I am so sorry I haven't been around guys and I heard about this about this from a traffic signal forum. I guess somebody on here also enjoys traffic lights.

Mike...I am so sorry to hear about this. Keep your chin up, pal!

If you don't mind me asking Mike, if they say chemo won't do the cancer any good, why are you still going through with it? You'll just wipe youself out...

Chemo can have a delaying effect.

I'd give it a try...at this point you take it one day at a time because each day is a gift. No point in throwing in the towel without trying.

I agree. I have seen people going through chemo first hand. No, it's not pretty... but if it is going to give you a chance to live longer I definitely think it is worth it.

The ultimate decision though is up to Mike and his family.

I was called this morning, and was told that I'm having Chemo Tomorrow morning, lasting for 2 days, with more 2 day sessions as time goes on.

This is going to determine whether or not I can stay with this site. I've been making lots of spelling errors too.

Also to those who talk on Skype, my back sores have gotten progressively worse. I can't even sit up for 30 seconds without hurting. It's even hurting me to type right now.

More Tomorrow when I get Chemo...
