MM, I’m sorry to hear this is happening to you. I wish you the best.
Good luck MonkeyMensch; hoping you beat the odds.
What Carriers were you on? I was on the USS Ranger in the 80s.
My FIL passed away last weekend, of a glioblastoma. The GBM was actually the most pleasant way to die, given his options (the other was a slow, sad degeneration and eventual asphyxiation from Huntington’s).
He was diagnosed over 2 years ago, and had other medical issues. I don’t know what else is going on with the OP health-wise, but just wanted to share that this isn’t an immediate death sentence.
I hate that I can’t say anything that won’t sound like trite platitudes. Sometimes shitty hands get dealt and it sucks. I wish I could buy you a drink or a pizza or something.
Aw, Jesus, asshole ;), we’re all nearer the grave than the maternity ward, and we’ve been buds for years. This board welcomes us scum, and we welcome the dregs of humanity what washes up here. Cut yerself a break and accept us as your peers. ![]()
It’s a great place for it, and it will last forev…until the next server crash.
I’m sorry. But I wish you would come back to the thread MonkeyMensch, MonkeyMensch.

Very sorry to hear this news.
Wishing you all the best, MM.
mmm
I lurk more than I post, too, but wanted to let you know that I’m sorry to hear this - it must be devastating for you. I don’t have the words so many other posters have… just please know my thoughts are with you.
i’M DoneWith RADIATION TEN DAYS AGO AND now will go into what’s called pulsed chemo with higher doses and then two weeks of of nothing. I’m eager for an imaging sessions to see if anything has workked so far…
Glad to hear you’re still with us.
How are you feeling? Any ill effects from the treatment, or from the tumor?
I’ll keep my fingers crossed for the imaging results.
You got a lot of folks here on your side!
Sounds like they’re treating it as aggressively as they dare; I hope you get results back soon!
Best of luck to you. I hope you get great results.
I’ll add another Good Luck!
Tell us more about you, yourself, if you feel so inclined. We’re all here for you.
And good luck, best wishes, fingers crossed!
So sorry to hear this. Keep fighting and check back in with us.
Glad to get the update. When will they do the imaging? How are you feeling after the radiation?
I’m so glad to hear treatment is proceeding! The very best of luck. Thank you for posting an update.
