Happy Father Pancreatic Cancer Action Network Happy Fathers Day

Rest in Peace Jennifer! You fought pancreatic cancer longer than almost anyone has ever done, and you have been called "a miracle" by the doctors and staff. I would ask those reading this to hold Jennifer's children (oldest is 13), and her husband Ricky, her mother Charlene, and her father Clay up in your prayers! Jennifer is in the arms of her Lord, and knows no more pain, sorrow, or sickness. She will see her family again. God bless all of you who are mourning the loss of this wonderful, brave woman.

Are there any Suckers-for-Seniors out there? Owner has Stg IV pancreatic cancer and has 3-5 months to live. She has 2 senior dogs, Jess & Daisy and is so ill that she isn't even able to walk them. Of course, she would prefer to have them adopted together but will separate if she must. But for the Grace of God, this could be any of us! Please HELP!

To MY SON a picture of then and now. I wish you the very best of your Father's Day. My gift to you is a wish you once made when you were the age shown in the picture below. We had it taken at SEARS PORTRAIT STUDIO, You had said to me ,one day when you came home from school. You wanted to be famous someday, you wanted every one to know your name. Do you remember that conversation? We were living under the worse of conditions in the worse section of Marin County, the Canal District. We talked about what you could do to become famous, as a mother I felt a sudden pain in my heart, like maybe you didn't feel loved enough, so you didn't feel important, and it was you, that was keeping and giving me reason to live. We talked in this conversation about what options you had. I asked you if you someday would like to be a President. You answered "no", so then I said well, "the only thing you can do is to invent something, invent something that people will use everyday in their lives, and make it a way of learning .. ...

7 years ago, I enjoyed a casual weekend with my dad, my mom, and my 8+ month pregnant wife. We hung out. We watched golf. He passed away suddenly 9 days later from a body that fave out after 16 years of islet-cell pancreatic cancer. 12 days after his funeral, Brandi and I welcomed our first child into the world. The emptiness between losing a father and becoming a father is lonely. The six Father's Day since have gotten more special with each year. Today was no exception.

It was quite a shock to find out the first of April that I have a slow growing type of pancreatic cancer which has spread. I had no idea that I had anything wrong. Pure blind luck. I had gone to the Doctor because of the flu. I have had 1 procedure to clog the blood supply to one of two tumors in my liver. The second mass will be treated in early July. I probably will not have to have chemo or radiation. I have some pain, now, which would indicate that the procedure is having the desired result. There has been a small benefit from all the tests, I have lost 20 lbs, without much effort, since I haven't been much interested in food. Poor Chuck rarely gets a decent supper. He has spent a great deal of time hauling me to appointments. I'm tough. I will survive.

The Wonderful Teresa will undergo surgery in the morning, please keep Her in your thoughts/prayers. Thanks and Love to All. Teresa posted on Thursday for everyone's benefit. Teresa Shumaker Logsdon Thursday "For everything there is a season, and a time, and a purpose." My favorite verse. My kids grew up hearing me say this to them, and I have repeated it to my self over and over again thru the years. Only God knows our each and every season, time and purpose. Now God has put me on a new journey - the journey to beat breast cancer. I was diagnosed in April. I have had many, many appointments with my oncology surgeon, radiologist, oncologist, dermatologist, mammograms, ultrasounds, needle biopsy, core biopsy and lumpectomy. Because of my pre-existing condition of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis and the medications that I am on to have a good quality of life, I am not a good candidate for radiation treatment or Tamoxifen. I also have a strong family history of breast cancer (Mom, grandma, great aunt), uter ...

why Government not promoting this remedy for Dengue fever when people are dying of this disastrous disease.? After all there are no side effects.So no harm in trying out this. Another interesting study about pappaya leaf published in indian Express. With the rising number of people catching dengue fever, the demand for papaya leaf juice has soared. The extract of raw papaya leaf helps boost platelets, also known as thrombocytes. Dengue is transmitted by mosquitoes and can be fatal. Common symptoms include fever with headache, severe muscle pain, joint pain and rashes on the body. There is no effective medicine for dengue. Traditionally, the juice of papaya leaf has been found to be useful in the treatment of dengue fever. Few recent studies have shown the effect of papaya leaf juice in curing dengue fever. A recent study done on five dengue patients by Indian Institute of Forest Management has shown some interesting observations. Among five patients, papaya leaf juice was found to be effective in curin ...

JM Here are the best fruits to consume to boost energy and ward off the signs of aging and achieve pristine health: Pineapple promotes joint health and reduces asthma inflammation. Pineapple is high in vitamin C and also contains bromelain, an enzyme that promotes digestion, reduces arthritis, prevents swelling after trauma, relieves sinusitis, reduces angina, and suppresses appetite. Blueberries restore antioxidant levels and reverse age-related brain decline. They also prevent urinary tract infections. Blueberries are rich in compounds that strengthen collagen structure. Their distinctive blue color comes from anthocyanins, powerful antioxidants that are so prevalent in blueberries that they push blueberries right to the top of the antioxidant champion food tree. There are at least five types of anthocyanins in blueberries, and blueberries contain more antioxidants than other super foods. Tomatoes reduce inflammation and lower the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and esophageal, stomach, colore ...

God has brought some amazing men into my life that have helped shape me into the man I am now. What makes my dad so special on that list was not the things that he failed at, or the lessons he didn't pass on, what makes him so special to me and unlike any other man, is that I am apart of him and he is apart of me. In me lies apart of him and we are connected to each other by more than just DNA. Although there is no such perfect man, perfection is found in love. I have no expectation that my father is perfect and therefore have never looked at my dad with filters on. Love does not judge and my dad is a man that I love, respect, & admire. He has shaped me with a quiet gentleness using words that always seemed to touch my heart and inspire me to always give more of myself. I was not a perfect child but his love and guidance carried me through a great many challenges. Our journeys take many turns and for the last 9 years I've watched my dad battle courageously stage 4 colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, an .. ...

* everyone has a story. Just when I think that my situation is bad, I realize people have it worse. Went out for dinner tonight with my mom. When we came in the restaurant there was a sweet older man sitting alone. He said " are you sisters out for dinner?" We smiled and giggled. As we finished our dinner we thought its fathers day and he's alone lets buy his dinner. He was so thankful and I'm glad he took the time to tell us our story even though it was so heartbreaking. He told us to pray for his wife Mary who is in St Catharines Hospice. She has been battling cancer. She had lung cancer 15 years ago and lost 50% of her lungs. About 6 years she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Although all of you have a busy schedule please take a few minutes to pray for this lovely family. That she doesn't suffer any pain and stays happy through this tough time. I think cancer should get cancer and die instead of killing innocent people!

