Good day people. As you may know, I have been diagnosed with stage 4 renal cancer. I hope to begin my treatment soon so I can overcome this setback and get back to enjoying life once again. Any prayers and thoughts are appreciated.
Having cancer is scary. I have made peace with my life and being a Christian, If, for some reason, the treatment does not go as planned, I am ready to go see my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I cannot wait to see Heaven and all its glories. But, I am also concerned and sad. I will be leaving behind some awesome friends,(Jason and Andrew among them) family members and a wonderful and loving lady named Janie. She is the love of my life. Always has been even though things did not work out the first time around for us. She is an awesome lady and great companion. But my real concerns are with my chidren and grandchildern. My two daughters are both in their 30's and I think they will be OK if the time comes. I have a 10 year old and a 6 year old grandson. I pray their parents and their grandma(Janie) will help them understand that this should be a time of joy and celebration, not sadness. I will always be with them even if they do not see me. But, NONE of that is going to happen cause if the VA gets off their butt I will beat this thing worse than Reagan beat Mondale in '84.
Sorry for the long lead in and personal stuff but I am also concerned for my children and grandchildren for other reasons. The USA I love and grew up in is slowly vanishing. Personal responsibilty is being ignored by some and they want to blame everyone else for their plight in life. No job?Not my fault. I sit at home and collect benefits and eat candy all day so I am doing my part. No food or housing? Not my fault. Isn't the Government suppose to supply me with I phones, big screen tv, food stamps, condos and other NECESSITIES that make my life easier? I stubbed my big toe on the sidewalk the other day. Isn't the city responsible for my medical bills and punitive damages. I spilled hot coffee on myself at McDonald's the other day..guess I will sue them for me bring so clumsy. My great great great grandpa had a mule that was shot by a Union soldier...I want my mule back and I want it at TODAYS price, not the 1863 price. I love Star Wars more than Star Trek so I am going to deface that statue of Capt. Kirk and maybe even tear down that statue of the Enterprise. I could go on and on but hopefully you are smart enough people to get the drift as to why I am so concerned.
The Country is degrading. Journalism is dead, and the our fellow citizens have decided that voting is more of a chore than a privilage. Racial divide has increased the last 20 years because Politics has become a game where leaders play sides against each other. Money and power are more important to our elected officials than the will of the people. I have no doubt that under a strong liberal rule that values, beliefs and freedoms will be attacked constantly with a good possibilty of being eliminated. Socialism and Govt. control of everything is just ahead at the next sign post. The thing that is so frustrating is getting fellow citizens to see this and understand that their freedoms are in danger and their families are in danger. But hey, as long as we keep getting free cheese and I phones..who cares? Right? I just pray that my family and esp. my grandchildren survive the upcoming civil and military unrest that is probably going to include some sort of a civil war. May God help us all. Pray for your families and pray for your Country. Thank you for reading. Any and all comments are welcome, regardless of ideology.
