I'm much in the same boat, but I wish I shared your optimism

Two people who are pretty close to me just got the news that they have cancer. Life will go on and we still plan on having good parties with them this season, chemo or not. Best of luck to you.

WOW!  Really sorry to hear that Rick!  They both got the news at the same time?  Mind if I ask where the cancer is located?  My mom fought cancer for just over 30 years and went through chemo three times.  How "late" was theirs when diagnosed?

Not at the same time for both. One just got the news two days ago and I don't know all the details except that it involves lymph nodes and might be in the early stages. Another has been fighting for a bit, thought they had it licked but has to go back for more treatment. Still another has been fighting for over 5 years now, I think, when initially was only given less than a year. You never know but it doesn't look good at the moment for the 5 year fighter. All in the same tight group of friends and family.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

I know it's cheesy and the last thing a bummed out dude wants to hear at the time, but optimism really is a choice.  I'm no optimist, of course, but  I can generally just force myself to think about what I'm doing, and try to keep what I'm doing positive. 

Yeah, yeah, I'll shut up now.  Grin

My mom's started out in the musculature around the junction of her neck and tongue.   It stayed there for many years (off and on), then radicalized and moved into her lymph nodes and finally her lungs amongst other places.  There were quite a few times when the doctors gave  my mom a short time-span, but were then proven wrong.  Like you said, you never know how these things are going to turn out and a positive (all things considered) outlook on it can sometimes be the best medicine.

Thanks to the awesomeness that is my ever-changing schedule, I am working Friday.   But I will be minimizing my time there.  I guess what I'm saying is, we'll see.

Those of us who are in the private retail sector will be working on Friday. I won't complain.
