I have made many great friends thru this site and at meets and I cherish each and every one of them. Unfortunately, its my health that has prompted this. I found out in February that I have stage 4 esophogeal cancer. By that point, it was 10cm long and blocking most food passage. It had actually blown out the back of the esophohus and spread cancer along my back wall along my spine, to my lungs, my lymph nodes, my adrenals, possibly my stomache & liver. Due to the spread, my Dr. said that surgery or radiation wasn't an option. She put me on chemo that I was doing at home thru a pump in a fanny pack for 48 hrs every 2 weeks. After 4 treatments, another CT scan was done to see how we are doing. We found that the cancer is still growing. We changed chemo type and this new chemo will make me lose my hair. Its done in the office at MD Anderson for about 5 hrs every 2 weeks. The tumor is now pressing on my heart making me tire quickly and get short of breath. My BP is now low and they were reconsidering doing radiation but found that was not an option. A feeding tube is in the offering soon. I have gone from 175 in August to 123 now with a low of 118. I have fought the good fight but I'm losing the war. I didn't want to just disappear and not say anything to anyone. I will still continue to fight as long as I can. I have only had one of these new treatments and we won't know anything else for sure til we do another scan. I'll stop by as I can and post as I see fit, but I don't read all the posts like I use to. I want to thank all of you for your friendship and help on this site and at meets. I'm sure there are a couple I have pissed off over time and I'm sure they hold a grudge and will post negatively here. Just let them go. Someone will post back when I'm gone. Some of my items may go up for sale after that. May God bless you all. Please pray for a miracle for me. Prowl on! This message has been edited by idive on 07-25-2014 at 10:12 AM |

I am truly sad hearing this... I would like to tell you to be strong, but don't know if I was in the same situation that I could be strong myself. You have always been a good friend to me, we talked about Prowler projects, our dogs and about the common interests we share... good times, my regret is that we have never had the chance to meet in person... My Dad told me "the only real thing we leave behind is the Respect others had for us"... you sir have always had mine and I hope I have earned yours as well... I will pray for you my brother.....

This is very sad news for POA. In the four years I've been hanging around here, I've come to respect you as a Prowler owner. We had our moments, but we had fun too. I looked forward to the day where you would complete your headlight/air duct mod. Maybe someone will take up that project and we will call it the Idive Airduct Mod in tribute to you. God bless you Idive. |
