They opened me up at 530 am and I was awake by 12pm. I knew something was wrong when i awoke that soon. The doctor came in and told me they didn't take out my bladder because the cancer has spread to my side and looks like "a slab of concrete." They closed me up and now tell me I have a 20 or 30% chance and my only hope is chemo.

Thanks too everyone that took the time to think of me and send good vibes. It's in God's hands now.

I know it seems pretty dark right now but try and keep a positive mental attitude. It can do wonders for you. The brain is a very powerful thing. A positive attitude is essential.

You CAN get through this brother. Do not think otherwise. Keep up the fight. Try every available treatment.

My wife is a breast cancer survivor so I have seen it up close and personal. If you EVER have any questions or just want to talk, don't hesitate to post or PM me.

Remember, you are not alone in this fight. We are all pulling for you! beer cheer smiley



#HelmetHornsMatter

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.

“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
