I just want to start out by saying I usually don't get to much into my personal life, butI was having a small tenderness in my left side for about 3 weeks and me being the big tough guy I refused to have it checked out. Well I finally told her if it didn't go away by last monday I would goto a doctor. Well needless to say I went to the doctor on Monday. I then had to go and have a ctc scan done on Thursday, and was nicely informed on Friday I had a mass on my left kidney. Well now today I was scheduled with a specialist and was informed that the mass is 9cm x 7 cm x 6 cm and that the kidney has cancer in it, So they told me by the end of the week I will probably be in surgery to have the kidney removed because that is all that is infected.

So I guess i am saying if you have problems don't wait to long and get checked out. And if for some strange reason something bad happens I love ya all like family and god bless the Green Bay Packers.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

That's a pretty good sized tumor. Didn't you have any other warnings like bloody urine? Anyway, there's on HBO called Vice and they ran a special on new ways to treat cancer. So if the doctor wants you to do chemotherapy, ask him about virus injections instead to treat the cancer instead. Chemo absolutely sucks. God bless you, buddy!

Well what the doctor told me that the cancer is only on the one kidney and once they remove the kidney it should be all clear. I am joking around and all the normal stuff but ya I am scared shitless because I used to always joke around ad say if I got it who cares, I will just live my life to the fullest but now its a tad different when it actually happens to you. I will try posting a picture of it if I can get it off the disc.

Plus hell thats why god gave you 2 kidneys in case one goes bad :)

you can see the tree shaped kidney on the right, thats the good one on the left you can see the growth on it.

Sorry just venting helps keep my mind from thinking negative.

When they took Mia's thyroid, she didn't have any chemo either.

Wow.....it's never easy when you get shocking news like that. My wife bugged me to see the doctor 6 years ago, and I ended up with the 6 heart blockages and open heart surgery. So yes, listen to the woman!!!
You are in God's hands, my friend! Put your faith in Him, and all will be well!
Hang tough! Your Packer "family" is here for you!

TheKanataThrilla (17h) : NFL Network is broadcasting the game tonight, but not in Canada. Not sure why as no local television is showing the game.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Sure does feel like site is more snappy

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : I thought that was the Lions OL

Mucky Tundra (6-Aug) : Travis Glover placed on IR; seasons over for him

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in
