Paul, Our thoughts and prayers and love are with you! Rusty We Band of Brothers! DRSS, NRA & SCI Life Member "I am rejoiced at my fate. Do not be uneasy about me, for I am with my friends." ----- David Crockett in his last letter (to his children), January 9th, 1836 "I will never forsake Texas and her cause. I am her son." ----- Jose Antonio Navarro, from Mexican Prison in 1841 "for I have sworn upon the altar of god eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man." Thomas Jefferson Declaration of Arbroath April 6, 1320-“. . .It is not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.” | |||

From one Paul to another: Knowledge is power - know the options, know the standard therapies, know the experimental opportunities out there; Traveling to the most reputable cancer center with the most advanced therapies and access to cutting edge experimental therapies is worth both the time and money; Statistics are averages of tens of thousands of people with an infinite number of different and additional problems. Statistics are meaningless when it comes to a single person. People win the lottery every day despite the "odds". I spend every moment of every day winning against the most desperate situations. I fight for "the next second" because every second alive means another second to fight. And I win most of my battles. Battle on, my brother - you have my prayers and you have my soul fighting right along side of you.

Paul and Ed: I come from a family that has been ravaged by cancer so I have a pretty good idea what you are going through. I am not a praying kind of guy but if there is anything my wife and I can do for you or you need anything in my neck of the woods, please let us know.

Tom ...I say that hunters go into Paradise when they die, and live in this world more joyfully than any other men. -Edward, duke of York ". . . when a man has shot an elephant his life is full." ~John Alfred Jordan "The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt.

A letter sent to Paul's friends in Corinth included: "Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort..." [2 Corinthians 1:2,3] Paul [577NitroExpress]-- I pray that the the God of All Comfort would be with you, Ewan and all those close to you and that Karin would receive perfect healing. Jack [BigFiveJack] -- We do hope that all goes well with your wife's thyroid situation. RAC-- Please let us know how things go with your father-in-law. We pray that all will be OK. Ed [505ED] -- I'm so glad to hear that your wife's chemo is wrapped up and that things are looking great! Bailey Bradshaw-- Great news regarding your father-in-law's progress! boondoggle-- Wonderful news that your son got to ring the "I'm done" bell at the completion of radiation therapy and was declared NED (No Evidence of Disease) after his chemo wrapped up. And JPK-- Praise the Great Physician for another decade with your mother! My mom went to be with the Lord in '95... it was her time to be out of the groaning of this realm and in perfect peace. I did especially miss having her around when my oldest graduated from high school a year ago this week... but, I believe that there will be much to celebrate for all eternity together. Palmer-- Thanks for the good words... truly "It is the times like these that teach us the real priorities." | |||

It was the memorial Day weekend of 2005 when my wife and I entered into the abiss known as CANCER. Our life has been changed and touched in so many ways since. Pams is stage 3C Ovarian, and her outlook is far better than the predictions have been. I will add your wife to my prayers for they do help, stay strong and support her to the maximum.

Friends: Words cannot describe how touching and supportive it is to read each of your posts. Thank you SO VERY MUCH for your thoughts and prayers for my beautiful wife! As an update, early last week we contacted Karin's oncologist because she was experiencing a SEVER side effect from Tarceva; facial rash with sever acne. This was four days after her first pill The doctor asked that she come in. Great. Her I go getting another bout of bad news. The doctor looked at her condition, saw how bad it was, and said, "I'm so sorry you have this rash and it is so uncomfortable for you, but this means the drug is working!!!!!!! We don't normally see this until two weeks out, so to see it this early, and this bad, is a VERY good sign!" What GLORIOUS NEWS! Karin's spirits and physical abilities have been a lot better since starting Tarceva and radiation! We have more dr. visits over the next few weeks, but won't know anything for at least a month. I will be sure to update everyone as updates occur! All the best, Your internet friend, Paul 577NitroExpress Double Rifle Shooters Society Francotte .470 Nitro Express If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming... | |||

Paul, Thoughts and prayers are with you, your wife, and family. I understand what you are going thru. Almost 12 years ago I was in the same situation as you. My wife was diagnosed with lymphoma for the second time. It was a tough fight but she beat it and has been clear for 10 years now. Keep your faith and you and she will over come this! God be with you all! Adam 30+ years experience tells me that perfection hit at .264. Others are adequate but anything before or after is wishful thinking. | |||
