Although I dont recognize alot of people here now greetings to all ....
last time I posted was some time ago....was in the middle of a nasty divorce etc but generally everything else was great, most of that still stands. I have a fantastic girlfriend, we have a beutifull home and everything that goes with that. My business still seems to be doing great and I am currently two steps away from a deal with a rather famous coffee house that will make my grand kids rich.....However those of you who know me remember that I have always said when things seem to be to good ....duck cause your about to get wacked in the side of the head.....
Three weeks ago I was talking and laughing with my ex wife and both of us were enjoying the fact that dispite the nasty divorce we found some common ground and it was clear that the two of us had finally found our own happeness. This was great for me to see as all I ever wanted for her was to be happy...with or without me. She got herself a nice little home (no mortgage) didnt have to move the kids to a new district and her business was doing fine but most importantantly she could do whatever she wanted when she wanted....until last week
I got a call a week ago Friday from her asking if I could take the kids for a couple of days as her docter was admitting her into the hospital for a precautionary pnemonia treatment. This I found odd as in the 19 years we were together I dont think she has had anything more than the sniffles. Of coarse I took the kids and carried on...
Two days later I recieved a phone call from her best friend saying that one of her lungs had collapsed and the other was on the way and that wasnt all......she was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer which had spread to her lungs and to of all things her liver......
What can I say ..... liver cancer is the fastest killing cancer there is....could be as soon as 6 weeks.....
The incredible irony of the story is that my girlfriend is in charge of the cancer treatment facility here in town and my ex will be directly under her treatment.
At the minute we are just trying to get our three sons ready for the battle in front of there mom and try to make them understand that there is no cure for what she has just maybe some extension to her life...... a year is absolute max but highly unlikely.
It often takes a tragidy to put things in perspective but I would like to take this oppertunity to tell you all to hug your loved ones , respect the people around you and try to live a good life .....for it can be takin from you so quickly.
If there is anything I have said or done in the past to anybody here or anywhere else for that matter , I would like to extend an apology and wish everyone here a good life....those of you that I did know here all deserve it.
Use this story to help yourselves keep things in perspective, in this busy world we often get distracted by work, money, desires etc. etc......step back for a minute and have a look around I am sure you will see some good out there.
Be part of that good while you can