The day didn't go as planned. Stella is sick so we stayed home. I will go visit all my grandfathers later this week when she is better. I can't risk getting them sick. I did however spend the day with my baby Daddy! He got some homemade gifts from the kids and I gave he and his grandfather a "Guy's Gambling Getaway" in Biloxi next weekend! His grandfather is terminally ill with pancreatic cancer and I want the two of them to spend some quality time together, so off to The Hard Rock they go next weekend...just the two of them! I gave Pa strict instructions that they were gambling only, not looking for new wives!

Yesterday morning ran the Purple Stride 5K to fight pancreatic cancer. Lots of runners and walkers, a real sea of purple. Made it even more enjoyable to run the race. And to top it off, I came in second in my age group and got a medal! One benefit to having had one of those significant birthdays this year. My pace got me past being like a herd of turtles and more like stampeding turtles.

Please just take a second to do this and get a reminder to call in on National Call In day in honor of anyone you've known who has been touched by Pancreatic Cancer. We need to get loud - like breast cancer and AIDS to get the desperately needed funds to start defeating this horrible disease. I, personally, know at least three people who have been taken by pancreatic cancer.

Two daughters. Two brothers. Hundreds of family members, friends, fellow hunters, teammates, and students. An entire Midwestern town. We are the people who’ve been lucky enough to know Rick Carone, be touched by Rick Carone, and be loved by Rick Carone. We make up Team Carone, Rick’s support...

Guyabano, The Soupsop Fruit The Sour Sop or the fruit from the graviola tree is a miraculous natural cancer cell killer 10,000 times stronger than Chemo. Why are we not aware of this? Its because some big corporation want to make back their money spent on years of research by trying to make a synthetic version of it for sale. So, since you know it now you can help a friend in need by letting him know or just drink some sour sop juice yourself as prevention from time to time. The taste is not bad after all. It’s completely natural and definitely has no side effects. If you have the space, plant one in your garden. The other parts of the tree are also useful. The next time you have a fruit juice, ask for a sour sop. How many people died in vain while this billion-dollar drug maker concealed the secret of the miraculous Graviola tree? Th is tree is low and is called graviola in Brazil , guanabana in Spanish and has the uninspiring name "soursop" in English. The fruit is very large and the subacid sweet whi ...

The human mom of these two dogs (Laura Childs) is desperately looking for homes for them because she is dying of pancreatic cancer & can no longer care for them. One of them has Addison's Disease (easy to care for & we will help with cost of meds). We'd love for them to stay together, but would consider separating them if necessary. They are in Texas but we can get them anywhere. Please share. I've not met these guys but I've heard that they are absolutely wonderful dogs & they are the loves of Laura's life.

Hey FB book family & friends please keep my Dad in your prayers cuz I just found out he may have Pancreatic cancer/Colon cancer however he is doing more test to confirm. He has been in the hospital twice these past two weeks and down to 147lbs now which I weigh more than my dad now. God give me strength cuz I really don't know how I can handle the load of having a second parent go through cancer treatments again. God Bless my Dad please...

It's been 20 years since my daddy left us and went to Heaven. I was blessed with 27 years with my daddy. I miss his face, his voice, his laugh, his encouragement, his piano playing, his choir directing, his Sunday school teaching, his taking my picture when i didn't want him to, his all. We butted heads at times, but in the end we loved each other and I know he was always looking out for my best interest. Happy Father's Day, Daddy!

well I lost my father Jerry Burson today after a long battle with pancreatic cancer now he is in heaven walking with Jesus !! so happy about that...I am very happy that over the past 2 years I was able to start a relationship with him after not having him in my life for 40 years, Jesus gave me the courage and strength to forgive and live in the moment I am so thankful for the opportunity given to me by the Lord.. turns out my Dad had a huge heart and was an amazing person...RIP...

My dad left us when I was 12. I saw him when I was 18 for one weekend. He was at my wedding when I was 22. He came back into my life when I was 29. He got to meet my kids. He stayed in our lives for 8 months. He died 4 days after being told he had 6 months to live (pancreatic cancer). Sometimes life just isn't fair. My dad wouldn't have won any Father of the Year awards but he was my dad. And I loved him. And I miss him. I miss what could have been. Happy Father's Day, dad; we both deserved more.

Top 10 Most Unhealthy Cancer Causing Foods 1) Genetically-modified organisms (GMOs). It goes without saying that GMOs have no legitimate place in any cancer-free diet, especially now that both GMOs and the chemicals used to grow them have been shown to cause rapid tumor growth. But GMOs are everywhere, including in most food derivatives made from conventional corn, soybeans, and canola. However, you can avoid them by sticking with certified organic, certified non-GMO verified, and locally-grown foods that are produced naturally without biotechnology (Processed meats. Most processed meat products, including lunch meats, bacon, sausage, and hot dogs, contain chemical preservatives that make them appear fresh and appealing, but that can also cause cancer. Both sodium nitrite and sodium nitrate have been linked to significantly increasing the risk of colon and other forms of cancer, so be sure to choose only uncured meat products made without nitrates, and preferably from grass-fed sources (Microwave popcorn. ...

Happy Father's Day--to excited new ones; wise, practiced ones; departed ones, the ones who tried and never quite figured it out, the ones who seem to walk on air, grieving ones, strong ones, weak ones.you're all important to someone. And a special Happy Father's Day to my father-in-law, Patrick Gallaher, who is bravely fighting pancreatic cancer and preparing to leave us soon.what an amazing model of fatherhood you are!

Okay.here's a little story. I had to say goodbye to my Father in 1999. He had pancreatic cancer so it was going to happen VERY SOON. I flew up to Portland and spent a little less than a week with him and the family. We caught up on life, movies, music.everything. I actually told him that if he saw a bright light.just go into it and do not look back. Those were my last words as I left back to California. Father was cremated and put into a magnificent urn that he picked out himself ( Wolves and a moon ). Well.he ended up in my sister's garage for about a year in a cardboard box called "DAD". I kid you not. It was because of us siblings trying to make a date for his memorial. A year later we did. My Sister, Brother and I made it to the Oregon coast as he had wished. There was a perfect cliff that we went to. Both my siblings grabbed my shirt to make sure that I would not fall off of it as I opened up the urn. "OH MY GOD! Dad's in a plastic bag!" I just figured that you open it up and it's . ...

