Cancer Procedure Monday

[gregprince]

About 18 months ago I received a diagnosis of stage 4 esophageal cancer. I was given about three months to live. I've now had 18 months of good health and have made the most of it. The doctor told me that the cancer had nothing to do with smoking, but this type is caused by the "modern diet". Smoking and drinking left me unscathed, eating is killing me. Tomorrow I have a procedure that I may not survive. When I get out of recovery I'll write. Just wanted to say, it's been great hanging out here. Greg

I just had a skin cancer removed that was a minor inconvenience. All I can say is with something more serious like yours, I hope you pull through and we hear from you again!

May God guide the surgeon's hands during this procedure, and may He deliver you safely through it, Sir.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph and dammit all to hell.
I'm the buster who accosted you yesterday afternoon at the KC Pipe Show with the, "Excuse me, aren't you Greg Pease?"
More importantly, I refuse to accept that the same man I visited with, who kindly acknowledged my drooling, simpering adulation, adoring comments, questions about the future (and I will never, ever share what you told me about your newest offering until it comes to market) and grateful appreciation about the voyage I've made through your product line is going to ground any time in the near future.
Greg, you and your medical team will be first and foremost in my prayers during the next few hours.
Play tough, pal, you've got too much left to offer.

My dad had a very similar surgery and did quite well with it. My prayers are with you.
