abrupt end to tri season

[Starfish]

So that is that, we are now competing in the race of our lives. Christine

I have been running that race for almost ten years waiting for a liver transplant.

Bro in law had been at the hospital for two days and just got out. He has been diagnosed with colon cancer which has taken over at least 1/2 of his liver and may be in his lungs!

Prayers this morning for all of you, and your loved ones. Please use us here for venting and support!

A friend's DH was diagnosed 1-1/2 years ago with colon cancer that had spread to his liver. The docs predicted about 3 months to go, and that guy is not only still with us, but out biking and training, and supporting his wife's training for IM races, even sometimes during chemo.

The human body & spirit is amazing. Prayers for all of you!

Christine,

I'm so sorry. Try to stay positive and be good to yourself. Lots of thoughts and prayers will be with the two of you in the days ahead.

Zen and Spoke W, you will be in my thougths as well.

Thank you so much everyone for your posts, thoughts and prayers.

Zen - I can't imagine waiting that long for something to happen - just the two weeks we are waiting to go to Mayo seem like an eternity but I guess we all do what we have to.

Spoke W - please keep me informed about how your BIL is doing

Texas Mermaid - thank you so much for access to the CCC site

Right now DBF is feeling much better because of the pain medication but he is antsy to get going, get some answers and a plan.
