Thoughts and prayers please

[powdahound76]

Just found out another good friend and mentor has CA with a grade 4 glioblastoma. Surgery was successful and starts chemo and radiation treatment in a few days.

West Point Grad, went straight to Ranger school out of academy.

Has done all sorts of stuff since. Has been a great resource, help, and mentor as my prior marriage went to hell, helping me know my way clearly through divorce and after.
A great guy who has done a lot to help countless folks.

Gliobalstomas are real bugger. He is a fighter and probably celebrating the chance to show how tough he is and what the mind and body are truly capable of.

He could use your best. His name is Bill, wife Bonnie, and their 3 kids and a couple grandkids.

Thanks gentlemen.

It's medical shorthand for cancer.

Huh. I figured from glioblastoma that cancer was involved. Glad it's not a cerebral aneurysm.

 

[powdahound76]

Thank you gentlemen.

Apologies for the shorthand. This is my 3rd mentor/older close friend to either pass or get a stage 4 diagnoses in a short time. Kinda rattled my cage.

How's he doing?

Sent and the very best to him and his. Looking forward to a positive report in the future.

 

[powdahound76]

He is recovering from surgery and doing pretty well. Lots of physical, occupational, and speech therapy. The tumor affected his speech area (Wernicke’s) and almost all if his work is speaking.
He is a tough fighter. Like my friend Jim who has stage 4 bladder cancer.
Jim competed in and finished a few Ironmans and 100 mile trail runs when he was younger.
Dang. Friggin office a tad dusty thinking about those guys.

 

[powdahound76]

And thanks a lot guys.

Bill is very appreciative
