    I’m happy to go through it with another person. I’ve been getting guidance from my cousin, who’s riddled with cancer (does that fucker leave anyone alone?) and has done this form.
      I'm glad you have your cousin to talk it over with you. I wouldn't want to do it by myself. Paperwork and important decisions also never leaves anyone alone.

    Hey all, letting you know that I’ll be out of the hospital shortly and going home to hospice care. Just buying time now but no more treatment for the cancer itself. 

    It’s been a true pleasure knowing you all and I really appreciate all you’ve done to boost me up when I needed it. Thank you 🙂
  • Big love ❤️ to you.

    heartbroken for you and your dude.

    in reading this, I wondered what Chad might have said. At a loss right now. Will cruise through his posts to come up with something.

    I actually had a similar thought.  As long as people remember us fondly we remain here.

    i have been thinking about you. I am at a loss for words right now. I can only hope that if I ever face this kind of adversity I will be able to handle it with as much grace and humor as you have. You are a true inspiration :hug:

    I was thinking about you recently and wondering how you are getting on. You've been so strong and brave.  I dont know what else to say apart from being completely gutted.

    I haven’t been around in a while and I’m so saddened to hear your news. I, along with many others here, were hoping for a different outcome. I’m grateful that I have the opportunity to thank you for sharing your wit and humour over the years. 

    For however much time you have left, and this goes for us all, I hope that you are surrounded by love and laughter.

    Love and peace to you.

    Will you share you favorite song? Band?
    When I hear it or them I can be reminded of you.

    I wanted to reach out recently as you haven't been too active... was obviously hoping for better news than this. 

    I've enjoyed & appreciated our chats. Hope you & your man can find some comfort and do some good things with what you have left.

    Tons of love your way.

    I'm amazed at the grace you've exhibited while dealing with this. You are an inspiration, and this is such a cruel twist of fate life has dealt you. While still hoping for some kind of miracle, wishing you and Mr. Hedo peace and comfort through all of this.

    I haven't been able to comment as this type of journey is way out of my depth.

    All my best to you and yours.  It has been great interacting here and sharing various mutual interests.  Hoping for many more interactions.

    mickey, tough question! I would say Puscifer’s Dear Brother. I’m sure it’ll change as time passes.

    Our mutual appreciation for Carina will make it hard NOT to think of you when listening… You’re the only person I’ve come across who appreciates her as much as I do. ❤️

    Love it, Merk. You and my husband, for me. 

    It’s surreal knowing I may not be able to hear her very soon ☹️

    That would be surreal, hedo. If you want to talk about it, we're here to listen.

    I am really sorry to have to let everyone know that Hedo died this afternoon with her husband Dan, the love of her life, by her side. 

    Dan and I had a conversation this morning and he asked if I would be willing to let everyone here know when the time came, as he is not on the forum. I agreed but I had no idea that it would be so soon. 

    People may wish to make a donation to an animal shelter or pit bull rescue in Hedo's name, if you want to honour her in that way.

    Listen to some Puscifer this evening and think about our amazing, funny, fierce, and loyal Hedo. Goodbye for now.

  • Peace to all, hug your loved ones.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved
