My beat wishes for you and your family.
About 4 years ago I was told I had a growth on my liver that was suspected to be cancerous, fortunately 6 months later and after a myriad of tests it was discovered to be a non-malignent tumour. That 6 months was probably the longest and most uncomfortable 6 months of my life. So there is hope.

Hi Tom
I'm so sorry to hear you have to go through this. I know what you are faced with having been through it myself twice before. It sucks ( as my 3 yr old put it at the time ) . There is not a single thing anyone can say that will make this any easier.
I do have two bits of advice for you though which helped me.
1. Surround yourself with positive people only. Not the kind that tell you, "you can beat this" everytime they see you. But with people who just continue to treat you as Tom. That when they say "see you later", it's because they believe as much as you do that they will indeed, see you later. Not the kind that treat you as Tom, the guy with cancer and everything centres around that.
2. If chemo is one of your options, then 70% Dark chocolate. I used to have a slab before every chemo treatment and they side effects were then bearable. i.e. less throwing up. I was taught this trick by a 6 yr old kid sitting next to me during these sessions.
My prayers wil include you and your family in this time.
Wishing you everything of the best

Godspeed, Tom! The prayers of multitudes are behind you as you fight this disease! A friend of mine survived an equally serious cancer after treatment at M.D. Anderson in Houston. They are the best!

Tom,
I'm saddened to hear this and wish there was a magic wand that could heal. I dream of the day when Cancer is only an astrology symbol.

While I am not in a position to help with your business transition, please accept my well wishes and prayers for you and your new friends.
We have done business one time, and it was one of the better transactions I've ever experienced for buying anything.
