Joey Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 Sorry to hear that Bruce, Paul and I send our thoughts and good wishes!
Old Ironmaker Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 We are saying our prayers. Like I always say even though I'm not religious I am somewhat spiritual and prayers are good. My very dear friend and boating buddy that I spoke of earlier, Kevin Henderson, lost his battle with this God awful disease yesterday. He fought to the end, I know that because he was still strong enough to argue with me just last Sunday about who knows what and hung up on me. It would have been the last time I would talk to him. I really don't feel bad about that because that was are relationship, I say black he says no way white. I'll miss those tiffs we always had.
crappieperchhunter Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 Was hoping that you folks where done with the "C" word Bruce. Wishing Judy all the best for this go around.
davey buoy Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 Bruce ,just a small speed bump,this will be behind the two of you before you know it. All the best.
irishfield Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 Tell Judy to keep plowing forward.. asking questions and taking names Bruce! All of those ARE important and part of the puzzle.
spincast Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 sorry to hear that Bruce - best wishes and be strong.
wormdunker Posted February 4, 2015 Report Posted February 4, 2015 Hey Bruce - I missed most of this post being out west working. Just got caught up with it. My prayers to Judy, yourself & the rest of your family.
bigugli Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Posted February 25, 2015 On another note, in the chair beside my wife was a fellow angler I had not heard from in months. I was really taken aback. Sadly, I heard this evening that he did not make it. Over the course of Judy's treatments. Mazz's sessions often overlapped. We got to talk a fair bit about fishing. It was a welcome distraction for both of us, I guess. His wife and Judy would talk about other things . Stopped hearing from Barry before the summer, and kind of guessed the rest. Mazz was an avid angler, and a good man to talk with. I know he will be missed by many.
bigugli Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Posted February 25, 2015 Despite the forementioned news, we have some good news, and some not so good news. After all the testing, Judy is, touch wood, cancer free. That is one sigh of relief. On another note, one kidney has shrunk. Possibly related to the kidney problems she experienced during chemo. lastly, Judy is not a candidate for reconstructive surgery, and that really has the Mrs upset.
crappieperchhunter Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Debbe opted out of reconstructive surgery 18 years ago when she went through it Bruce. Has never regretted that decision either. I hope after the initial shock wears off Judy takes a deep breath and realizes it really isn't an issue at all.
lew Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Good to hear the cancer has finally been beaten Bruce, really good news.
Joey Posted February 25, 2015 Report Posted February 25, 2015 Nice to hear that Judy is cancer free Bruce. Hope she does okay with the shrunken kidney.
