Sam,  Very sorry to hear this negative news, I wish it was better. Like I have said before all any of us can do is one day at a time and keep marching on and make everyday count as if it could be our best. We all have trials in our lives and it is how we handle them that describes our character. Remember that God doesn't give us anything we can't handle!
   We will be praying for you and yours, thinking of you often, Mike and Sandra

Hello Family and Friends at CVOHarley forums,

Thanks for your continued replies, thoughts and prayers.
They mean alot to both me and Sue.
I hope this post finds you and yours well

Here's the sooner and shorter winded update I always promise. lol

I finally recieved the word from the Boston Veterans Hospital today. The tumor board and those in power to make decisions concerning me have decided that I am not a canidate for either of two surgeries needed to remove the most part of the Thymic Carcinoma cancer that in now in both my lungs. I was also told that there is just to much cancer to deal with surgically. So, to put it in the simplest terms, I guess I don't have to make that decision now (lol) whether or not to go ahead with the plan for Oct 7th for the first surgery that would tackle the 5 tumors in my right lung. So be it.
I was also told to get back to my oncologist at the Vermont Veterans Hospital to see if chemotherapy might be a plan of attack against my cancerous parasite. This I do know for sure, at this point anyway, it's out of my hands, so please continue your thoughts and prayers for me especially so I make the right chioces that are before me, I still need wisdom concerning this matter.

I'm pretty tired of waiting for the Doctors to all be on one page. I think I'm going to get on my motorcycle and take a ride with the goal of getting the cobwebs out of my head. This ride must be soon because as you know, shorter days and the cold of winter is soon on us here in NH.

Thanks again
your friend and brother
Sam aka chappy

PS How's that for sooner and shorter winded? lol

Sam,  This sounds like a good plan, probably much needed, keep a good attitude.
 Our prayers will continue for sure,  Mike & Sandra

Being there Chappy I have a lot of empathy for you.
Helping others seems to get me away from myself.

I`m praying for Gods will for you and the power to carry it out.

Hi Sam and Sue,   
  Hope you both are having a good day, any riding?  Well just thinking about you both and thought I would send a note.

Continued prayers, Mike

Sam,
You and Sue get on that bike and ride, it is something both of you will enjoy!
Riding always seems to help in clearing my head. ( as if anything will help my head )
As always my prayers are with you.
Mike

I've got tjust about all the bugs worked out so the plan is just about written in stone.I'm leaving in the rain on Wednesday the 29th of September.
Goes like this:Sunapee, NH to Hartford, CT to Scranton, PA to Maggie Valley, NC to Chattanooga, TN to Jasper, TH to Jacksonville, AL to Milton, FL to Tampa, FL to Savannah,GA to Lawrenceville, GA to Dacula, GA to Scranton, PA to Hartford, CT to Sunapee, NH Roughly 4000 miles give or talk.

It's a great plan and lots of sites to see.
the only bad thin is I am starting chemo again as soon as I get home. Man, I got to tell Ya, it just isn't any fun doing chemo. * hours on Monday, 5 hours each on Tuesday and Wednesday. It make me sick a bit more every day a little more to about the half way point of the 3 week cycle, then I feel a little better each day until I feel pretty good on that Friday. But then I realize on Monday it all starts again. Wouldn't ya know it, the thought of it makes me sick even thinking it's going to start on Monday.

But It does kill the cancer.... along with lots of good stuff too. Kind of like that olf KFC chicken TV commercial, "PARTS IS PARTS".

I'm ready to try sleep again a4:15am
