at some point it really does become less about you and more about who you leave behind. I'm scared of dying but it hurts thinking about being grieved!

i understand ya man.

goddamn it's pretty painful just reading that you're scared of dying. imean my first reaction is to think "oh stop talking like that" and then i think 'well gee it's really easy for me to say something along those lines isn't it?' and i start thinking about just how real and terrifying it all is and get a lil choked up. I'm still gonna have HOPE though bud, and although it sounds patronizing, i think you should too.

Don't worry Steel, I know youre grandparents would be feeling awful if you tell them, but I think NOT telling them will be worse in the long run. The thing here is that a chance that(not trying to say anything) you won't make it out alive, or in a let's say, good state. You can't lie to them forever because if you do not tell them now and they find out by themselves (idk how, maybe a sister, or someone tells them, the point being its prolly gonna happen) they are going to feel worse. And you're going to feel worse. I personally haven't been trough cancer but I lost My Mother, Grandfather, and my uncle to it. I know you are going through so really sick and deppressing shit man but if you can pull it off, at least you will manage to see your grandparents again

Maybe you can tell them that theres hope for you here in America? Believe me or not, grieving over someone being lost to cancer really, REALLY hurts.

I had a dream that steel called me on the phone. Very weird.

I hope everything gets better for you dude. There's not much I could say that hasn't been said, or would mean anything special so I guess I'm just crossing fingers for you man. GL

transfer you brain into new body

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.

i hope your blood tests turn out OK. As far as I can tell, you've fought through the worst of the disease, so as long as your markers aren't skyrocketing, you'll be fine.

Here's a little somethin for ya:

i'm guessing there's no universal cancer marker otherwise we'd all get annual scans, so this marker is for specifically the type of testicular cancer steel has, so if it's growing still that's a huge worry

that being said you spent a good 20 years or so growing it to the thousands, as long as you don't spend the next 20 years in chemo you've still got a decent life ahead of you

Hope that you get some good news soon, Steel. Try to stay positive. People who fight cancer do so continuously. I know I brought up my friend who had brain cancer/leukemia earlier in this thread. She fought it for like 3 years. Lots of mixed results -- there were several close-calls when she could have been negative (there was a point where her parents were about to pull her home on hospice and were short on money -- her older brothers stepped up and picked up a job at a grocery store when they were 13/14 to help support the family [had ][/had]). She kept fighting, kept staying positive. So hang in there, man. You'll knock it out, dude! Keep fighting and stay positive!

yeah cell division or whatever but still 67 to 78 in a month means you've got a bit of time yet, and it seems like you responded well to treatment

the way I explained it to sredni though is imagine it's a parabola and you're taking points. so it starts high, goes down, down, and then you see almost a level off, but it's probably because you missed the bottom.

and now it's going up.

I'm also staying as negative as possible to prep myself! blood test tues...
