Mike. I can not say how sorry I am. This is just devastating. I know you have taken care of your family. I know you have thought about this a lot, and I for one respect your decision. Only you can say enough is enough. I gratefully appreciate all of your help for me and others on here. All I can say is, have a safe journey from here on out.

If I have brought a smile or laugh to you over our time together or helped you discover something good about yourself, then I’ve done my job. Life is to be lived and it must contain laughter!

Wish I could say words as you have said them, and wish I could reply in words similar to yours.

Like so many on this site, I just cannot put into words or get my head around your news.
I have been on this journey for 7 years now, and you have played such a big role on my trip with cancer[/size][/size]i don't even have the words in my vocabulary to thank you!
You have been in my prayers for years, and will continue to be.

Like many others here, I'm at a loss for words to see your news. I somehow feel I know your so well through your writing, maybe even better than people I see every day. You feel like family, and right now I feel the same way I would if an actual family member were going through what you are--shocked and saddened, but hoping against hope for a miraculous turnaround. You are facing what is to come with dignity, nobility, knowledge, and humor--all those qualities that you've brought to us here on the ABCLS forum for many years. When I first signed on here, yours was one of the first "voices" I became aware of. Even though my circumstances were, and are, very different than yours, I've always read whatever your wrote, on whatever topic. Hope you have wonderful travels with Liz. I know you will continue to live your life to its fullest.

Mike, You are my "superman" on this site. I will always be grateful for your kindness and wisdom when I was so scared and unsure what to do next. Go travel with your beautiful wife and keep filling that bucket list. I will always keep you in my prayers. Julie
