A Note from the Butcher of Sacred Cow Burgers [Prayer Request]

E-Mail Notice | 06/07/2004 | Sacred Cow Burgers

[Prime Choice]

Hello folks,

This isn't a notification of a new parody, but I felt this was a necessary note to send all the same. The long and short of it is this: I will be unavailable over the coming weeks and figured I should let you folks know why.

A little over eight weeks ago I was diagnosed with a rare form of pancreatic cancer; a type that affects only 3 people in 1 million. This type of cancer does not respond to chemotherapy, so the only treatment is surgery.

I will be hospitalized starting June 10th to have the largest (and hopefully *only*) tumor removed. Due to the location of the tumor, the doctors are pretty much going to have to open me up like a raw fish.

Understandably, I will be out of action for some time afterward. According to my surgeon, recovery will take six weeks at minimum. But -- with luck and the Good Lord's patient help -- I may be back at making merry sooner than anyone can guess.

I'd like to take this time to thank all of you for your interest in my work and the critiques, compliments and suggestions that many of you have sent my way over these past months. It's your enthusiasm that keeps me jazzed about doing political parody every chance I get. Your candor is a gift that I value greatly.

Best wishes to you all. I'll be back in touch once I'm able. Until then, I'll be fighting the good fight...just on a smaller scale.

Sincerely,

Jay D. Dyson

For some reason I'm thinking SUSHI! (It was that raw fish comment).

OK - lets start a betting pool - I think Prime Choice will be back posting within two weeks and I'll put a $10.00 donation on that. And if its sooner than that - I'll double it.

My prediction - By July 1st!

Here's hoping that it isn't as series as it could be... that news would be hugh.

Jay,
our prayers for you to have a speedy recovery.

[Cultural Jihad]

Praying for your quick recovery, Jay. The 'net won't be as humorous or creative place without you.

[Happy2BMe]

Jay D. Dyson - a.k.a. Prime Choice you know you and your work aver very very special to us and we all here appreciate you to no end.

Your political satire and humor smacks of cutting edge exposure of the worst the enemies of this nation have to dish out and your abilities to put these undesireables in their place is SECOND TO NONE!

From Jessie to Kerry to Osama to Chirac - you really bring on the heat in just the right amounts in just the right light at just the right time and always with perfect balance and silky-smooth impact.

Please know we are praying, interceeding, and asking Father God to send healing to your body and that you will be restored, refreshed, and renewed with a vigor, zeal, and fervor like never before.

Take these coming days and months to reflect on how precious life really is and how much we will be missing and anticipating your speedy recovery and return.

The very best to ya - each and every day until we see you back in PRIME FORM!
