Well I got a CT scan today and...
« on: Tue, 21 March 2017, 20:14:44 »
The scans are not looking too promising but the scans haven't showed everything. There's still a multitude of tumors and they have not grown but there's still 2 big tumors that mildly worry my doctors, and if are still active are life threatening. And must be removed w/surgery. My bone marrow is weak now and will not be able to handle much/anymore chemo. So if the tumors are still alive. Gameover for me. I get my PET scan on the 31'st. I'm thinking with my luck I'm probably toast. EDIT: BTW the tumors are in my lungs.

Bro.
I've been wondering what happened to that guy with the tumors but couldn't remember the username.

I know not everyone's a Christian, but I am and am praying for you, bud. I wish you good news on the 31.

You'll pull through. Just take it day by day, and if it's bad news on the 31st...then just cross that bridge when you get to it.

I'm hoping for a positive update. Either way, try to stay positive.

I friggin hate cancer.

Whatever you do, remember to eat! I know chemo makes you lose your appetite, but you don't want to fade away.
My dad died that way, and it hurt my soul.
I'm sorry you probably have been told this a million times already.
You probably also have heard about NSAID and Salanti also.

It's a Gacha game, kind of like pokemon , but you collect anime wifus instead of pokemons..

The battle system is slightly more complex,  but... not reaaallly, because currently the entire game is designed around human vs ai play,  where the ai makes obviously suboptimal moves.

But the most fun part is the slot machine aspect, where you earn orbs, and use the orbs to (summon) new heroes.. this is the wifu collecting part..

hey Cloud,

wazzuuuuuuup!

(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

Good luck with the test today - I hope you get some good news!
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Hey, robot legs are a thing already, maybe think of this as a chance to upgrade to cyborg!  Plus you won't have to worry about tumors in a metal leg!   :thumb:

Seriously though, hoping for the best for you.  Glad the lungs aren't active, and if the leg needs to go, you can take it and keep going.  Keep us updated, we'll be here to at least be a room full of people to vent to.

Awesome to hear that the lungs got the OK.  Bummer on the leg, but coming from the son of a Prosthetist, it is not that bad.  I know a lot of amputees and all of them once healed, pick up right where they were before. 

Do you know if it is going to be AK (above knee), or BK (below knee)?  The prosthetics available now are amazing.

I'm glad it's not life-threatening... I'm sorry about your leg though... If your lung tumours have not grown does that mean they will stay "dormant"?
