Any news on SirSkinki? I gave a donation a couple of days ago but I haven't heard anything yet. The donation total hasn't changed with my donation.

I think they went on a 2 week vacation to canada as one last wing ding, but I'm not sure when they'll be back. As far as site updates, Brad and Cathy with whom he's visiting is doing that, I'm sure they will get it all updated when the vacation is over.

Thanks all . This is a site that I was unaware of my buds even setting up till I had gotten to Canada . Brad and his wife Cathy showed it to me then..I must say I was a might shocked to see folk rally round and showing support . What he's doing is updating as he's on, and sending the money to my paypal account . He's a stand-up man...I'm not really used to help , but after the wife talked with me on the subject it has really touched me deep down ...I've checked the link you left as well catman , thanks .

Ok folk...I had a small out-patient thing done today to try and get a perspective of what and how far the cancer is gone. They done a lung biopsy and said that there is a bit of good news there , if you can call lung cancer good news that is.......anyhow , from going down my throat with the endoscopy they now say that the cancer on the lungs is just one spot about the size of a silver dollar...so that's the early stages . The bad thing they've found today is I also have two spots of cancer on my vocal cords . I now have to see a new specialist for that and see if he thinks they can possibly cut it out before they proceed with treatment of the the lungs....seems they want my strength up as high as can be for that if that's the case .....anyhow , just thought I'd keep you all informed......

Hi Skinski

I am so sorry to hear this. But today, doctors can do wonders plus the new drugs they have for building up your strength, all should go well. I will keep you in my prayers.
