Hello
Hi guys I'm new here and I really love corvettes it has been my dream car since I was a kid, however everything went downhill for me as I was recently diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. I feel that I am going to beat this devil and buy a C6 soon cause life to short. So anyways I came here to the forums here to get more information and get to know corvettes a little better than what I really know before I buy one because if you own a corvette you know it better then someone who never owned one like me.
Thank you
Sammy

Hi Sammy, sorry to hear about the cancer. Hang in there and hopefully you will beat it. I was given 6-9 months in December 1996. Spent 14hours in the O.R. with a team of 6 Doctors working on me. 5 days in ICU to recover and another 2 weeks in Hospital. 2 months later when everything was healed had 37 radiation treatments. Lost 50 lbs and only able to eat oatmeal and drink boost for 4 months. Last Tuesday Doctors say that I'm still cancer free and they give me 80 % odds that it will not return. Keep a positive additude, it will help you beat this. My prayers tonight will be for you.
