prayers to you and your family

I'm very sorry to hear this. I wish I could say something profound, but just wanted you to know that people out there care.

Prayers sent for you


Having fought testicular cancer twice. I know how you feel with sharing your story. Best of luck to you

Beachbummer,

Thank you for sharing your plight with all of us. If you have convinced one person on here to get an exam early and often, you have done well. This my friend, could be part of God's plan for you...to get your story out and touch the lives of others. I will continue to keep you in my prayers and wish you the best.

I currently await the results of my PSA screening results. Thankfully, I am allowed an annual physical with the option of full blood/urine labwork. Some people think this is the way a large corporation may "weed-out" employees. I have a co-worker who, last year, was very thankful for the PSA screening.

Hey Todd,

You keep hanging in there and fighting your best day to day.

My family and I have been keeping you in our prayers, and you let me know when you are ready to get back on the water to chase some redfish this summer or we'll shoot some early geese come September...if you are up to it.
You give me a call whenever you can.

Prayers to you and your family.god is in control and like my dad always said keep your knees dirty..

Does anyone see or hear from Beachbummer outside of this site? I haven't seen him on in a little while, and I'd like to know that he's doing ok.

I am doing ok just had a 6th infusion yesterday, and just finished my 25 strait radiation therapy 2 weeks ago. Needless to say I have been week. I will more than likely have 2 more infusions next week. I have had so far 49 radiation treatments. 6 infusions and 10 days off and on in the hospital. the last time I was in the hospital my friend came down from Charlotte and I took him fishing, with the mud motor in the ocean talk about a place for a fish out of water. The ride beat me to death and the pain was horrible. I am still on here just tired I have my good day and bad days if you need to get a hold of me also look up Joe Guide he is a friend. sorry for not being on as much I have just had some trouble and hunting season has not even started.

No apology necessary, just thinking about you is all. I hope today is a good day, and thanks for touching base with us!

how are u beachbummer?????

Wow..

I got a good report Tuesday. my PSA has fallen some more, and my red blood cell count is stabilizing. I am still weak and these cold fronts and storms are kicking my but. my doctor even gave me the green light to ride bike stationary my balance is to bad to ride my mtn bik. and I took a nasty fall in the mountains Trout fishing. I got to fish about 5 minutes before falling. The doctor also said the weight loss was not a problem right now he wanted me to loose a little more anyway. I dont think its a problem either the nurses grabbed me the other week and would not let me go without a hug. that was in the radiation dept. It was a moral booster to say the least. oh one more thing. the hospital coordinator told me if there was anything I needed to let him know joking I said I need a handicap ramp to get into the house. it was all I could do to get up the steps. this past Monday they came and built a deck with a ramp on our house. God is real and works through many different channels. I am so thankful I have a family outside of my family I can talk to you guys always lift me up your thoughts and prayers are inspiring, and they help me make it through some tuff times to say the least. I would like to thank each of you for your concerns..

That's is a awesome report man glad to hear u are getting better and things are going ur way man. Will keep the prays going for u and ur family. Keep ur head up boss and have faith it is crazy how strong it is.

BB, that's great to hear! I know you're still having a relatively tough time, but hearing your positive attitude in your words is inspiring to say the least. I hope to meet you one day.

Keep fighting, it's almost time to do some waterfowlin'!!!

That's awesome brother, you keep fighting! Never ever ever give up !!!

That's great I'm extremely happy to hear things are turning for the better for you. Your faith and strength is truly an inspriation to me and everyone else. Keep fighting man, I hope to hear of more good reports in the end. If there's anything at all we can do, don't hesitate to ask.

Praying for you and your family.

Coming from a family that has fought cancer and won, I know what it feels like for your family. Your in my prayers.

Dang Beach....I really feel your pain as I also fought a long hard battle with Prostate cancer. So far i am winning the battle but there are some serious scars. The most improtant thing is to keep your personal faith, and know, really know that we all love you from the deepest parts of our hearts and souls as does God above. We pray that you will be given relief from the worry, pain, and unknown and that you will overcome this cancer by keeping a positive attitude and trust in God.

Remember too that each of us is always here to lend an ear when you need it.

Love you man,

Curl

Just wondering how you making out, Beach? Getting ready for the season?

x2.. How is things going man?

right now they have me doing more radiation BUT I have some good news well to me it is. I was diganosed last October, and was given 2 months to live. well they did a bone scan Monday and the radiation doctor said the cancer was only a little worse than when I first came there. well that was last March, and the doctors still had not found anything that was working. The oncologist worked until late July before he found something that worked its called Zitiga the first month my PSA went from 295 to 169 the 2nd month if fell again just not as much it went down to 153. up until that point I had not had a drop in my PSA for 2 months in a row, so I am very pleased. I am having trouble with these cold fronts coming through they are making life ruff, but they are working on that to. The bone scan showed where the cancer is and yes it looks like I've been shot with a shotgun, but it did not look as bad as the first 1 at least the cancer was in less places. Last year it was all over and in very small spots this time it was in fewer places and larger spots. radiation doctor says its easier to treat. the places I can fell it at have not been treated yet so thats a plus we can zap em out.

Guys thank you for your thoughts and prayers. I lean on them hard every day, so please don't forget me.

Thanks for the update and glad to hear that you are giving 'em hell. God bless you and your family.

I'm very happy to get a good report from you, Beach! I'm clearly no doctor, but this positive, upbeat, and matter of fact attitude you've had all along has to be doing some good too. I can tell you that your struggle has already taught me a lot. I really do enjoy getting your updates, and I wish you all the best! I'd really appreciate the opportunity to shake your hand one day, but until then, stay strong, brother.

Good to hear from you Beach...you're still in everyone's prayers!

Glad to hear the good report Beach.. Your an extremely strong individual for dealing with this the way you have, and with the attitude youve had.. You've actually helped me in alot of ways as well, so for that I thank you.. I too hope to have the opportunity to shake your hand one day!

You're in my prayers Beach, stay strong, God bless you!

Todd,

I know there is comparison to what you must feel, but you must stay strong and never give up. Always remember the good day's. Me and my family will pray for you.

Good luck during early teal. I admire you for your strength you put in your posts. As you know you have given everybody who reads these posts a reason to thank god for everything we have. Many prayers for you and better days.....and some dead ducks in a few weeks. Have a good one sir.