It is with great sadness to share that Jeff Teter passed away today. As many of you know, he was my former brother-in-law but is always family. He is Janelle's uncle. He went to the hospital Friday, diagnosed with primary pancreatic cancer and liver on Saturday, and entered into eternal rest today. He had only flu like symptoms and some bloating. May you rest in peace Jeff. I know you are rejoicing in heaven with Alice (1st wife), Brian, and Ryan--while we are stricken with grief here on earth. He leaves behind his wife Ginny and son Todd. Ease keep the entire Teter family in your thoughts and prayers.

Thanks so much to all my family and friends who have text and emailed me today (and even yesterday, Megan! :) ). It's been a bittersweet day, while celebrating what a wonderful father my husband has been to my 2 children I am missing my Daddy terribly!! I have certainly found out who my true friends are with all the loving thoughts and encouraging words! I love you all and it has helped so much to know you have been thinking about me this weekend and loving me back!!

I had a great dad. It was only for 23 years, but he taught me to value family, education, and life itself. He fought to stay with us and survived longer with his pancreatic cancer than most who are diagnosed at such an advanced stage. He continued working at the job he loved until he was no longer able to walk. He was ambitious, loving, funny, and athletic. He overcome great physical adversity as a child, and was left with a disability, but he never let it keep him from achieving his goals. At every one of our noisy, happy family gatherings, I picture him at the end of the table in the Daddy chair. Oh, and did I forget to mention that he was the most handsome Daddy on earth? My girlfriends loved his cool sideburns.

I hate to reuse, even if it is my own material. Still, probably the best way to commemorate. Written In March 2010. Happy Father's Day. My mother came to me a few days ago and asked me if I would write and deliver my father’s eulogy if he passed before I left town. It was not something to which I had given much thought, but once she mentioned it, it was almost all I could think about. I would almost characterize my thinking as agonizing. How do you distill a person’s entire life into a pithy speech that accurately conveys your emotions and properly memorializes the person who has passed? No one wants to hear the boilerplate rehashing of all his good deeds and the good times you shared. Even if you could recall each and every one of those things, how could you get all of that out without putting everyone to sleep? So there I sat one night, my father a few feet from me as I stared at a blank Word document trying to figure out how to give back to a man who had given everything for me. Near tears from my ...

wth, now my dad has got the same intestinal infection that took RJ almost 2 years to get rid of, c-diff. I hope since they caught it early enough that they can get rid of it without suffering like RJ did. That is one nasty super bug. The one thing that really worrys me is that he has diabetes pretty bad though, he's lost both legs & a finger & probably about to lose another finger. so that's why he gets over his c-diff so it don't kill him :(

Tuesday is not only the anniversary of my mom meeting Jesus, it is also Pancreatic cancer national call in, will you join me in asking your elected congress men/women to keep PC at the forefront and to not cut spending? it only takes a few seconds to sign up, you'll get an email with a script of what to say. really it won't take long and it is a cause that is near in dear to me. Thanks

It's amazing how the Lord allows a child to be born in order to take our focus off losing a loved one. On June 13, 2003 my niece, Olivia Nevaeh Ambrose was born. She didn't know that her birth was preparing us for the death of my father, Curtis B. Ford, Sr. My father held Olivia briefly in his arms before he died. Exactly 17 day later, June 30, 2003, the Lord called my father home due to his battle with pancreatic cancer. Always remember that birth prepares you for death. So parents, don't take it for granted when your child is born because that child is here for a PURPOSE. David Ambrose, thanks for you little angel. She has always been special in my heart. R.I.P. Curtis Sr.

Political Word of the Day: Farley file - A Farley file is a log kept by politicians on people they have met previously. It’s named for James Aloysius Farley, who was Franklin Roosevelt’s campaign manager and later became chairman of the Democratic National Committee. Farley kept a file on anyone Roosevelt met allowing him to “remember” key personal details such as the name of their spouse and children or anything useful which might have come out of earlier meetings. Farley files are now commonly kept by politicians.

I sometimes forget this is a special day for people. Having lost my dad to cancer at age 18 and not having any kids of my own it is easy to forget how special it is. I'm sorry to anyone I may have intrusive to and tried to steal your day.

There is a special place in my heart for everyone who has lost their dads today, and a even more special one those those who lost him to pancreatic cancer. My wish is that the good memories bring you peace and comfort today and every day.

My father died from pancreatic cancer and his liver was also compromised. I grew up in a health oriented family and when my dad past I went on a quest to find out what happen. It's been an 11 year journey and my travels had me study the body than the mind and than emotions, I found how very linked they are. I am now finding out how to cleanse the liver which is the foundation of ones health, and the roles the gallbladder and pancreas also play. My holistic program is in it's final stages and the only thoughts I have is that I know my dad would be proud and it is through his inspiration and Gods guidance I am where I am at today. Thank you both and to all my friends and other family members who have been there for me along the way.

The Opera Project mourns the passing of co-founder Deborah Maher. Our prayers today are for her beloved son Seth and her grandson as Deborah left this world last night after a 5 year battle with pancreatic cancer. She will be remembered by many as a voice teacher, opera singer, artist and friend. Requiem aeternam, Deborah!

Father's Day is rather bittersweet this year...3 yrs ago my Dad was dying from pancreatic cancer. My siblings and I went to GA to celebrate is birthday. He did his best to perservere through the pain and discomfort...he was known for saying "it's not about me"! In 2010, his birthday fell on Father's Day. I stopped by before I got on the road to head back home...he was weak but smiled with me anyway. I'd NEVER seen my Dad in need and I didn't know what to do to comfort him. About week later, he was gone. There were so many conversations we never got to have; I always figured that I had time. There aren't too many days that pass that I don't wish I could pick up the phone and hear his voice. The role of being a Father can be a thankless job...you just go about the day doing what is needed to make sure that the family is cared for and protected. A real Father doesn't need or want a parade...because "it's not about me"! So, here's a salute to all the Fathers that go about doing the *** thing!!! Take this day ...

