Sorry to hear, but life sucks from time to time. Enjoy a good wife/woman and your child and hope for a future cure - besides that, live your life wether it's short or long - you only have one chance to do it good.With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

But now I don't want to talk about this anymore for a while. I'm doing OK and maybe participate in the polyton baby cutefest (bet you didn't see that one coming!), and had a succesful surgery. I'm not in pain, meds work well and I found a new passion subject.In da butt.

Also, thanks for your supporting comments and the ability to refrain from stupid comments. It's the internets, so it's a small miracle in itself. Be talking to you all later.In da butt.

Best of luck Pekka. Keep in mind too that estimates of life expectancy after tumor treatment tend to be conservative.We need seperate human-only games for MP/PBEM that dont include the over-simplifications required to have a good AI

Did they put the tumor in a jar for you to keep?Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

He answered that question. Of course, you would have to be interested enough to read before jumping in to post.
I was thinking about the tumor-in-the-jar-thing as well. I half-seriously thought it would be cool to beat it first and then to have it in a jar in the bookshelf. Not like (or unlike) the whole fetuses in the jars thing. Not in a horror movie type of a way, but more like a science/important part of me/victory/etc sign. I bet it doesn't even look that gross to begin with. And it would remind me every day how lucky I have been when I feel unlucky or whine about something.
I was under the impression that I might be able to get it should I want to, the surgeon first of all is a really service oriented and likes me, plus he said that they videotaped it and asking my permission for it, so I know I could get that, I don't see any reason why I couldn't get the tumor, or part of it, should I want it. Maybe it would be a question of "well you need to have someone put it in the jar for you". But that's just arrangements.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

But I'm getting optimistic, naturally I still swing downwards quite fast thinking I've got two years to live etc. but then I get back up again thinking I'll go for few more decades for sure, and now I have to because we came back from the ultrasound(?), and we've got a picture of this small new family member of oursMan it was an experience to hear that intensive heart go fast!! Easily the best experience in my life so far, amazing.
So there's always hope even with this tumor, you never know, and it was still not cancerous so you know this isn't the worst possible news. It just means that I have to be somewhat careful and go to these scans regularly and probably sweat it out waiting for the results every now and then and eat pills for the rest of my life, but other than that, I guess I'm in a situation that many others are as in as well and almost everyone knows someone else who is. Just taking it day at a time, waiting for a new family member to show up and refusing to succumb to anymore bad cells.In da butt.

Consider yourself very fortunate that it was discovered at a point when it could still be treated. That's a big plus. Go live life, dude.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
