    Jason,

    My heart goes out to your and your family. I'm so glad she passed away "peacefully while asleep". I saw the picture associated with her funeral service. Margi was a very beautiful person to look at. From what you've said, I'm sure that pales in comparison to her kind heart. Heaven gained a new angel.

    I've been away from MA for several weeks assisting my youngest daughter with law school applications, so I apologize for the late response. As a side note, my daughter was accepted to her #1 choice (University of Miami School of Law).

    Good luck, my friend. Try and get some sleep.

    Grandpa [my dad's dad] smoked cigars and a pipe...died at 88 y/o. My dad [an MD who shudda known better] smoked ciggies and died of Black Lung and other breathing complications due to his inhaling. I smoke cigars and I do not inhale...just puff and puff.

    I don't drink, exercise by walking the dog, and doing the yardwork that curse all homeowners. I could lose some weight, but have not been told to do so, nor has the cardioguy suggested that I give up the stogies, so here I stand...facing the great unknown with my faith in God, my family and friends...both in M/A and around.

    Looking at my family history, I can see dementia and possibly worse on the distant horizon, so I live each day, thankful for all that God and my doctors have provided me.

    Sorry, Jason...this is not my intention to steal your thread. My apology.

    Hey Jason, don't worry, we'll keep sending our prayers and pray the chemo does the trick. I know we all will enjoy adding Margi's name to the cancer survivors list soon!

    In the meantime, make every damn moment count and enjoy each others company!

    :cornut: UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Chemo starts day after tomorrow(Wed 26 Sep 13). The Oncologist is a very nice and experienced Doctor who is well known, well liked, and has a very good reputation in the community. Margi and I are well pleased with him. The pancreatic chemo is known for its low side effects which pleased Margi. The Doctor told us how it was and did not offer false hope which is how Margi wanted to hear it. Expect the worst but hope for the best(a Miracle, they some times happen). Thank you all for the Prayers, Good Vibes, and Positive Thoughts.:Thumbsup:

    Jason

    Glad to hear the first chemo session went well. Jason. Hang tough, follow your normal routine as best you two can, and enjoy life despite everything. Day by day, my friend.

    :cornut: Actually that's a very nice thing to post, it will make her laugh. For all the other MINIacs, Sherman and Denison(and their high schools: Sherman Bearcats and Denison Yellow Jackets) are side by side rival sister cities in North TX. Every year at this time the High Schools play a(football) 'grudge match' for the honor of possession of the coveted 'Silver Ax' for a year. High school football and college ball for that matter, are taken very seriously
    down in TX. Now y'all know the rest of the story.

    Again, Thank You Every One,
    Jason

    Jason that's a great story and thanks for the humor injection. Sorry to hear of the accident, but at least he's still in one piece. I've seen a MINI as a police car, a fire vehicle (of sorts at the Olympics) and now an ambulance..... Awesome job Doc!

    Ongoing prayers for something better than what's happening right now. Anything.

    Platitudes and best wishes, no matter how well intentioned, are worthless right now, I know. Stay strong for Margi. Hold her close.