Health Benefits of Ganoderma Lucidum Ganoderma has been known for centuries for alkalizing and oxygenating the body to establish the foundation for a lifetime of good health, removing the basis for osteoporosis, arthritis, adult-onset diabetes, heart disease, and many other degenerative conditions including cancer. No disease can survive in a super oxygenated environment. When your body has sufficient oxygen, it thrives. Ganoderma is a super herb which rapidly oxygenates your body and automatically adjusts your PH to a healthy balance at the cellular level. Weight Loss: Oxygen is a necessary component for burning fuel. The more you oxygenate the body, the higher your metabolism. That means weight loss. Ganoderma is backed up with evidenced based documented research in reducing cholesterol levels and easing allergy-related inflammation of the airway. Often used as an immune stimulant by people with cancer (as well as HIV), Ganoderma has been shown to strengthen immunity as well as combat cancer-cell prolif ...

"My father has been fighting stage 4 pancreatic cancer...The only treatment he has received is one spot treatment of radiation. His doctor said the next step would be chemo and he has absolutely refused chemo because of the extreme danger. I am attempting to get the resources together to begin his cannabis oil treatment. I just wanted to know if you have heard positive news from any other pancreatic cancer patients that have begun this natural miracle. Any information would be great. And we have already ordered the e-book as well!" Anna Harley -- Anna, it seems like the medical system is waking up. Look at this: "Altogether, these alterations of pancreatic cancer cell metabolism mediated by cannabinoids result in a strong induction of autophagy and in the inhibition of cell growth." got the e-book, you know what to do, all info you need to know about the treatment is right there.

Is it the usual? Is it that time of the year again where we desire fathers to have a happy day? I desire my father to have a continuous, everyday happy days. One day of commercialism is not the only day that will have me saying "Happy FathersDay". But that's just I. My father was not feeling good at 3 am. I had to be vigilant for his well-being. Therefore, I praise the Creator that today I have him with me. I do want to extended a blessed greeting to the mothers who also are taking the role of a father. May this day be a lovely day for you, as well as everyday after this one. )~;@

My fat orange tabby, Chester, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer this morning. We made the hard decision to put him to sleep. I have has him for 9 years, since he was orphaned at 3 weeks old. He supervised my dissertation and was so very attached to me. I will miss him always.

For Fathers' Day I wish to salute my late Uncle Peter Falotico, shown here with his son my cousin Peter. Uncle Peter was Best Man at my father's wedding. He worked as an antique appraiser in Brooklyn until his death from pancreatic cancer in 1969. I have just recently learned that when he was a Seabee working on construction crews in the Philippines during World War II he was captured by the enemy and came down with serious diseases before returning to New York. Apparently he never talked about it. His son Peter was born three years after the war. We wish him the best of everything and keep him in our prayers.

The 2 most important people in my life. Happy Fathers Day to my Dad. The person who has been the "rock" during the storm and the "sunshine" after. I am soo lucky you are my Dad and the "Pop" for my kids. Happy Father's Day.

It is with deep sadness that we share this message from a dear friend of Utah Friends of Basset Hounds. We hope that the wonderful Basset Hounds they have adopted will bring them comfort. "Last night at 8PM my beloved wife, Cheryl lost her 10 month battle with pancreatic cancer. Those of you that know her know also why she never said said anything about it on here. She never wanted to draw attention to herself, always content to work from the background. happiest when she could make people happy with out any recognition for herself. Cheryl, I am humbled and honored that you let me share your journey. With you, I have found depths of myself I didn't even know were possible. I know the reunion at the Rainbow Bridge was fantastic, and to feel the embrace of your mothers arms once again was something you longed for. Know that I will always love you and you will forever live in my heart. I love you, Barney"

My father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer about ten years ago. It was found in his lungs and that gave him a year to live. The doc said they could give him ten years if he underwent chemo and such. Dad said he'd take the ten years between 20 yo and 30 yo. He knew the doc's meant 10 MORE years dying in a hospital bed, so he treated the symptoms instead of the illness, and made it long enough to meet his only grandchild. He needed help to get to the restroom one morning, and checked himself into hospice that day. He died three days later. I still love and respect him, and wish a Happy Father's Day to all who ARE fathers, and all who HAVE fathers they love, whether they are on this planet with us or not!

Apparantly I did not escape the wind storm unscathed. My neighbor lost 5 big oaks starting a chain reaction which ended up in an oak of my own. It is now leaning precariously over my roof. Now is when the insurance will tell me that they don't cover wind damage if the wind is out of the north, (Or any other direction).

Happy Father's Day dad. I miss you still and wish I could take you golfing as we had done in the past. Kids and I are going to a splash park today.it is right up your alley. Everyone enjoy the time you have not just today, but everyday. Btw, I am pretty sure registration has already begun for the Pancreatic Cancer 5k in November.more details to come. This will be our third year and I hope by now we can have more people walk with us. I don't want excuses!

Happy Father's Day to all the proud dads out there. I'd like to wish a special one to both my father, who has seemingly defeated pancreatic cancer, and to my father-in-law, who I was never able to meet. He was an extremely selfless man of God, and I am trying my hardest to earn his approval here on earth, in taking care of and loving his daughter, Cristina. I know I will never be the man he was, but I only hope to one day earn the right to right to walk with him in the kingdom of Heaven. Also, a special Father's Day to any of those proud fathers who have lost their sons or daughters to many of the atrocities in this violent and cruel world. Your children are looking down fondly on you always. Perhaps one day, I may be blessed and too become a father. I've always said no to a little girl, but seeing all these pictures kind of makes me want a little princess of my own. Any way, Happy Father's Day!

The active ingredient, curcumin is how turmeric achieves these amazing results. In fact, recent studies by the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center showed that curcumin was more effective at reducing inflammation and fighting cancer (including pancreatic and breast cancer) than anything else studied. The study research professor, Bharat Aggarwal, Ph.D. says: “No cancer has been found, to my knowledge, which is not affected by curcumin. The reason curcumin is so effective against cancer is that it hits not just a single target or cell signaling pathway but dozens of targets implicated in cancer.” There truly is no spice being studied currently that offers more promise than turmeric!

Happy Father's Day to my stepfather Buddy Rogers who passed in Dec from pancreatic cancer. How in the world will I ever remember to renew my tag, sticker, and drivers license now? Who will check my " tars"? I'd say..."dont you mean TIRES?" And he'd say " yeah, thats what I said tars". You would've already been here on my land cleaning it up with your tractor. You wouldve seen your grandkids get older. You would see Braves get into everything. We miss you. And I know mama does still everyday. We love you. Happy Father's Day.

