    Not fair, but then you know

    Not fair, but then you know that.  I know you will optimize your treatment and time making the best decisions for you and your family. 

    You still have time to enjoy life.  Here's to more wine soaked lunches.

    Sending love, light and prayers your way.

    Wow Steve. Not exactly the post I was hoping to see... but I completely understand your feelings.

    Never regret decisions made because they had a reason when they were made...

    I appreciate you letting us know what is going on with you ...

    My wish for you ... is joy and happiness and no regrets... life is life... happiness and peace!... <3

    Steve

    You've done things that very few people in the world had done. Your life was like climbing Mount Everest. And yes you got some frostbites, lost a limb, went trhough a lot of pain, but you did it. You are like one in a hundred million. You have a supporting family, friends and community and you can proudly say to everybody's face: I'v done all this. I'm beat, tired and maybe broken some places, but I'm still here after all these trials. You could be one of the people who died or got terribly injured in car accidents today, at their job, at home etc. But you are here, still watching the sunrise everyday, breathing, heart beating, because you are one of the strongest man in human history and that's very special.

    We all love you and take strength from you.

    Wish you not to forget to notice the beauty in the world every day and go to bad with the conclusion that this was a good day and for a few ours you are gonna be at peace while you are sleeping.

    Hi Steve

    I'm sorry about your recurrence.  I am a strong believer that no one can predict what is going to happen next.  Doctors are not the end all be all.  You make decisions that best fit the time you're in and then adapt.  I've completely adapted to my ostomy at this point, it is what it is.  My uncle was given three months, he lived six years.  My aunt was told she was terminal, she's alive and kicking 10 years down the road.  We just don't know what will come out next or what life will bring us.  Keep on keeping on and enjoying this crazy life of ours.  Take the break you need and then decide.  You have a large group of people rooting for you!

    well, I wasn't expecting

    well, I wasn't expecting this.  Makes me sad for you Steve, your wife, your kids.  The people we love the most who will hold on the tighest.  Pack the time with sweetness and memories for all to have for a lifetime.  As a fellow in this battle we did not choice- everyday I wake up, feel the sunshine for those that can no longer, watch children grow up because their mom left way to soon and as a Mom, I do that for her.  I carry the pieces of lives in my heart and soul, and I step forward going forward for all.  Your piece will be there someday, and I will walk forward with pride that our lives touched.  Wishing you a peaceful journey Steve,

     

    With Love from Minnesota
