How humbling your story is for me! Thankyou for having the courage to share it and the strength to acknowledge your fear! You are a man to be admired! As has already been mentioned, I will remember you, your family and your fiance' in my prayers! The road may seem tough, but you obviously have the fortitude to trudge it! Keep your mindset right. Stay happy, and above all, put your relationship with Christ at the forefront of your thoughts! If there are ANY specific prayer requests, make them known. My PM box is always open as well!!!!

Fentanol with supplementary drugs? You must be in some serious pain. I hope all goes well.

Sorry to hear man, I'm not on as much as I used to but I remember you quite well. Can't believe you are going through this and you are only 20. Good luck and hope things turn around for you. Keep your head up!

Dammit Jon, I can't stand to hear this. I pray that God would stay by your fiance's side, and that he would keep her strong. She has to be. I ask him to carry you and take your pain away. Fentanyl does the trick, but made my husband hallucinate. The liquid morphine was a gift. I will continue to pray for you, as I know everyone at SVTP will.

i'm whiplash 306's mother in law... i have had 2 mastectomies and the outlook for future cases of cancer are pretty high... it has taken me some time to come to terms with this ... i will tell you one thing... when there seems to be no hope.... there is hope... i found mine in the words of the living God (the bible)...at one point i was so sick and was in fact dieing .. my port had abcessed and i had 4 infections on top of that... they could not get me rehydrated nor medicated with antibiotics (my veins were too small and would not accept a needle)... as i lay in my hospital bed that day... i saw a cross on the wall at the foot of my bed and i decided to have a little chat with my maker... and that i did.... i have to say at this point i was feeling a lot selfish as the pain was so great and i was so sick ... i just wanted it over and a feeling washed over me that my 14 year old still and home and my older girls and my husband would all survive in the hands of God .. he was perfectly capable... the feeling i experienced was peace.... i was so thankful to have had that talk... and i just talked to him like i am to you right now... and i said.. if you want me to fight this you better give me a sign because i am ready to go on with this and get it over with ... i'm tired and sick of it all... and i just want it over... so i'm telling you i wont take another needle in my body anywhere ( i had been stuck 16 times in a row them trying to get access) ... i said if you want me to fight... fix this port and make it work so they can get access and get me what i need... about 10 minutes later i lay there with tears in my eyes... the priest had already visited me and the surgeon who inserted my port burst through my door and said "i did not spend 4 1/2 hours in surgery doing a 1 hour and 15 minute job and have my work fail... WE WILL MAKE THIS PORT WORK .. and he did... so i fought... and i'm alive still 3 years and another mastectomy later.... it seems not fair... you go through a range of emotions that only you and others who have or have had cancer can understand.. you will experience anger in the most magnified extreme anyone can any imagine ... and that is ok... IT IS OK.....so today the only thing i can say to you is seek God in his word for the "peace that passes all understanding " ... just you and him and ask if he wants you to fight...if you are not saved i can only suggest you ask Jesus to take control of your life because at this point you are realizing that we have NO control.... it's all in his hands... ask him to send the comforter to you and to show you in his word all that will support what he says to you..... there is not one person on this earth that can add one second to his life ... Matthew 6: 27"Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?" ....my prayers willl be with you and i will count you amongst my friends and brothers and i pray that you will take encouragement from this small token of my love for you and your family in giving you the "secret treasure" that was so generously given me ....God's mercy and grace that comes from the blood of Jesus Christ my savior....remember one thing...you are blessed because you are in thought of what is in front of you... most people never think about it at all... and yet "the monster death" can swallow any of us at any time...to those who are saved... to die is gain... lots of love...whiplash's mother in law

good luck man stay strong, well im not sure if you have lung cancer but my grandpop had it, and it sounds almost exactly like your case. Any way his got real bad but he kept hanging on and it slowly got better and better until there was none. It's been about 5 years since he had it

You are in my prayers!! I can only imagine the ups and downs you feel the wins and losses of daily life. My wife and I often think about what we would do if knew the day how our lives would have been different. It is amazing how quickly your focus changes when you think in that light.

The irony of this is I just read your story and my friend at work died last night of a massive heart attack......his wife said he just ran 2 miles before work yesterday. Our grandmother passed away in December and my bosses wife just came back cancer free from Mesothelioma in Sept. Maybe life is preparing me for something?

Lots of tears today.......and to see you so young with so much more life to live have to go through this seems unfair.

My only advice is to be around the ones you love, keep your eyes on the Lord, and know that you are loved.

Continually praying for you!! You sound like you have a awesome mother-in-law very inspiring and faith building experience you shared!!

I used to be able to relate to your situation (remember my brain tumor issue?), but now I can't possibly imagine what you're going through.

Stay strong. Never give up.

Good luck and best wishes.

Keep us posted, man.
