I am a svelte 168lbs.
However, it is certain all that dying really did wear me out.
I am glad people still read this thread.
That anybody was ever interested is beyond me.

Glad to hear the good news.

That is good news.

techguyYou look pretty damn good in that photo, not hitting on ya just saying. You don’t look sick.

dsmackTom, I can't express how happy I am for you!
Your staunch beliefs in the LORD, and your consistently positive outlook are every bit as important as the excellent medical help you have received from your Doctors. You are making this happen Sir, and I applaud you!
Looking forward to the next positive update!
I hope you and your family have a wonderful Independence Day celebration together...
Keeping positive thoughts and rooting for your continued success!
Don

I only wish that when my time comes, I’ll get to prepare myself and my family and friends to even a fraction of the measure you’ve been afforded,
and seemingly made the most of. There’s much to learn in this thread, sir. You’ve given us some essential bread crumbs to follow while you’ve walked a terrifying path, and I think it would be a small person indeed who couldn’t take a nibble and follow you for the conversation. I thank you for your candor and invitation to this conversation.

Tom, so glad to see you looking so good and happy.

But in my mind it was a tall proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace, a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity, and if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here." -- Ronald Reagan, Farewell Address, Jan. 11, 1989

Mom is doing a wtf over that one.

CensoredIt looks like you and Miles have a special bond. When my son was born I opened up a gmail account in his name. I have been emailing the account sometimes once a month and other times several times a day. Sometimes I talk about decisions we had to make that he did not like and why we made them. Other times I talk about fun stuff, working on cars or challenges we have worked through. Lately, it been more about my diagnosis. He does not know about the account. He will find out about it and get the password whenever I pass. You should consider doing the same with Miles.

I'm going to get it repaired and give it to my oldest daughter.
Now I gotta order a new car.
