Prayers up Fifty.  You can get through this as ornery as you are and I mean that in the best of ways.

I have a mass on my left kidney that was diagnosed as cancer by two doctors plus my iron was so low I had to have iron infusions done to get back my energy and white blood cells back to some type of normal. The jest of this is we done more MRI's and the mass was then changed to a cyst and not cancerous. I have a MRI done every 6 months to keep an eye on that little sob.

So hang in there all is not lost.

you are the most awesome guy on this site. i hope when i grow up i share some of your qualities. i cannot tell you how much this means. even with my bad jokes you are still awesome. thank you for making me feel better.

That's not good news but all may not be lost. Being one of the cool kids, I have not one but two types of cancer. Been being treated for over two years now and showing steady if slow improvement. They are making huge advances in the medical oncology field. Here's hoping yours is very treatable.

thank you mikey. they say it will be a piece of cake for taking out a whole kidney. the stuff they use to put you under makes me sick as a dog and you can bet i will tell them. i am a little scared but i am more afraid of something happening and me losing my dogs since they are rescues and oddballs and get put down. thanks mikey this means a lot. i know we have fought like cats and dogs but i could sit down and break bread with you. it will be hard with no family to back me up but i will be fine. it could be a lot worse.

I also have three dogs that are rescues. I know the feeling, I'm all they've got.  I'm more worried about the dog's future than I am my own.

Praying for you and the dogs! When times feel dark, jump on here and remember you are never alone…even if we fight like an unhealthy family at times. 😀

Sorry to hear in, fifty.  That's sounds rough, but augolf's story gives cause to be optimistic. Medical science is amazing sometimes.  I'll keep you in my prayers.

Same to you Fiddy. Know you had mentioned a while back that the doctors had seen something and hoping it had turned no big deal. Had some work to do yesterday on my sons house in old original Auburn. You would appreciate the area.

Your post put a damper on the day. We are at the age of having problems or knowing people with issues. Just have to work through them.

my apologies. i am pretty upbeat about it. my best friend is taking me for mexican and their macho nacho's and they are killer. all the meat is grilled including shrimp. also steak and chicken and that mexican cheese. i am going to make a point to enjoy myself and have fun. i had a couple i never met pray for me yesterday at the pizza shack which a neighbor owns and i was humbled. it lifted me up. and if someone smarts off about your drinking again tell em to sit on a hot stove. you are retired and you enjoy your life how you see fit. i can tell you take care of family. in fact you being a fisherman tell em to go eat a fish head. grins. you could probably send em one.

i think you are a hoot in truth when you party. you earned it salty. people judge too dang much. i took a shot at you once over it but i was just fighting hard. i actually enjoyed it. but i would not have dared tell you that at the time.
