~Deacon's Fucked up Cancer Thread~

[SithLordSexyPants1]

Deacon, sorry to hear cancer has dealt you this tough hand. Hoping the surgery and other procedures go well.

 

[barefootgirl69]

You are never far from my thoughts even when you aren't posting. We will hunt you down in other ways! Lol

Keep up thinking positively, DV. I'm glad you had a chance to see your sister and her family...that's always a good thing, right?

BCC said it best...

Please know your cheerleaders have never left you. Life happens, then you adjust. We are here with you and for you regardless, through your lows and highs

Thanks for the update. Been reading from the sidelines

Everyone knows when life stinks, what to do with lemons. But sometimes the lemonade is just as sour and life still stinks. Although you have faced this battle with an admired openness, you must know that even when you have not logged in, there is a network of people keeping you in their positive thoughts and prayers. Just know those thoughts and prayers continue in your absence.

 

[sallycee]

Sending you lots of positive thoughts and vibes.

 

[PattiJolene]

l was wondering about you, thanks for the update Deacon. Stay positive. Sending prayers your way. *hugs*

 

[LadyJS]

Thinking about and saying a prayer for you

 

[shmily]

sending continued prayers and hugs your way sir.
Glad you got to visit with your sister and niece.
hugs!

So it's been a while since I've posted, so I figured I'd post an update.

I went in for a PET scan and a PT scan, and found something in my lungs. I've been told not to panic, but we all know how that works. I decided to call my sister to see if she could come out for a visit, and she was here a couple weeks later.

I hadn't seen her in a few years, and I hadn't seen my niece in almost seven years. They were here a week and it was wonderful. The distraction was nice too.

Now back to the tumor in my colon

I had a scope done a week ago, and actually got to see the damn thing. The radiation has turned it black, and it has shrank quite a bit. I had an MRI done a few days ago, and now I'm just waiting for a surgery date, which should happen soon.

After that, we look further into my lungs to see if it is indeed cancer which may have come from my colon, or could be from 25 years of smoking, which I gave up back in 2009.

I'm still staying positive but it would be nice to catch a damn break at some point, lol.

Anyway, that's whats up in my roller coaster life

Hang in there Deacon!!! Will keep you in my prayers! Hopefully you WILL catch a break and keep cancer's ass!

So . . . .

I saw my cancer surgeon today, and the tumor hasn't shrank enough for him to feel comfortable doing surgery. I now have a tumor in my right lung that they say came from my colon tumor. I'm going on IV chemo very soon, and will be on it for five months.

Fuck it, I hate shaving my head anyway, lol.

This will finish off my kidneys so dialysis is right around the corner. Who knows, maybe this is a good thing. I'll lose weight, which is required for a transplant, and I have five siblings that might be a match.

I know chemo is rough, but I'm not ready to lose a fight yet

Anyway, keep me in your thoughts or prayers

Remember you are a fighter. This is only round 8 of a 15 round fight. You got this.

[SithLordSexyPants1]

So sorry to hear this news Deacon. Keep up the fight. Have you gotten a second opinion?

 

[MuscleDaddy]

New to this thread but here to support you in your struggle. Every male on my father’s side has had colon cancer and I got my own first polyps scraped out at the tender age of 21. Also just had a coworker have to take leave due to their father being close to passing from it. So there are others of us out there who have also watched/experienced the struggle more than willing to offer whatever we can (as I’m sure you already know from the long list of people who have voiced it before me).

 

[barefootgirl69]

Ugh, DV! I hate this news but I know you have so many of us here supporting and praying for you. You're a wonderful example to those of us who are also struggling with something in our lives, though maybe not to this extent. Keep up the fight!!!

You have always been a fighter and you have an army of people behind you fighting for you the only way we know how with thoughts prayers and love. Please know we are all one small message away and are happy to listen when you want to talk. Sending you strength and some good Ole fashioned boobie squished hugs cause I know those are your favorite

That sucks Deacon! I have faith in our ability to win these fights, and they say chemo is better these days! FUCK CANCER!!! : You will remain in my thoughts and prayers!

 

[Deacon_Voss]

Thanks everyone for the positive thoughts and encouragement. Today is a much better day, and I'm ready to take this on just like every other trial I've dealt with in the past. Tomorrow morning I go in for the consult about my port for the chemo. Should be fun

I'll keep everyone informed