I met with a lovely nutritional therapist on Friday to discuss my IBS & GORD symptoms. She was incredibly helpful and I'm going to have done tests done to check for inflammation, immune function, yeast, parasites, bacteria, pathogens, pharmaceutical and botanical sensitivities, cancer-preventative short chain fatty acids, pancreatic function and markers for digestion and absorption. Very excited to finally find a specialist who should find some answers so I can then make the dietary changes necessary to feel well again! :)

Very sad this morning for my dear friend Lucy, who lost her son, Gary on the 9th. This poor woman only has one child left now, and he lives out of state. There is nothing sadder than this. Pray for her please, and after that pray for me as I am going to drive over to spend some time with her. Ah, Lord, what a tough burden for her. In less than five years to have lost two children!

shocking and eye-opening facts about smoking: There are over 1.22 billion smokers in the world which means about 16.5% the whole world population is addictive to smoking. Sugar is one of the major components added in a cigarette; therefore for diabetic patients it is more dangerous and harmful than any other person. Heart attack, pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, mouth cancer, strokes, high blood pressure and many other diseases are gifted by smoking or chewing tobacco. There is enough amount of nicotine in 5 cigarettes to kill a human if it is chewed. Smoking is not only harmful to smoker but to a second-hand smoker too as the smoke itself has more than 50 chemicals that causes cancer. A second-hand smoker can be your child, wife, brother or friend. Many people says, only cigarette is the one which can cause damage to human body in different ways, but the fact is that pipe, waterpipe, cigars, hand-made roller are also harmful. Chewing Tobacco is another form of taking tobacco and is a major cause of mouth ...

If you think your card, thought, hug, or time together does not matter ... this is a card I got on Father's Day about 16 years ago today ... it still sits on my desk in my office ... I am thankful to have the three best daughters in the world!

I lost my father 17 years ago to pancreatic cancer, he was only 60 years old. When he passed, I didnt only lose my father, I lost my best friend. He always believed in me, even during active addiction. It was him who instilled compassion, love,treat others as you would want to be treated, and so much more. I miss him so very much. I am so, so gratful he was able to see me get clean, get married and have children, that in itself was priceless. I still hear his words of widom even still today. Happy Fathers Day Daddy I love you. :) And Happy Fathers Day to all the awsome dads I have met through the years. Have a blessed day/ :)

Cancer is a group of diseases that can cause almost any sign or symptom. The signs and symptoms will depend on where the cancer is, how big it is, and how much it affects the organs or tissues. If a cancer has spread (metastasized), signs or symptoms may appear in different parts of the body. As a cancer grows, it can begin to push on nearby organs, blood vessels, and nerves. This pressure causes some of the signs and symptoms of cancer. If the cancer is in a critical area, such as certain parts of the brain, even the smallest tumor can cause symptoms. But sometimes cancer starts in places where it will not cause any signs or symptoms until it has grown quite large. Cancers of the pancreas, for example, usually do not cause symptoms until they grow large enough to press on nearby nerves or organs (this causes back or belly pain). Others may grow around the bile duct and block the flow of bile. This causes the eyes and skin to look yellow (jaundice). By the time a pancreatic cancer causes signs or symptoms ...

Celebrating all Father's with us today, and those with us in our hearts-- A Father Is… There in every memory -- See his love and care Strength and hands to count on -- Freely he does share Provider, toil so faithfully -- To make our dreams come true Give strong and tender discipline -- Though it is hard to do A Father is God’s chosen one -- To lead the family And point it to His will for life Of love and harmony… By Sue Skeen

Sugar is the Primary Fuel for Most Cancers Controlling your blood-glucose leptin and insulin levels through diet, exercise and emotional stress relief can be one of the most crucial components to a cancer recovery program. These factors are also crucial in order to prevent cancer in the first place.In 1931 the Nobel Prize was awarded to German researcher Dr. Otto Warburg, who discovered that cancer cells have a fundamentally different energy metabolism compared to healthy cells, and that malignant tumors tend to feed on sugar. More recently, researchers discovered that while cancer cells feed on both glucose and fructose, pancreatic tumor cells use fructose specifically.

The American Diabetes Association (ADA) is calling for all pharmaceutical companies involved in the development or marketing of incretin-based diabetes drugs to make patient-level data on their products available for an independent review that could help settle the question of whether such therapies contribute to the development of pancreatitis or pancreatic cancer. The move comes as BMJ published an in-depth investigation of this issue yesterday and a UK Channel 4 documentary on the topic aired last night. Incretin therapy refers to medications such as the glucagonlike peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists and dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP-4) inhibitors, which are used in type 2 diabetes, either alone or in conjunction with other medications such as metformin or insulin. "Recent publications have intensified the controversy surrounding the potential role of incretin therapy in the development of pancreatitis and pancreatic neoplasia in people with type 2 diabetes," the ADA observes. "People who are taking these medicat ...

Lost my father when he was 44 years old, lost my youngest brother at 20 years old, lost my oldest brother at 40 years old, lost my second oldest brother at 49 years old, my 48 year old brother has stage 4 pancreatic and liver cancer. Lost my mom and brother in 2011 just a few months apart and buried them together. Not comparing to anyones loses but just want all to know. Life can always get worse and I praise the lord for what I do have and not for what I have lost. Faith is huge during times like these and I always want to praise God for my blessings. I have a family in Heaven and some day soon I will get to be with them. To all that read this, appreciate the ones that you love, even if you feel that they are not doing what you want them to do. Encourage them in their goals and they will respect you when they look back in their lives.

Thanks to Jane Aylor for organizing this effort and putting the team together.

Please pray for my wonderful grandmother who is in the hospital not doing well, she is 93, her name is Rosemary, her liver is failing and she may have pancreatic cancer, thank you from the bottom of my breaking heart!

WOOHOO!!! Team Steve Brady did it: we completed the 5K race in DC to contribute to raising funds to fight pancreatic cancer: we raised $350 (which, considering we formed out team 4 days ago, isn't a bad result! :)) It was THE most beautiful day in DC - officially.

