The end of the road...

[unstable bob gable]

I haven't been around here in a long time due to real life issues, so I figured I'd drop a very sad update. My wife has been fighting cancer for over 2 years now, and a tumor was just found in her bowels. She's too weak for surgery, and isn't stong enough for more chemo. She has wasted away to less then 100 lbs, and all that can be done for her now is to up her meds and let her go in peace a/o a lot of pain. She will be moved to a hospice soon, and it's just a matter of time.

I want to thank Anti Rice Guy Nick and Hardcore Z Paul for the fund raising efforts they put forth, and to all who contributed. That cash helped keep the lights on and gas in the car and such.

I also want to tank Bad Chevelle Jon and Anti Rice Guy Nick for continuing to keep in touch with me. It is a bright spot to get a call or text and be able to maybe escape reality for a couple of secs with some car chat or to have someone who shows some concern and I can let out a bit with them.

And I also want to say how disheartening it is that there are so many people who can't return a simple call or text, or reach out once in a while. I know everyone has life issues of their own, but come on...5 mins for a phone call or text? I know plenty of people who have all the time in the world to be on these boards, but no time to help out a fellow car broh with just a kind word or two. I know a lot of people are turned off by my "say it like I mean it" attitude, but that's how I roll.

That's all I got for now. I got to get over to the hospital before I head off to work. I'm probably going to be on here looking for some help or views with some things, so if the "sounds of silence" can be put aside for a minute I would like to get some advice or such. I know there are a lot of smart people around here. So, help a broh out if he needs it, OK?

Later,

[TAdan]

Hey Bob, sorry to hear about your wifes condition. I sent you an email about dealing with a similar situation recently. All the best.

[NastyEllEssWon]

This is pretty crap man, I feel for your situation. I lost my fiance about 5 years ago and not a day goes by that I dont think about her. It cuts pretty deep man.
Theres nothing I can offer you to make you feel any better, so I'll just leave you my empathy. :(

[coolmanvette75]

Wow Bob I am so sorry to head this. You and your family will be in my prayers. Just keep your head up man.

[unstable bob gable]

She's still alive, but so doped up she can't talk and is not really aware of whats going on. I just hold her hand and read the Bible to her. I just wish God would take her home already.

[OG]

It's heartbreaking to read this thread, both of you are in my thoughts and prayers

[edpontiac91]

She's still alive, but so doped up she can't talk and is not really aware of whats going on. I just hold her hand and read the Bible to her. I just wish God would take her home already.

You are one of the strongest people I know of. Your faith has got to be tested and it seems that you are passing the grade. Try to remember the good times and know that when she is gone, that the pain and suffering will also be just a memory and the happy times will shine through.

[86ta-adf]

Stay strong :/

[WayFast84]

Bob, stay strong and keep on kicking ass. If you still have my number and need anything don't hesitate to call.

[3.4 grape of wrath]

Sorry to hear about all the pain your wife and you are going through.
I just lost my son to a motorcycle accident 6/16/12. We were very close and just had a father and son dinner for father's day two days before his passing. I was devastated to hear the news about my son but a peace came over me which I read about in the Bible, a peace that surpasses all understanding. I can't explain it but I know my son is with the prince of peace JESUS and that is what gives me so much comfort in my heart.
My prayers are with you and your family. May the same peace be with you.

[unstable bob gable]

Thx to all. As of this moment Ginny is still in this world, and she is being moved to hospice. My sister is coming down today, so that will be a nice respite from everything. Oh well, back to the grind...

[chrisfrom nj]

3.4 sorry about your son bob are they sending a nurse to your house or are they taking care of her in the hospital

[unstable bob gable]

3.4 sorry about your son bob are they sending a nurse to your house or are they taking care of her in the hospital

She is going to be cared for at her sister's house. Her sister is a doctor so she will have the best of care. Plus it is close by so I can get there quickly.

[Tru2Chevy]

Wow Bob, so sorry to hear about this turn for the worse. At least her final moments will be in a familiar place that is easy for you to get to rather than a strange hospital room. Saying a prayer for you and your entire family.

- Justin

[JL8Jeff]

[The Fixer]

Wow Bob, I'm so sorry to read this. My wife is a hospice nurse up here in North Jersey, so I know they will do everything they can to keep your wife comfortable and peaceful. Hang in there - you're one tough man, and your faith will pull you through it all. God Bless!

Bob,
I don't know your family/friend situation, but I've found grieving together to be the easiest thing during times like these. Keep your faith strong during this trying time, and know she's in a better place now. I'll include you both in my prayers this evening. I'm sorry.

[bandit88]

Sorry to hear Bob.

Your family are in my thoughts!

[j0n]

This is terrible to hear Bob. I know I am one of those who should be admonished for my failure to reach out during your tough times. I'll be out of the state for a week, but when I get back I'd like to take ya out for a burger somewhere. I know it won't make anything better, but at the very least might be a welcome distraction. :(
