Had a Biopsy on Thursday. I have a new cancer at the top of my throat and it is inoperable. Only recourse is Chemo and yet to be known treatments. This should begin in a week or two as soon as they figure out what all I have.
I'm still home and am using a feeding tube to supplement normal eating.
Not what I was wanting to hear.
Mind your health!

Sad to hear this. We'll pray the chemo (and whatever else the doctors can come up with) works.

Very sobering news to have gotten, believe me! Thanks.
I still have a lot of kick in me. Not giving up.

Been away from the Computer for a while.
Your condition is not what I wanted to hear.
Hang tough (my prayers your way - God Bless you and yours).