Tried to call my mom and let her know about the cancer but she never picked up. How do you even tell your mother that you have pancreatic cancer?? I'm sure I'll think of someway but until I can figure out how to tell her, I'll just wait on calling her. :`(

A few ramblings to finish my week. A classmate informed me that he has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and started chemo this week. The chemo may take a while before positive results occurr. Another friend was testing new ways to get off a ladder, analyze strength of tree branches and their effect as an anti-gravity force while eventually landing feet first on the ground. Presently both are fine. While none of us will get out of this world alive, none of should be in a rush, let God move at His pace. Rachel was on KASM radio this afternoon plugging Texas Roadhouse. She did a fine job, probably because she had practice trying to influence dad to see things her way often. She even wished me Happy Fathers Day on the air waves.While life has a few speed bumps it is definitley GOOD.

Summary of Otha’s condition: From CT scan & MRI - found thrombosis (clot) in portal vein leading from Liver. Also, saw mass on pancreas, Have twice tried to biopsy cyst on pancreas with unclear results. No malignant tissue has yet to be found in anything. MRI & CAT scans reveal nothing new. I have developed kidney failure and am being dialyzed regularly which will likely be a permanent condition, requiring three sessions of dialysis per week. I am also suffering from a liver failure that is non-cirrhotic, the liver function has become stable over the last few days. I believe we have reached a stage where I need to regain strength and stability, so that the pancreatic lesion can be removed and studied, to determine, with some certainty whether there is a cancer or not. I would expect to return home for a period of time for R&R, then return to OSU for further evaluation.

If anyone has info on this the topic is open for discussion and medically backed info is appreciated. Nature's Cancer Prevention - Vitamin B17 Have you ever heard of vitamin B17? Maybe you have heard of its other name - Laetrile. Americans cannot access vitamin B17 because the FDA took it off the market in the 1970s, and removed it from the B-Complex vitamins. It is unlawful for any health practitioner to administer this vitamin to patients. Apricot seeds are the best source for B17, but they have also been removed from the shelves of every health food store and natural market throughout the USA. Limited research has been conducted on vitamin B17 since 1977. Once it was banned, it was forgotten. According to research from years ago, provided by nutritionists and medical scientists, vitamin B17 is a natural cyanide-containing compound that gives up its cyanide content only in the presence of a particular enzyme group called beta glucosidase or glucuronidase. Miraculously, this enzyme group is found almost ...

Reflecting this morning on life's miracles. It can be as small as my neighbor returning my missing keys he found on the street by his house, intact and not even a smashed remote. to my niece's little boy receiving a heart transplant yesterday after almost 90 days in Primary Children's waiting. to this morning my dear friend undergoing another biopsy and possible surgery to determine what she really has and treatment to get after being given a horrible life-ending diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. One day we will understand the reason for trials and adversity and miracles that are given to us in this life.

Fourteen months ago, my brother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Eleven months ago, he had surgery to remove the tumor and then had a second round of chemo. He told me last night that the results of his third scan showed no sign of cancer -- he remains a pancreatic cancer survivor. Thank you to everyone for all of your prayers and positive thoughts!

Very busy day today around the district and at City Hall. I am looking forward to honoring the life of Karen Barone later this afternoon at a street renaming ceremony. From her time at P.S. 204 to her tireless work raising awareness and funds for pancreatic cancer research, Karen Barone dedicated her life to her community. I hope you'll join me today at 3:30 PM at the corner of 82nd Street and 15th Avenue to honor this extraordinary woman.

It's weird when the news that your brother-in-law is having a 5 - 7 hour surgery is good news but in this case understandable. My sister's husband, Sam Musick, has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer - once a heart chilling diagnosis but this time the news is tempered by the fact that he is eligible for Whipple surgery which will allow the removal of the tumor and some re-plumbing. Not so many years ago this would not have been possible but early detection and innovative surgical techniques are making this disease treatable. Thank you science

exert from The Blood Type Diet: Latest Diet Scam by Deirdre B. Williams, N.D. John J. McMahon, N.D. We are naturopathic physicians. We are also vegan as are our children. Peter D'Adamo, N.D. has recently published a popular book in which he encourages a diet based on his interpretation of the ABO blood groups and health. This blood type diet theory encourages daily consumption of animal flesh by people of blood type O and blood type B. Together these two blood types make up between 56% and 69% of population of the United States Schools of naturopathic medicine have begun to include this theory in their curriculum and our colleagues often recommend a diet including daily consumption of animal flesh to vegan/vegetarian patients of blood type O or B.

Hi everyone I hope that you are having a good Wednesday. I get to spend time with grandma and aunt today plus parents so good day. I know I have preached it before family and friends are so important and when you are sick too those times spent and kind words mean more than anything. I'm trying to learn patience and rest, but its hard/ I know resting is important and the rad said this week and last will be adjustment. So prayers for learning to rest because I don't like that but you do what you need to do. Well im going to close but not before a verse, which is a favorite Psalm 23: 4, " Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I still fear no evil, for you are with me."

Hello friends. Today is June 12, 2013. “I am not afraid of tomorrow, for I have seen yesterday and I love today.” ~William White Brett and I arrived at my chem-lab appointment at University of Chicago with plenty of time to spare.. It is amazing how our trips seem to get easier with each round – we got this down pat! My lab work came back very good, which is nice to hear. It means my body tolerated the first round of chemo well. My goal this week is to gain back the 4 pounds I lost last week during treatment. Wow – I never thought I would hear myself say that – gotta gain weight!! It’s kind of nice to say, “Pass the pasta!” I wish to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your outpouring of support in launching my Purple Passion pancreatic cancer awareness campaign. By sharing my post, we reached so many people that were unaware of this type of cancer. Your countless expressions of encouragement, caring and love will stay with me forever.. I am eternally grateful. The “Fight for N ...

The small persistent pains or aches that plague you and you either ignore them or throw pain,over-the-counter,pills at them. These sometimes,graduate in alarms that even God tried to alert you. My friend had stomach pains and kept taking Actal tums and Relcer. A few months ago,in a city restaurant in town,he felt a sharp pain while having lunch with some friends. He went to the washrooms. Half an hour later,one of his friends got worried and went to check. He found him on the floor,unconscious,in bloody vomit. Hospital discovered a tumour after an MRI and a biopsy revealed pancreatic cancer that had spread to the stomach,lungs,liver. Stage 4. No procedure or prayer would save him. 4 months and he shrunk and died painfully. Pain is your body's way of saying something's wrong. Get screened early or you may end up 'THE LATE'

The Bakersfield Californian News Article, Wednesday, Jun 05 2013 10:33 PM Proposed ban on marijuana dispensaries draws passionate crowd BY THEO DOUGLAS Californian Staff writer tdouglas The Bakersfield City Council heard heartfelt testimony from proponents of medical marijuana following the first reading at its Wednesday meeting of a proposed ordinance banning medical marijuana dispensaries. "This is really a continuation of some historic direction by the council," said Bakersfield City Attorney Ginny Gennaro. "In the clearest and simplest form, you are simply taking your resolution from 2004 and codifying it into an ordinance. It will give you, it will give us, the city attorney, your police department, an additional enforcement tool that has been endorsed by the California Supreme Court. It will not, and I repeat, it will not, as I have repeatedly said, allow the police department to knock down doors, close businesses and arrest people in a unilateral fashion," Gennaro continued, noting that the city's ...

