Brother-

I confess, you can dedicate the pin in area 51 for me. Ive got my tin foil yarmulke fitted nice and tight.

Thanks for the update.

If there's still any room left for another pin in NJ, stick one in for me - near Somerville.

Best ---

Prayers for you from Portland, OR.
May God guide you and your doctors.

[Taxman]

Thanks for the ping and the update.

My prayers (from Springfield, VA), are with you and your family, MrConfettiMan.

You'll be back on the FReeper FRont lines before you know it!

[dansangel]

May God be with you. Prayers from a newbie in Norcross, GA. Just NW of Atlanta.

I'm slowly finding out, after a few gray hairs and some wrinkles, that it really doesn't matter how much I worry about something - that time could've always been better spent on something else. Beer Golf? How cool is THAT? I'm gonna look into qualifying for the pro tour...

I realize the journey ahead is a long one.

That's been my plan all along. Not a darn thing wrong with that!

Enjoy the holidays. There's an awful lot to be thankful for. The best to you and yours...

Still praying for a miracle. I am trusting and believing in the Lord to completely rid you of this tumor. I truly believe this. Keep us posted please. You are very special to all of us. God Bless you and your family.

If you ever find yourself coming to the Chicago area for treatment, you can count on me to provide a place of respite for you.

I don't live in Chicago, I live just outside of it. So if you need me, holler.

You continue to be in our prayers here my freeper friend. Hang in there!

[Teacup]

Oh yeah, praying for you in Virginia. Stick a pin there for me.

[maranatha]

I was so pleased to see your post today. My husband and I are continuing to pray for you and we are expecting miracles and a book. Have an especially lovely Thanksgiving and Christmas and put your trust in God. Two pins in Midland, TX

[FairWitness]

Prayers coming at you from Kirkwood, Missouri. God grant you the strength to continue your quest to beat this disease.

[jtill]

Stick a pin in Concord, CA - just east of SF.

Have long admired your "handle" and have you firmly enscounced on my prayer list.

Music therapy does wonders for the mind. Think what we music geeks call "consonant harmony" - Mozart, Bach, etc. from centuries ago, music from the 20's-40's in this century, even this music***. It has been documented to cause POSITIVE brain wave activity, as opposed to heavy metal, screechy music which causes negative brain wave activity.

You have always been one of my FR heroes, along with all your other DC FReeper brigade friends who've FReeped the CReep over the years. God be with you and we'll all be praying for you.

*** This group holds a special place in my heart as my husband is the conductor.

Please place a bold pin in the heart of McCordville, Indiana. And know that my prayer for you will be emanating from that point, and prayfully joined with everyone else's. Good for you MrConfettiMan. You are being proactive and the payoff will be tremendous. God Bless You sweetie and you beautiful wife. Remember the sing that inspired us all way back when, " Clinton's a Liar"? In my minds eye, I see you holding a sign saying " MrConfettiMan is a WINNER!"

[MinuteGal]

Put a pin in New Port Richey, Florida (right above Clearwater). You'll soon have so many pins, you'll have to switch to needles, yuk, yuk. God bless.

Er, make that McCordsville! Hehe

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

If you're willing to post your location with your reply, I'll be glad to stick a pin in there for 'ya.

Glenview, IL, just north of O'Hare Airport (northern burb of Chicago). Me and all my friends. I'll get my sister who lives in Wheaton (SW suburb) in on the act too :-).

If you're wearing your tinfoil hat, that's okay. I'll stick a pin near Area 51 for you. :)

HAHAHAHAHA! Keep up your sense of humor! It'll help you get through these tough times. But now that you mention it, I could name a few FReepers who'd qualify.......... (grin)

[duckbutt]

Stick a pin in for Reston Virginia. A cancer survivor who is praying for a cancer survivor......God is Good!

"Given how much research my wife and I are doing and how many questions we're asking, it's scary to think how many opportunities might not come up during discussions with our doctors simply because we haven't asked the right question"

I'm so glad to read your update....this is so true, and I think you should be both proud of yourselves for being such great advocates for YOU and all your options!

I was thinking about you honestly these last few weeks, and wondered how you were doing...I even pray for you at Mass on SUNDAYS and since I am unsure of your name I "think" Mr ConfettiMAN (GOD knows who you are) :)

I admire all your courage and effort and you are doing so many positive things, maybe if you save these threads you can write a book when you're cured, or keep them as a wonderful gift to show your children (someday) and hey even your grandkids!!!

Think positive and GOD BLESS YOU! :)

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

it's scary to think how many opportunities might not come up during discussions with our doctors simply because we haven't asked the right question. Ugh.

Oh so very true !!!!!!!! Thanks for the update. I am so pleased that you and your wife have done such in-depth research. It may be what makes the difference in the outcome of this problem. Praise God !!!!!!!

I will continue to pray for you and wish you a blessed holiday season focused on faith in the One for whom it is celebrated. I look forward to a positive update in the new year. God bless !!!!
