Hi guys and gals.

I am sorry that I haven't been on much lately. As some of you know my wife had lung cancer, notice I said had. She had a mild stroke on April 12th. After that she went through seven straight weeks of radiation therapy. Once a day, everyday. The last test came back that the cancer has almost disappered and is malignant. She got done with her radiation on Friday. That is fucking awesome.

This morning I was in my office on the computer and I normally get up an hour or so before her. Usually I will hear her and tell her good morning. Well this morning I heard a little noise and didn't think much of it. So I went into the living room about a half an hour later and she was laying on the floor and she was completely paralyzed on the right side. So I immediately called 911. And then helped her onto the couch. And then gave her an aspirin. The paramedics arrived within minutes. She had no feeling at all on her right side. Even when I left the hospital tonight she had no feeling in her right arm and couldn't move it at all. And June 5th is her 53rd birthday. That is tomorrow as I write this but it is today depending where you live. She will probably be ok with some therapy. I am crossing my fingers and toes on this one.

The doctors said that she had two strokes early this morning. It scared the living shit out of me. We have been together since we were 19. And I am the first to admit that I am a complete fucking wreck without her. A total puss. I depend on her so much it is really unreal. I guess I need to figure that out, because some day she might not be here. That is a hard one to deal with.

I really want to play more and I will when I get a chance. I just have to channel my thoughts towards my wife right now. What a hell of a birthday present for her.

I just had to vent as I am setting here alone. I am glad I have my XI family. You people mean the world to me. Love you guys.

Bush, I am so sorry that you and her are going through so much and I can understand exactly how you feel.  I hope all will be ok and that she will recover properly.   IF SHE IS SMOKING THE E CIGS, THEN GET HER TO STOP...  I THINK THAT IS WHAT IS GIVING HER THE STROKES. If not then I am not sure.  Also, Wish her a happy birthday from all of us and tell her that we all at XI have her in our thoughts and hope she gets better.  And you remember that we are all here for you. If you are able to read this by the time her bday is here, then give her the best birthday you possibily can give her.  that will make her feel so much better.  We are here if you need us alright?  both of you hang in there and try to pull through.  God works in mysterious ways man.  And don;t leave her side.  Go back to the Hospital and be with her!   And make sure those doctors are doing there jobs correctly!   

 

 

I am very happy and amazed to see that you two been together since 19.  This is true love and i pray that for all of us who are married and love our wife's that we have a long lasting love relationship with our wifes like bush has with his.   Sir, I truly admire your true love for your wife.

Although I also sent a PM I wanted to post here to express my heart felt sympathy for the difficulties you are facing.

 

I found tremendous support from XI members and guests in my recent loss. I think you to will find support from your friends at XI.

 

As for gaming, in time you may find that gaming is a tool that can actually help get you through difficult times. Sometimes you will just need to "get away" with friends. Gaming is a good way to do that. You do not have to talk, just come in and pass time with friends you have made over the years. As I did, I think you will find tremendous support and respect from those who know what you are going through.

 

Take full advantage of XI, it helps reduce that "alone" feeling.

Best of everything!!!!!!!