I need to also remind my friends and Lisa. my mom has pancreatic cancer, the doctor gave us very little hope. Her cancer is shrinking and she is fighting her way through this with God! God is no respect of persons, if He will do it for my sister and my mom, He will do it for LISA LEE!

Thank you to all who have kept my mother-n-law in their prayers while she is fighting pancreatic cancer. It has been 9 months, and I have super news. She had an MRI and CT scan done yesterday. The radiologist called, and the tumor is getting harder and harder to see. All other organs look good, with no spread of the cancer. We are so blessed.

Well I hate to Post bad News but the update on my Mom is not the best of News. Looks like Cancer from the Pancreas that may have spread will know from the biopsy results tomorrow. Please continue to keep her in your Prayers. Thanks for all your support.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers in the United States with a five-year survival rate of just six percent. Currently, it is the fourth leading cause of cancer death in the United States, and is anticipated to become the second by 2020.

This is Ed's daughter Tiffany. I will be managing this page for him for the time being. He was unable to log into his original profile, so I decided to create a new one for him. Some of you may be unaware of what he is currently dealing with. Two months ago my dad was diagnosed with end stage pancreatic cancer. Since his diagnosis his health has started to decline rapidly. He is currently living with me and is on hospice. It appears that he only has several weeks to live. I wanted to take the time to ask anyone who is interested to share stories, photos or to send private messages. I will do my best to make sure that everything is read and shown to him. My hope is that somehow it will provide comfort for him, during this time. Thanks everyone :)

It's been a difficult day... My family found out that my grandmother has stage 3 terminal pancreatic cancer. The prognosis is 1-1/2 years with pain management. They can't do anything else for her so we are just praying.

Dr Douglas Evans, Chairman of the Department of Surgery recently presented several oral presentations for the Royal Melbourne Hospital as part of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons. His talks included “Personalized Medicine Approach for Pancreas Cancer: the Medical College of Wisconsin Experience” as well as a talk on Papillary Thyroid Cancer and techniques in pancreatic surgery for cancer.

My uncle died of Pancreatic Cancer last November. My other uncle is now trying to get donation to help fund research as Pancreatic Cancer usually kills within the first 5 years. It has a 6% survival rate, one of the lowest for any of the cancers. And if they somehow survive the cancer they don't always survive the treatment. I'd appreciate it for anyone that could put in a few dollars or spread the word.

Found out this evening that one of my cousins on my "real dad's" side of the family passed away last night at the age of 58 from pancreatic cancer. Even though we have not spoken in about a year, she was there for me through many terrible times in my life and always filled my head with kind words a gentle hand. She picked me up when I was down when I needed her most in my life. When I felt like nobody understood me, she did. Feeling guilty for not keeping in touch recently. Valerie Brigode Clayton will be forever remembered and missed by many...

Tonight FLF wants to express its deepest gratitude for the life and ministry of Dr. Steve Strauss, who went to be with his Lord today losing the battle of pancreatic cancer. Chair of Missions at Dallas Theological Seminary, Steve and Marcia worked tirelessly through SIM for many years especially in war-torn Ethiopia. Their passion was leadership development nd it was in Ethiopia where he helped establish three theological schools. This incredible man's life begs us to stay the course with what God has called us all to do until we arrive at Home. Thank you, Steve, for your modeling.

4 years ago today I brought 48 yr old brother Dave home from the hospital for the last time in his fight against Pancreatic Cancer. I remember like it was yesterday, a Thursday...got to stop by and see the new pirate dock Joel had built after major flood & enjoy the peaceful lake and fish for a while, then called everyone to come in for the weekend and we had the party of all parties for 3 days straight. Dave was surrounded with love and with all the things he loved when he went home forever... *he didn't miss the dance *

4-month art show opportunity for Central Florida artists, sculptures and photographers! Looking for pieces to go in an upcoming gallery show that will pay homage to pancreatic cancer and PanCAN. I'm still waiting on some specific details... but here's the scoop: - the show will run from July 1st - October 31st. - pieces can be small or as large as 5 ft x 5 ft. - pieces do not need to be cancer themed (but that would certainly be ideal!) - pieces can be for sale (ideally) or not. A % of each sale can go towards PanCAN, but each artist can decide what they are comfortable with. The gallery will handle all sales and pay-outs. Sold items will remain on display until the show ends. One final check will be made to PanCAN for any sales made during the 4 months. - items will go on display July 1st. The gallery would love to have items dropped off on June 21st (or that week). I'll be posting additional information tomorrow... in the meantime if you are interested... or know someone that might be... email me at chr ...

Just read an obit for Father Gabriel O'Reilly from St David's in Davie, FL. He was an amazing priest & an amazing man. He married my mom to my husband's dad in 1984!

A mother should never have to watch her child die. please pray for my mom and brother. Thank you.

What made Richard Dawson a great Family Feud host was that he: 1) Was quietly funny and clever, only raising his voice when he called out key phrases like "survey says!" and such. 2) Knew how to make the CONTESTANTS funny and did it well. Steve Harvey is exactly the opposite. He's yelling and making stupid faces through the entire show, and he doesn't let the contestants be funny. He always needs to top what they said. What an *** Horrible host.

Early this morning one of my DTS colleagues, Steve Strauss, was graduated into the presence of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, after a courageous bout with pancreatic cancer. His perpetual Spirit-filled cheerful smile as well as his passion for Missions will be sorely missed.

It is with a sad heart that I send this news my sister Carman passed away this morning She has been fighting Pancreatic cancer and had lived much longer than Drs. expected.

