Terminal Illness
Due to my health situation I will not be able to finish my truck. My wife will need to sell it. It is shown in my gallery. https://www.ford-trucks.com/user_gal...hp?userid=4425
If anyone is interested they can leave a message at 254-865-2436. It may be a few days before she can return any calls.
I enjoyed the ride!

Please don't take this the wrong way.
While it is OK to get your estate in order, Don't give up on the future.
I have a Cousin who was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor six years ago, she was given three months to live.
My next door neighbor's daughtor also had an inopersble brain tumor, after 10 years they finally developed a procedure that allowed the removal. She now has two children and leads a normal life.
I had between 4 - 6 heart attacks that no one could figure out. I was finally sent for a stress test "for the hell of it". A week later I had a double by-pass. They had to do the Beating Heart Surgery because almost the entire right side of my heart wasn't working. I went Home 4 days later.
I know as I am that the people on this site are praying for you as are all your friends and family. You need to help us out by doing your part and not giveing up.
Turn your mind inward and meditate on healing yourself.
We are with you.

I second your encouragement, Dick. My best friend's grandfather was diagnosed with advanced cancer 15 years ago and was given months, if not weeks to live, he just passed away a few months ago, an aged man. I was diagnosed with malignant melanoma this last fall at the age of 27. I'm going through the treatment (considered tougher than chemo). I feel the worst when my mind shifts to the negative. So much is in your head and your psyche. I ain't going out like that. God is good and faithful to those who rely on Him and He's the vast majority of what I've got now. Get your game face on and live, man. I'll be praying for you - for real. God bless!

I have a friend who went in for stomach surgery.
When they opened him up they found cancer everywhere, so they just closed up and told him he had weeks to go.
That was 11 years ago, ........ he still has the stomach/reflux problem....but won't go see a doctor again.
Don't give up till your in a box and the worms are eatin you
.......but being prepared and lookin out for your family is cool too.
If you can't triumph, I hope it is quick and painless........all I can do as I'm not a believer.

Probably not a good subject for here.
The point I was trying to make was that fighting from the inside and refusing to succumb to the illness can, and frequently does, prove medical science lacking.
Support from your friends and peers also helps enormously and if you are a believer then that includes your peers there.
