Nice try, Charlie. I too have had one removed. And now I have just been told
I probably have lung cancer. I have a procedure next week to find out for
sure.

Not good, Dave. I hope you're wrong and they give you a clean bill of health.

Ya wanna call me "Wheezer" too.

Who's Wheezer One?

It is NO joking matter regardless who has it. Most of you will be in the
same
situation as I am. Get your PSAs checked and a DRE at least once a year.
Like
I said, caught early, it can be cured with very little after affects.
Dave

On your advice, done got it checked. .02. Woo Woo! May be the size of a
cassaba but it ain't cancer. Okay, too much info, but the results just came
back, so I'm a happy camper.

You must know by now, that apologising for anything at all on here is a
complete waste of time. It is far better to avoid problems in the first

How true. I wonder why.



I don´t really know. Possibly the unforgiving and semi-permanent nature of
the medium, coupled with a degree of anonymity. Even in real life,
apologising rarely "clears the board", people remember. They may forgive,
but they very rarely forget. If it happens a couple of times, they don´t
even take it seriously anymore.

G Like a very wise friend of mine once said, "They buried the hatchet, but
you could still see the handle."

Perhaps (actually, I'd bet on it...:-) you have that sort of long-
term memory, but ther real reason is because apologizing usually
doesn't have a long-term effect on the apologizer. I've apologized
to people here, most recently Frank Church, and I most definitely
meant it, but sooner or later I'll post something just as obnoxious
again (and I'm not including political rhetoric).

Wow, it's deja vu all over again.

nice stuff snipped

Take a day or two off from ROFF,
unless you need the diversion of course, but at least drop this hopeless
battle with people who mean you no harm.

I'll probably do better than that, Mike. It's like wayno said.....

That's really, really, really, tough, Dave. I hope that
someone's blown it but if not, depending on the cell type
and the extent, it can be eliminated or at least knocked
back for a loop for a good chunk of time. I hope that
that is what you find out. I guess that your wife knows
who you should deal with but if not I'd look into the
Brigham. Take care, Dave.

We've both been busy ready about it on the net (what the hell did we do before
we had this wonderful information source. I'm having a procedure done next
week and will find out more. We're hoping it is differentiated. Brigham is
certainly an option right now.

Thanks for your thoughts, Greg.

**** snipped

You are a liar. What exactly did you mean by the term "dried up"? I can't
spit? ****? I can't have children? What? You know damn good and well what
you meant, and no amount of posturing now or hiding behind others is going to
change it. You are a liar.
And if you don't like that, well..... you know where I live.

Wake the hell up.

I did not lie. I am not lying.

I called you dried-up because you ARE a dried-up old bitch.

Posting intimate details of yourself here is asking for trouble.

I have never posted anything about myself that I thought was "intimate".
Tatosian knows that I had prostate cancer and he knows which method I used
to
defeat it. I didn't have to post anything here.

More lies - or stupid conjecture. Either way, it's really sad you've been
carrying this around inside you for - how long has it been? Geeze, what a
waste, especially for a short-timer.

Carrying WHAT around? I've talked to you about the procedures and you told me
of your dad's experiences and how he lasted only a couple of years after the
same procedure. I have said nothing about that, only that you are aware of the
procedure used

I have no idea what you did, what you do, or what you will do, with respect
to
pretty much *ANYTHING*, and especially to do with your health.


Again, you are a liar. You know because I told you and you gave me
encouragement. Remember telling me how they have to cut into the organ to save
the nerves? I believe you said that is what kills most patients who use the
nerve-saving procedure because they actually cut into the tumor and don't get
all of it.

Oh, good grief. It wasn't enough that you took advantage of my hostage status
to do a 16 hour core dump about your prostate cancer, now you're going to
misremember the conversation, too?

Once again, no good deed goes unpunished.

First, what I told you was my father died from prostate cancer, five years
after he had his prostate removed using the nerve-sparing procedure - of which
I was familiar, yes - that the surgeons claimed "they got it all", but clearly
they did not. What I then said is they should have prescribed radiation and/or
chemo, but they were so goddamned sure they were infallible, and as a result
he died a horrible death.

And you told me you had the surgery. Or maybe were going to have the surgery,
I don't remember.

But big deal. I didn't think anything more of it then, and it shouldn't be
hard to believe that I haven't thought a goddamned thing about it since.

You are not the only dried-up old windbag I know that's gotten cut, so get
over it fer chrissakes - it doesn't entitle you to anything, and you're just
making a fool out of yourself.

After what I saw my dad go through, to think I'd even consider making random
joke about someone battling cancer is ridiculous. Period.

And you are a complete PIG to try to stick that rap on me.

You've been deluding yourself over this for so long you have no clue where
the
truth ended.

/daytripper (But one thing for sure, the truth appears without your help...)


The truth is that you are a liar. Sorry, but you knew of my condition We
talked about it. To deny it and make snide remarks about it is despicable.

**** you, Dave. I've told nothing but the truth, and unlike you, I haven't
used other people's posts to carry on this conversation, Dave.

As everyone but you apparently understood, the "dried-up" crack had nothing to
do with your goddamned gonads and had everything to do with the sorry, lying,
whining, self-entitled knee-jerk jingoist bitch you have become in your old
age.

Nothing more. Nothing less. Deal with it. And STFU about your goddamned dick,
fer chrissakes already. NOBODY CARES! Really - they don't! If it FELL OFF
COMPLETELY tomorrow nobody would care one way or the other, least of all me.

Your problems are in your own head - and I have nothing to do with you
becoming a psychotic paranoid, so please leave me out of your ****ed-up state
of affairs.
