So sorry Donny. Thoughts and healing prayers your way.
Thanks buddy Cancer sucks but you learn to live with it. I stay very positive it has helped greatly.

He knows me too well and he knows I wear my emotions on my shirt sleeve.......
Cancer is an insidious disease. You're now in my thoughts and prayers for all time.
When I was coming up as a youngster the 'C' word was a death sentence. That is far from true anymore. While cancer remains a horrible malady, many, many, many things can be done to allow people to live with or whip cancer altogether. And it seems those with fight are the ones who benefit the most. That's because they manage their own healthcare (instead of leaving it to administrators and busy doctors), find the right doctors, and follow their doctor's orders.
Then it's time to toughen up and don't tell me you're too old. Just do it. He's a sick man and doesn't need you being a Gloomy Gus. He needs to see a positive face and hear strong words. You said he had a good chance at recovery. So then focus on that. Right?
True if it was 3-5 years ago I would have been dead by now with this blood cancer (multiple myeloma) But with the recent new drugs and chemo life is extended greatly and I might have a fighting chance.

He's going to pull through this. Yes he is. And sir, yes sir. I'll toughen up. Just cuz you tolden me to.......
I was born with an infection and was not expected to live. Doc's told Dad to come to the hospital and say goodbye to his third child. Fortunately, there was an antibiotic that had just started to gain widespread use. It was called penicillin. Sometimes it isn't what your malady is as much as when you have the malady.
Thank you. That's nice, but don't do it for me. Do it for him.
I was caring for my dying mom in the hospital for the last month of her life. Chasing doctors, administering meds, getting her to her appointments, etc.. She laid in intensive care the last week and while everyone knew she was going to die I didn't. I kept fighting, kept chasing, kept kicking .... I got her to do things she would not have done otherwise. Turns out it didn't help but she tried. After she died, I found I had plenty of opportunity to cry. But I was damned if I was ever going to let her see me cry. It might not be much, but she went out knowing she did her best. "Do not go gentle into that good night".
Maybe an ECF member would volunteer to be a ProVape Forum moderator. They could help keep the riff raff out. Only thing is they would not be allowed to drift outside of the ProVape Forum as they would be considered a ProVape employee. It would have to be someone who has no desire to go outside of this forum (or maybe someone who should know better to leave the forum....Ping...cough, cough).I was just rereading an old thread. It appears nothing has changed...
From May 2013:
"You do not want a ProVari if...
you feel the need to post in the ProVari Enthusiasts sub-forum to announce you don't want a ProVari."
Care
Thank you. That's nice, but don't do it for me. Do it for him.

Well, the I'll do it cuz you told me to, was a bit tongue in cheek. I will be strong for him. The good news is I don't think he's leaving us anytime soon.
yet.
