Thanks so much to all my
Corvette brothers and sisters, and especially to Pounder, a friend of the ultimate order. This brought tears to my eyes.
Actually, I do have peritoneal sarcomatoid mesothelioma, late stage 4. It is incurable at this stage and, actually rarely responds to chemo. I have decided to forgo any further treatment, as it is unlikely to benefit me and will take away the few good months I have left. The cocktail they had me on with little chance of benefit was completely debilitating. I still cannot walk 10 feet. Hospice will suffice.
My wife will be selling my 02 vert with 22 K on it soon after my death. Any support for her would be appreciated. She is not a car person. I would sell it now, but USAA insurance will pay it off upon my death. Financing it was cheaper than using IRA funds. It is a beauty. I would be happy to send info to anyone who may know somebody who may have an interest in a really beautiful and issueless C5 at a very fair price. I am real fussy and I bought it with 18,700 on it at about NADA with upgrades on it; Kooks, Borla, Elite Engineering, Conti, etc.
Thanks again, SO MUCH,
Dave

Very sorry to hear that and will be praying for him and his family.
On another note, very glad to see you are back around Pounder.

Praying for Dave and his family. I believe that God does heal! "By His stripes we are healed". The Holy Bible declares this.
I pray Dave and his family will receive what the Lord freely gives to His children.
