Re: For what it's worth
 
I had surgery 11/27 to remove a malignant tumor from my right lung, losing the middle lobe in the process. Recovery has sucked, upcoming scans are anxiety-filled. But, going through something like this sure puts things in perspective. We didn’t decorate for Christmas, no big deal, being with those I love mattered, not the glitter and sparkle. You find out real quick who your true friends are. This coming race season I could care less where we park, what the run schedule is, the payouts. I’m just thankful I’ll be there to enjoy it with my son. Cancer sucks. Prayers to those doing all they can to get through it.

Yep, it does. May God bless you, and heal your body and mind.


Cancer is an emotional roller coaster for the entire family, and friends. It's not "over" when the treatments are finished, or even when the recovery period ends. Cancer stays with you in the back of your mind. I find that the trick is to show it no fear, to use the experience to make you far more aware of everything in life, and appreciate every second.

This is a very apt observation!

Every day when I get up, I thank God for the kindness of allowing me
the gift of another day of life. You learn the value of life after a dozen
Cancer surgeries including a Kidney Cancer surgery lasting 12+ hours
in which I died three times on the operating table.

God has been so very good to me!
