Carguy49's Road Trip - Final Chapter

[Ed Fernandez]

Thoughts and prayers are all well and fine but do not change the outcome of a situation where our health is at risk. As Dan said neither him or I know you personally but It would be imperative to take his suggestion and do anything that might prolong your sharing your life with your wife. I had friends who were told that nothing could be done for them only to resort to alternative means after researching them. I wish you all the best no matter what you decide. Yogi Berra said it best "It's not over till It's over. Go out there and prove your doctors wrong for your wife's sake and yours.

Thoughts and prayers are with you Ron. I walked the same path with my Mom & Dad. Mom starting in 2008 ending Aug 10, 2010 Dad 2009 and ending in Oct 20 2015. I am still not finished with the mess it leaves your personal life in.. Still no racing... It is not an easy path and when it comes to an end you will look back with no regrets and many outstanding memories. Good luck to you and may God's strength be with you on your journeys.

Thanks to all who have responded so far. I have, very much, appreciated every thought, prayer and idea. We had a few family and friends stop by each day of this weekend. Some have brought food for us and given hugs and kisses to Joan (a couple for me also).

We have been dealing with this cancer issue for over 14 years. Have been through many highs and some lows. Very thankful for each day and am hoping and praying for many more.

I have personally lost 5 good friends to Cancer in the last few years. Others have had it and beat it.
