coming up that I don't want to do or that I'm nervous about, it helps me to imagine the end of it rather than the beginning; so, instead of imagining going in for the operation, try imagining waking up after the operation, feeling beat up but alive.

If we are a community, it is because you are one of us. Your humor, wisdom, and observations have brought illumination and joy and interest to us. You are loved, you are part of us, we don't want to lose you, so fight hard! HARD!! We will be fighting along with you, loving and caring and worrying.

But, dear friend, if you must go...

...do so knowing that you have made the world a better place.

You have made my life richer.

You have lived well.

Your life is a work of art.

When my dad went under the knife, he stole a line from Rodney Dangerfield: If things go well, I'll be out in a week. If they go bad, I'll be out in an hour.

You will be fine. Those docs like to scare everyone.

Colon cancer is highly survivable. I know that it must have been like someone poured cold water over you when you got the news, but do not let it overwhelm you. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and many people here who support you.

I'll keep you in my prayers.

Hang in there!!!!

255. They always say 50/50. They have to. When I went in for
something, my surgeon said "you could die or have a stroke." They have to cover all bases because nothing is fool proof, even the most routine of operations.

All power to you and your family to get through this unscathed.

Prayers and love.

That was 11 years ago and I'm doing great.

I hope you have similar success. Cancer is NOT the death sentence it once was.

331. Care to hear an anecdote?
A good friend, for some four decades, got a shit diagnosis of cancer about a year and a half ago. He did everything right up to that point, too--colonoscopies, regular checkups, eating healthy/organic/nearly vegetarian, religious when it came to exercise, the whole schmear.

To his shock, he was diagnosed with cancer--stage four--with a massive tumor that was, in essence, hiding behind his colon. It was a big un and the doctors were mystified as to how they could have missed it. His prognosis wasn't good. He was told to review his will, etc.

He got buckets of chemo/radiation--all sorts of treatments that made him feel like absolute shit at times-- after his surgery. It was touch and go for the longest time. He was up. He was down. He was positive. He was bummed. He hung in there. He beat it.

He's in good shape now--still has to be checked every few months, he's got to deal with one of those bags, but it's looking like he's going to be OK. Don't give up hope. Take great care of yourself, and laugh often. You may not feel like spending a lot of time on the internet, but check in every so often and let us know how you're doing.

Heal like machine voters--early and often!

429. Wishing you a full recovery
They can do miracles. My son had 2 tumors removed from his brain and is now back in College and doing what he loves, writing and playing music.

If he can you can!

Keep a positive attitude.

Hugs

Kevin

430. OMG - so sorry to hear, but try to remain optimistic.
The Cleveland hospital is one of the best in the country and the fact they're planning your post-surgical stay speaks volumes. All the best . . . we expect to see you back here soon. :hug:
