Stay strong and don't give up! Easy for us to say but you already know that attitude is the key. Send us an update and know that we are all saying prayers for you and you're family.

There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. - Albert Einstein

Prayers for your miracle Wayne..... - Peace

Default Don't Allow Yourself To EVEN THINK ABOUT GIVING UP..................

Mike, look to the small light and flicker that is out there. Concentrate on the positives and look to get outside any sandboxes. Your in control as long as you keep fighting. God Bless

I know this first hand as I glance down that road every time I walk through the infusion center doors knowing what's to come. Sadly, too many people will never realize or truly understand this and reach for what makes them happy.

Mike, I don't know you, but you have every ounce of my respect for coming on here and saying goodbye. No two cancers or treatments are alike.......but I can tell you that the pain is beyond what anyone can comprehend and in that respect, those of us touched by this disease truly know what you're going through.

If you have the power and the will to keep on fighting, then you fight!!! I have no words to offer any comfort as I know there are none - it is something you have to make peace with yourself on.

I wish you peace, a reprieve from your pain, prayers for your family to get through this and strength to make the choices that are right for you. If you've experienced love.........you've had a good life.

Godspeed to you
/\ Wonderful words of wisdom from one of the finest human beings I have ever meet. May all your days be blessed.
