  1. Tomorrow at 1:30 pm est I'm having a rigid broncscopy, with lazer surgery to cut out the cancer that is blocking my left bronchus, then they are gong to attempt to put a y-shaped stent to go in both airways to help stop the pressure from another tumor that is trying to cut off my air fron the outside. I have had 15 or 16, rigid bronchs before and it is usually no big deal , some muscle pain from the anesthia(sic), the throacic surgeon asked me what i wanted him to do if I started bleeding I said I want you to open me up I'm not done living, I think my wife thinks I'm going to die, her brother flew back in from AZ after being back in Az only 4 days from a one month visit here, people have been calling who never call or very rarely and she won't talk about it, I guess most people don't like to talk aabout death, I'm scared but I still pray every night. I'm rambling I didn't sleep well, my wife had to go to work was going to be home @ 3pm almost 5 pm here now I hate when she does that and heaven fu**ing help me if I say one single word. Sorry
  2. It is about 60 deg here tonight perfext night to sleep with the window open, my neighbor has decided to put a fire in his fireplace, the houses are staggered here and I think his chimney is defective because the smoke is coming right in our home, the smoke isn't going up I can see a whiff come in every now and then and I'm choking no oen window . don't mean to witch but this sucks.
  3. Bruce you are brave and my hero! Taking on Ry and Debi at the same time. Ry has to watch it though as I know how to get to her house and have been there. Debi did you get that indoor bathroom put in yet? Is Dollywood a BUSTing good time?
  4. Last night my dog of 11 + years died peacefully here at home, my sister had taken my boys for a few days so it was quiet here. She had been sick for a week plus the vet thought she might have had sn infection of some kind, I put the poisoning thing on the back burner for my own sanity, she was a garbage hound, never knew what she had eaten. We are taking her to get cremated 1st thing this morning.DavidA _________________ DavidA GO PISTONS IN 2004!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Passes

    I may have to take over the hall passes as Ry is much to easy, and I never go any where so why should anyone else.
  11. David A

    Hall pass.....

    Andrea, I think you have exceeded the limit for hall passes the fiscal year, you need to get in touch with Ry regarding this, we need money real bad for a road trip!. Have fun in Tahoe, my #1 bil has a truck that is called a Tahoe,wonder if their is a connection
  12. Rochelle, Did Karen pay her fine before they left?, It isn't Davids fine! You have gotta keep on them women bout paying for their mishaps.
  13. ummmmmmmm Becky, does that mean you are good at nagging? I don't want any trouble with you. just curious
  14. Tonight my granmother Ileth Thelma Watson went to the other side of life to join many family members there, she was 98 years old and lived a good life all but the last 5 years dependent on no one but herself. Granma will be missed but she is no longer suffering. There was another more trajic death in my family today too, my favorite brother-in-laws cousin was found floating in a lake, sounds liike the police suspect murder as this woman was only 40. Lord have mercy upon their souls please.
  15. Thanks all feeling better today , the boys are home with me today, and it is a gorgeous day in MI. I have to take them to get hair cuts and to the dentist, good day for a nice cruise in my car with the windows down. My wife is meeting me at the dentist so I can go to the local lung cancer support group at the cancer center, suppose to me nice the next 4 days, hopefully I can enjoy the new front porch some. Thank you all for the prayers and well wishes, y'all are my bestest friends and that no lie. David A

    ASAP

    My Mother sent this to me This was sent to me and now I am sending it you with a prayer. Ever wonder about the abbreviation A.S.A.P.? Generally we think of it in terms of even more hurry and stress in our lives... Maybe if we think of this abbreviation in a different manner, we will begin to find a new way to deal with those rough days along the way. ************* There's work to do, deadlines to meet; You've got no time to spare, But as you hurry and scurry- ASAP - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER In the midst of family chaos, "Quality time" is rare. Do your best; let God do the rest- ASAP - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER. It may seem like your worries Are more than you can bear. Slow down and take a breather- ASAP - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER God knows how stressful life is; He wants to ease our cares, And He'll respond to all your needs A.S.A.P. - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER. ******** My instructions were to send this to four people that I wanted God to bless and I picked you. Please pass this to four people you want to be blessed. This prayer is powerful and there is nothing attached, please do not break this pattern; prayer is one of the best gifts we receive. There is no cost but a lot of rewards, let's continue to pray for one another. God bless and have a nice day! In the tiny petal of a tiny flower that grew from a tiny pod, Is the miracle and the mystery Of all creation and God!
  17. HI Friends, I started a new chemo (Alimta) last week, it is kicking my butt good,vomitng, fatique and general feeling like crap. Please include me in your prayers and good thoughts. Thank you, David
  18. Happy Birthday Donna, I hope you have a good one . if I had known I'd sent you one of Ry's cabana boys.
  19. The teacher gave her fifth grade class an assignment: Get their parents to tell them a story with a moral at the end of it. The next day the kids came back and one by one began to tell their stories. "Johnny, do you have a story to share?" "Yes, ma'am, my daddy told a story about my Aunt Carol." "Aunt Carol was a U. S. Marine Pilot in Desert Storm and her plane got hit. She had to bail out over enemy territory and all she had was a small flask of whiskey, a pistol and a survival knife. She drank the whiskey on the way down so it wouldn't fall into enemy hands and then her parachute landed right in the middle of twenty enemy troops. She shot fifteen of them with the gun until she ran out of bullets, killed four more with the knife, 'til the blade broke and then she killed the last one with her bare hands." "Good heavens," said the horrified teacher, "What kind of moral did your daddy teach you from that horrible story?" "Stay the hell away from Aunt Carol when she's been drinking."

    the dog is in kidney or heart failure the vet thinks, she is pretty lethargic. I'm doing okay had a couple of rough days on the new chemo. Tomorrow I see the thoracic surgeon to talk about lazer surgery and what not. I can so relate to the dog right now.
