Todd, I read your posts whenever I see them. I do not always post responses as I most times do not have much to add to the conversation. I confess I have not spent a lot of time on your blog but have visited. I personally find your story to be one of hope for those just starting the journey as well as the veterans. You have had a remarkable response to the treatments. Your writing style is filled with wit and humour... both admirable traits IMHO.

Keep posting here or on the blog. Ignore the nay sayers. Stay well.

Todd - you have a powerful story to tell. It needs to be told.

Those that say otherwise don't understand the positive impact your story makes.

Keep writing and ignore the critics.

So I'm a "groupie"......

There are worse things.

Wow!! So many encouraging replies as well as an encouraging email.
You all made my morning. Thank you. There is so much I want to say but what I said above sums it up. I know there will always be critics and nay sayer's. I need to take that to heart. I will try to do better at it. I have just never been attacked for trying to help others before and I still feel the sting from the venom.

I do not understand what drives negativity. In spite of a serious diagnosis, I count every one of my days as a blessing. I am truly a very happy man and try to focus on that which is good and beautiful. I too have my bad days. I have been known to lash out in frustration but thankfully, those days are rare. Life is too good and too wonderful to dwell on the darkness. Laughter is my sword of choice. Love is my shield. Joy is my armor. Friend are my army. Thank you all so much. Have a joyful day. Todd

As a relatively new guy and participant, I can only say that I find your posts very helpful and your story is inspiring. Just knowing there is hope and that you are out there and beating the odds keeps many of us hopeful. Whatever you decide, you have helped me. You should know that.

Best,

John

I love good quotes-- I may have a new favorite: "Laughter is my sword of choice. Love is my shield. Joy is my armor. Friend(s) are my army." Todd 1963

Todd, you always make me feel hopeful. You will never realize how powerful that is.

Yup. We're groupies too. Blog, posts, pretty much anything you've ever written. So sue me... ;-)

I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all your kind words. It was a busy past few days and I just remembered I forgot to say thank you

Hey Todd, as I'm not here much at all anymore I'm not aware of the thread and post that caused you to start this thread - however I can certainly relate.... I finally backed away due to similar issues, particularly many of my posts being attacked by an untouchable out here with no consequence. You however are in so many ways a better man so yeah you need to be here doing what you're doing. Peace Bro.........

Todd:

I did not realize that there was some other thread that caused issues. Gee, I look away for a minute...

Please don't let any of that stuff get to you.

I'll leave it at that!

Mel

Same here. I missed it. I see no advantage to the forum if Todd leaves. So unless there is an advantage for Todd, please stick around. I know you are not threatening to leave, but still, I hope you don't.

Oh I'm not going anywhere. I just need to focus my attention on becoming more tolerant.
