skonopa Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 My thoughts and prayers are for you. I hope, in the end, you can beat this thing. [:'(] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
formica Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Sometimes it's hard to come up with words to describe how one feels.... Keep your chin high and your family close and have some fun. Don't be so worried about what tomorrow will bring. Instead enjoy the moment and relive the past... I couldn't have said it better... lynnm, my best wishes and thoughts go out to you...

jt1stcav Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers, Lynn. As terrible as cancer is, it can be beaten if detected early...hope yours was. About 18 years ago my grandmom was diagnosed with colon cancer and had to have her entire large intestines removed. But she beat it, and today is 85 years young, so miracles can (and do) happen! Keep the faith, and know that your fellow forum members are right here for you no matter the outcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynnm Posted October 11, 2005 Author Share Posted October 11, 2005 Thanks for the kind words folks! In any event I have no intention of simply lying down and dying any time soon. With luck I'll be around to raise a little hell for some time to come. I think that the very anonymity of this forum makes it easier to disclose problems like this . Earlier today I told my best friend and he left here looking worse than I felt at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m00n Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 lynnm, I don't think there is anything I can say that hasn't. I wish you the absolute best of luck in your endeavor to beat this. You will be in my thoughts and prayers! God bless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3dzapper Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Lynn, As the others have said, you are a valued forum friend. I am very sorry to hear your news. Keep a good positive attitude and know that we are here for you. Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myhamish Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Hi Lynn, I've often imagined coming out to Calgary or thereabouts and hearing those Klipschorns that you dragged home from Pentiction.I still hope to make that trip and hear what all the fuss is about. Meantime, ditto to all the above comments and here's hoping and praying you can kick this thing in the butt and get on with the life you seem to enjoy so well. To you and your family - all the best.

Marvel Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 I think that the very anonymity of this forum makes it easier to disclose problems like this . Earlier today I told my best friend and he left here looking worse than I felt at that point. Lynn, When my wife posted the last bit of bad news on her blog, no one posted a reply for two days. Your friends who have to look you in the eye don't know what to say. You will be far more of a testimony to them than you can imagine. According to the stinkin' stats, my wife should already be gone, but yesterday we were laughing with her doctor, and eating dinner out and enjoying life. You must do the same. Cancer doesn't rule you. Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEAR Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 lynnm, Like Bruce said so well,people often dont know what to say when forum members have new like this.I am not going to say I will pray,I am not too religious but I will say keep your good outlook on life.You are a valued fellow Klipscher,and I wish you the best.

Cal Blacksmith Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 I have always enjoyed your posts. I am sorry this has become your lot. I have lost 3 grand parents to cancer and my father has prostrate cancer at the moment, so I have a little feel for where you are. Keep fighting the good fight as there has been so much progress with cancer in the last few years. You will also be in my prayers. Keep us up to date with what is happening.

SteelerFan Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 I recently lost my mother to complications from cancer, I don't want to see it claim anyone else. I'll do my part and pray for you Lynn and I'm sure you'll do yours and fight until you beat it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebes Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Sorry about your news, but let's see what Mark Twain himself has to say on this subject:: ..as far as being on the verge of being a sick man I don't take any stock in that. I have been on the verge of being an angel all of my life, but it's never happened yet. - Mark Twain, a Biography One should not bring sympathy to a sick man. It is always kindly meant, and of course it has to be taken--but it isn't much of an improvement on castor oil. One who has a sick man's true interest at heart will forbear spoken sympathy, and bring him surreptitious soup and fried oysters and other trifles that the doctor has tabooed. - Letter to Mary Mason Fairbanks Sounds like we better start cheering you up. I'll start working on a new opus, I'm thinking Craig and Neo on a raft heading down to New Orleans to see a new-fangled invention by that feller called Tom Edison, gramaphone I think he calls it. Until that's done, let us know your musical tastes and I'll send out a packet of goodies, perhaps some you haven't heard. I'm sure others would make a few offerings.. Can't let those Khorns get rusty while you're being poked and prodded by the doctors now, can we? A very dear friend of mine with a history of seriosly ill health ends all his letters with the phrase" Be Well" Be well, Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avman Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Lynn, thank you for sharing that info w/ the bb 'family'. I will pray for you and yours. Many times music has been a 'spiritual' experience for me, and the music I listen to now truly is a spiritual experience, so keep listening and enJOYing! avman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestonTom Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Lynn, That is very disappointing news. This must be a very anxious and frustrating time for you and your family. My prayers are with you. Best of luck, -Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shmoe Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Wow... that is all too familair with myself. All I can say is hang in there, keep a positive attitude...and it will be hard, because Chemo really messes with not only your body, but your mind. Keep your loved ones close & have faith my friend... I have been there & know it all too well. I'll pray for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbert Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Please try and maintain a positive attitude. I know 2 people that have beaten it, one is my sister. Maintain a solid frame of mind, and do your internet research, and ask your doctor lots of questions. I will keep you in my prayers, and look forward to continue reading your posts. Chin up, eyes straight ahead and keep moving forward. If you need anything from an ostrich you've never met, I'll do what I can. And thanks for the lead on the Fosgate tube processor.
