Noone has probably noticed but I've been laying low the last few months while i worked through a health issue. Well the verdict is in, and there is nothing else to work through.

Inoperable Pancreatic Cancer.

If I can make it through the new few weeks to be able to start Chemo, I've got a 50/50 shot at being around till the first of the year. (At least I'll find out of the Myans were right).

I just learned that today, and beleive or not, that is far better news than I was being given just late last week.

I'm barely 51, so this really kinda sucks. But, having time to get my affairs in order is better I suppose than just not coming home from work one day due to a traffic accident or something like that.

I 'll be posting a wiw for my Charger in a few weeks to help my Wife know what she can expect for it when the time comes.

There's no real point in my rant,except I needed to tell someone and I'm not ready to tell anyone at work until I have some things in order.
