Write on - Right On Bro!

"People do 1 of 2 things when they hear the word cancer. They put on the gloves or they pick up a shovel."

F'in a spot on.

I have to be careful saying that kind of stuff too strongly because I'm in the "lucky camp" out here in terms of what I'm having to (and not having to) deal with.

BUT - when someone like you Todd, and what you have gone through says this stuff, well, RESPECT!

Thanks yoop. That means a lot man.

Todd - Just read your latest post. Looks like your wonderful time in Hawaii and trip to NY set you on fire and any time you're speaking from your heart you can't go wrong

Blog on, Todd, Blog on

Thank you,
Susan

I always recommend your blog to others who are in the fight. It is so inspiring. I just shared w/ another gentleman on another group to check out your blog. The quote about the shovel and boxing gloves is one I repeat often and is one of the first things I read on your blog when Bob was first diagnosed. You're doing good in the world and are such an inspiration to many. Thank you, thank you, thank you.~Miki

Thank you to GFMPH gathering this past week for teaching this to Paul and letting him live a little. It's been great to see him so happy and changed......

Thank you Todd for giving us hope and sharing your story.

"You're sick. You're not dead."

Perhaps it should be made into a bumper sticker...
Posted 4/23/2015 4:29 PM (GMT 0)
I will get started on that.

and tee-shirts:

"I'm sick. Not dead."

Still thinking about a tee shirt with a picture of a prostate after biopsy. " congress said there is no need to screen"
Posted 4/23/2015 4:45 PM (GMT 0)
Yes - we need to add a tee-shirt store to your blog...

I saw my doctor today. Apparently my blood pressure is high. 156/115. It would have went down if he would have taken off the latex glove
Posted 4/24/2015 2:54 AM (GMT 0)
yeah, doctors make my BP go up...
Posted 4/24/2015 2:30 PM (GMT 0)
I like it, good blog, I share your feelings. As a woman that I work with who is fighting metastatic breast cancer puts it - "I'm living with cancer not dying from it"
