Looks like Ken hasn't been around for a while. Any word on how he is doing? It sounded like things were going pretty good last I remember so hopefully that is still the case.

Don't know. He's probably still around, moderating.

When I checked his profile earlier to see if I just hadn't remembered seeing him, he hadn't been around since the 18th.

It was about the 18th when I talked to Ken on the phone. He was once again fighting back from a bout of being very weak but said he was feeling much better.

Steve is correct, I am around and moderating, mostly in the background.

My lung cancer battle is going extremely well. The tumor on my right lung is now non existent and the one on the left lung is shrinking according to the latest CAT scan 3 weeks ago.

I lost a considerable amount of weight during this battle (which I sure couldn’t afford, as those who know me will attest). My appetite has returned and I am slowly gaining that weight back. My energy level has increased an order of magnitude so that I was even able to enjoy “happy hour” with some of my old crony buddies at Applebees yesterday :) :D :rolleyes: .
<O:p


So: I’m back beware!!

Good to hear, Ken.

Yeah, I definitely know you're there, as the moderator log can attest, you still have the record for the most "moves" and "edits".

Great news, Ken. Glad to see things improving so well.

Your needing to gain weight reminds me of a few years ago when I was in a similar position...I'd lost about 20 pounds after a hospital stay, and was actively seeking to gain it back. One day in the checkout line at the supermarket, LOML was reading the calorie counts of the different things in the cart, saying things like "great, this one's got 1500 calories per serving, and you always eat two servings anyway", when the lady in front of us turned around and jokingly said said to me "I hate people like you". ;)

Welcome back -

Keep up the good fight Ken. I know what your going through, lost a BIL in Jan 04 watched it eat him up from thanksgiving 03 on. :( Almost one year later to the date his son in law was diagnosed with throat cancer. Ted's been lucky and now a little over a year later thers no sign of his cancer.
