I posted the message below and just copy and pasted it here. I have spent a lot of years here, have had a load of fun, and meet a few of y'all! Took a lot of boating pics, and worked with WMI for several years runnin my boat (since RD's Parker Enduro) with a rescue team aboard. Same with the NWSRA Ski team. I've had a great time! -- And hope I can get back to it! :) This is a great group and I've been very grateful to be a part of it! --- And just remember! -- First Place!.. Havasu's Coolest Boat Winner!:D

Well Mates! My countdown has begun. I'm getting ready for some tough times ahead - I'm pretty sure. A good part is happening Wednesday, I'll be meeting two game warriors (one flying out from the NY area i guess) that have helped me get started in this game and developed a webship with - over the past 4 years. Mel (BSC) and Cord are coming to meet, BS, and have lunch and dinner. Thursday I go in for a Angiogram, stents (if worthy) and find out what is going on with me heart. The Hernia from a blood thinner sneeze is a concern, but the ultrasound I had a couple weeks ago has me a bit more concerned! Said they showed a couple masses in me abdomen. I know this is to much info, But y'all have been awesome allowing me to be here, fight with, and supportive! Thank You ALL! .... I'll keep on fighting a day at a time! ..... And! ...>>>

Hey hey! Don't get all dower and shit.

I thought I was doomed a few years ago and it turned out to be something completely treatable. Let the Dr.s do their thing and keep yourself educated on whatever might be going on.
I do appreciate that! But the Dr. (surgeon) in Vegas when I went for the Hernia evaluation planted them thoughts in My head (and been dealing with the best I (we) can) That I likely wouldn't make it through the procedure! :( Kind of a hard pill to swallow!

You got this!

It's easy to think the worst. Just go and deal with this one thing at a time.
I can send you funny memes while you are waiting at the Dr. office!

Best to you and your family as you move through these challenging times. They are able to do amazing things medically these days. You got this and will have many days more here with the rest of the inmates on RDP.

You got this!!!

River Runnin,
You been here @RDP many years. No doubt you know TPC (Ross). If possible talk to Ross. Not going to type out & post personal stuff regarding RDP member other than to say Ross defines the definition of survivor.
Stay positive RR.

Prayers are with you. Just remember, no mater what the doctors say or think there is nothing that is impossible for our Lord. I have no doubt that your doctors are top notch so I'll be praying that he guides their thoughts and hands during your procedure.

One day at a time, like you said. Also, get a second opinion, it is worth the effort.

Prayers to you and your family.
