I never thought I would write this here. Never. A week ago Saturday my wife of 58 years was taken to the hospital with respiratory problems and was diagnosed yesterday with cancer all through her body. The prognosis is not good and she started receiving hospice care yesterday, immediately after the diagnosis.
Sigforum has been like a family to me for many years. We have shared our joys and our sorrows and I just ask that you will think of my family and especially my wife. Thank you.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Gutpile Charlie,

"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24
If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.
