Wow. I do not think I have ever been this legitimately concerned for someone I have never actually met. Sincerely wish you all the best Bingo/ D'Arcy. I truly value your msg board, and your message posts.

I didn’t hear what was said on the radio, does anyone have a quote? Would be interested to see if he even wanted it broadcast to the world?

First off a huge thank you to everyone, reading these eight pages was moving for me, but also for my wife and my father going through it from his place in BC.

It's an amazing feeling to be part of a community where you can hammer each other month in and month out, but when the gloves are dropped you have a lineup forming behind you.

My wife did an amazing thing putting Boomer in the loop because she could see I was putting the web site thing off in not letting everyone in on what was going on. I had to say something, but starting a post on your own health seemed like a pity party. Her reaching out, Boomer doing such a wonderful job got it out not only here but for the rest of my commodity trading world so there will be less questions asked from everyone with change that is sure to come.

The short of it? I'm lucky. Very very lucky.

They are treating me as a unicorn in that I have developed breast cancer which is extremely rare in men, but hereditary as it took my mother from me when I was 18. And a unicorn because I'm younger than most male cases, in fighting shape to battle it and I caught it very early. The mystical thing for me is how I caught it. We have a place in Windermere, but I grew up there in the summers with my mom, my best times as a child. I was out there in September doing some work in our house when I rammed some ply wood into my breast plate causing a searing hot pain through my body. That led to a lump and then an ultra sound a week after the Boomer/Warrener hockey draft. Without that injury I may have been much further along.

Today I'm 24 hours into chemo treatment number one and doing very well. My wife won't let me do a thing but she's brilliant in knowing just what I need when I need it steering me clear of having to toss up whatever I've eaten through the right drink, or getting air, or walking me around.

The bone scan, CT and MRI all came back negative (which is positive) so this is curable, and I will beat this.

How can I not with this army behind me.

Thank you all again.
