I found a quiet place in life and said a few extra prayers for you Ed.

Hang in there man. I'm thinking about you.

Maybe look into getting some real pot? It would certainly help the appetite

Ed. Just left the sanctuary after an early morning prayer session for you. Hope you are at peace. Keep pushing forward. God is always with you.

Keep fighting Ed, we're all here to support you as much as we possibly can.

Keep fighting Ed.... we are all behind you...

Ed, so sorry to hear about your latest setbacks. I really hope you beat this once and for all, but know one thing, you have touched many here with your words and spirit. You have the spirit of Bushido in you and it is inspiring to all of us. Get well my friend, but even if you don't never doubt if you mattered, you did to 100s of people, many you never even met. And to me as well.

Damn Ed. I'm sure one of us on here would get some appetite increasing substance to you if you say the word.

And nearby, just sayin'

Yup, I don't live far from you Ed. Say when and you'll have more indica than you could possibly smoke.

I have very bad news. My blood tests had terrible numbers and my body is just worn down while my liver is getting ever worse. I can't handle more treatments and I am getting hospice care. I have two or three weeks left to live.

I want to thank all of you so much for the prayers, support and love. It has made a difference. My final battle awaits and I will win because the cancer dies with me and I am the one who will kill it.

:( you are in my thoughts

You put up a good fight, Lonewolf Ed. Let them drug you up as much as necessary now and find peace.

You have been an inspiration to us all, the lounge will bear your name in pride remembering your struggle and bravery. You have had an amazing journey through this crazy thing we call life.

I can only hope when my time comes I can face it with the grace and courage you have displayed here for all to see. I am so sorry, no words can properly express the depths of my personal sorrow. I know you have lived well and your actions discussed here in this thread have inspired many to contemplate their own mortality and life choices. It has helped me focus on what is important and meaningful in my life. Thank you for that.

I hope others will come forward and let you know what watching your battle has meant to them. It is a hard thing to do, we are after all men and this is not our nature. I love you man and you will be sorely missed.

I will make you this promise. If the Chiefs ever win the superbowl while I yet live, I will pour a separate drink and place it next to me, in your honor.

Damn. So sorry to hear, Ed. I hope you can be as comfortable as possible and can be at peace. Keep on fighting.

I am so sorry to hear this. I cannot thank you enough for your bravery in freely sharing your journey over these past years.

I am watching one of my colleagues who has been a great friend, supporter and mentor to me progress through the stages of a fatal disease. He is man who has impacted thousands of people over a 50+ year career and is now staring his own mortality in the eye. It is hard for me to accept. He has led a full life full of wonderful relationships, meaningful contributions, and doing what he loved every step of the way. No one could ask for a better life. But even at 82 years old his appetite for life isn't close to being satiated. It is never enough.

I will keep you in my thoughts daily, Ed.