Cancer Colors and Meanings Our society has definitely been pink-washed by October and Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so much so that people without cancer often mistake the pink ribbon for all cancers, because that is all they see. However, each cancer has its own color ribbon and many have their own awareness month. Here is a list of awareness months, cancer colors and meanings: January: Cervical Cancer Awareness Month is represented by a teal-and-white ribbon. February: is National Cancer Prevention Month. A lavender ribbon represents all cancers. March: represents colorectal and kidney cancers. Colon cancer is represented by a dark blue ribbon, and kidney cancer is an orange ribbon. April: brings awareness to head and neck cancers, testicular cancer, and esophageal cancer. A burgundy-and-ivory ribbon represents head and neck cancers. Testicular cancer is an orchid-colored ribbon, and esophageal cancer is represented with a periwinkle ribbon. May: the grey ribbon represents brain cancer, and a black rib ...

For Cliff, for Beth, for Matt, for Shane, for Sylvia, for all others who are fighting or have fought this battle - if you ever thought, said, or prayed "if there was just something I could do to stop cancer..." this is your chance to help end it. Next Sunday - yep, Father's Day. : ( - I will be flying to Washington D.C. as an advocate for cancer research funding with the Pancreatic Cancer Network. This year is a critical year for action - we are facing possible drastic cuts to cancer research funding across the board, for all cancers. This funding is what supports the grants that create the clinical trials so that researchers can find a way to stop cancer from developing when detected as well as find new chemo drugs to treat current diagnosis. Through cancer research, it was discovered that colon cancer drugs are sometimes successful in treating pancreatic cancer - one of the treatments that Beth Brown Mallett received for pancreatic cancer was the same drug regiment that Cliff was treated with for colon ...

Turmeric is a kitchen staple . . . In India and is found in just about every dish there. It is less common in the West and is often called the poor man’s saffron because of its deep yellow hue and because it is often added as a filler in saffron sold in the US. Turmeric is what gives mustard its distinctive yellow color. Because it is very mild in flavor, turmeric can be added to just about anything without really changing the flavor profile of the dish. So why is turmeric in almost every Indian dish? Do they know something we do not? Apparently they do…turmeric is one of the most powerful healing spices studied to date. It is rich with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that have been shown in an increasing number of studies to protect and heal virtually every organ in the body. Turmeric May Help Prevent or Treat: Acne Gas Allergies Gallbladder disease Alzheimer’s disease Gout Arthritis Gum Disease Asthma Heart Disease Blemishes High blood pressure Cancer Liver Disease Colitis Pain Cysti ...

All proceeds from this event are going to the Julie Wren Cancer unit for Children in Crumlin Hospital,Dublin. Esther Wren,who is a friend of mine decided to create a 'relaxation haven' in her daughter's memory for young chemotherapy patients in a busy hospital. She launched a trust in the name of her daughter Julie (8), who died in 1993 after undergoing extensive treatment at Our Lady's Children's Hospital, Crumlin, Dublin. Mrs Wren, who lost her husband Johnny to pancreatic cancer five years after the death of her only child, told how a vision of children out playing in a field had led her to fundraise for the specialised room. It is decorated with trees offering aromatherapy, reflexology and Indian head massage for the children suffering nausea from chemo sessions. "Julie was an inspiration. She lived life to the full," Mrs Wren, who had lived on their dairy farm in Athboy, Co Meath, said. "Johnny told me to sell the farm before he died as he said it would only be a burden to me. "It made over a millio ...

Medicinal uses Natural Lemongrass Lemongrass has been reported to have innumerable therapeutic and other health benefits. Widely used to alleviate certain respiratory conditions including laryngitis and sore throats, lemongrass has earned a reputation for its anti-pyretic property which reduces high fevers. Called fevergrass in some cultures the vapor is inhaled, leading to increased perspiration and eventually the complete removal of fever. Lemongrass has powerful pain relieving properties. It helps to alleviate muscle spasms by relaxing the muscles thereby leading to the reduction of pain-related symptoms. It is thus useful for all types of pain including abdominal pain, headaches, joint pains, muscle pains, digestive tract spasms, muscle cramps, stomachache and others. This remedy has also been linked to increasing the body’s ability to repair damaged connective tissue such as cartilage, ligaments and tendons and is thus recommended for these types of injuries. Another related benefit is for improvem ...

Hello friends. Today is June 11, 2013. “A bird doesn’t sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.” — Maya Angelou I am approaching one month since I learned of my pancreatic cancer diagnosis. It’s seems hard to believe, but time stands still for no one. Being that we as humans are inquisitive creatures, the one question that keeps being posed by myself as well as my friends and loved ones, is “Why?” Why did this happen to me? We like things to be put in perspective – as if life is an exact science. But the reality of this is that it’s not an exact science. We can only place a “man-made” explanation to events as they occur in our attempt to deal with them. The explanation manifests itself as “Purpose” and oftentimes you have to dig real deep to try to clarify what that purpose is. I have reached a purpose in my own mind as to why I have pancreatic cancer... My purpose is God’s purpose. And I believe that if I am to make sense of any of this, it is because G . ...

My mom is on a ventilator. She has CHF and Pneumonia. She went to Poteau first. Just for her feet. She left there with Kidney Failure,Heart Failure,Pneumonia And now is on a Ventilator fighting for her life. A few months ago my Dad went to Poteau hospital they said it was nothing and gave him medicine. He didn't get better. He went to South Carolina cause he still had a job. He had to work. He came home for Easter they said he had Gal stones and He went in for Gal surgery on May 7th He came out of Sugery with Stage four Pancreatic Cancer. I will NEVER take my kids or anyone to Poteau hospital. My dad is now in Fort Smith Mercy Hospital. He could not keep anything down so they fixed that for now. Once he gets his strength back Up.

Cancer... A sticky topic. However most people now days know at least one person close to them who have either A. Recovered it, or B. fighting for their next breath, or C. Have already passed away It is so hard to see someone go thru something that is more traumatic then some of us will every face in life, and most of them all have a smile on their face until they take that last breath. Cancer has hit two men in my life took one already, and at least 4 women. All of whom are more loving and caring then anyone else I could every imagine, I pray a simple prayer that asks for wellness, hope, courage, and most of all patience. To all of those I love. Mr. Bob you are a great fighter, an amazing husband to Judy Mclemore, dad, paw paw, and an encouragement to us all. Hold on strong and keep smiling. We all love you ! To everyone else if someone during can smile don't you think you should too
