Risin Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Good luck, and god bless Campy. I will pray for you and the family. You have a great attitude, and that will go a long way in beating this. It's what has kept my brother alive, long after Roswell gave up.
#89 Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 You better fight off this crap and be at the opener. Best of everything.
Arkady Renko Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 My thoughts and prayers as you go through this, Campy.
Golden Wheels Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 You better keep harassing us here Campy. This place wouldn't be the same if you didn't.

Campy Posted July 25, 2005 Author Posted July 25, 2005 UPDATE: Pathology results back. I'll let you surf on over to my blog to read the details, but I'll say it's VERY GOOD NEWS! I'LL SEE Y'ALL IN SEPTEMBER!!!!
Dan Gross Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Let us know when you update your blog! Hang in there... 389491[/snapback] The nice thing about blogs is that most (including Chris') support RSS, which allows for automatic notification in a number of ways when he updates his blog. Over-simplified, but read up (if you have Mozilla, you'll see a little orange icon at the bottom-right of the browser when you're there...click it to setup a "Live Bookmark"...also check for extensions here). Not discouraging Campy from providing updates here, but just providing info to others who may not be aware of this feature.
rovey1961 Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Campy Good to hear you will not have to fight both lymphoma and melanoma at the same time, one is MORE THAN enough! Just to give you a bit of a heads up, I was Rituxan last summer 4-week course once a week, the first one will knock you on your ass! I was given an 30 min IV of something to limit the side effects AND 50mg of benadrl, i was flying for the 1st hour then took a nap and I was 1/2 done with the first treatment. The successive treatments were not as bad but they were still worse than I remember chemo to be the first 2 times I went though it, must be because I'm over 40 now and not 9/10 like the first time As Jimmy V used to say "don't give up! DON'T EVER GIVE UP!" John

I don't mind discussing or talking about my cancer, but I don't want to be the guy who walks into a room and everyone has that "Do we ask him or just let him tell us?" thing going on. It already happened at 3 parties I went to over the 4th of July weekend and it's kinda' uncomfortable, probably more uncomfortable for others than for me, but uncomfortable all the same. While I really do appreciate the interest and level of sincerity that my TBD friends have shown, I'd rather not post more LAMPs about it. I don't mind being the center of attention, but not for those types of reasons. I'll always accept good thoughts and prayers, but I'm just not one that likes to be fussed over If you're interested, I'd love to share how things are going (hence the blog), but at the same time, I don't want it to throw it in people's faces via LAMPs.
Pete Posted July 25, 2005 Posted July 25, 2005 Go Campy! We are all praying and pulling for you. Please keep us updated. Kick its ass!
