Good luck to both of you. This is from a poem called "The Wasteland" and it tries to talk about the inexpressable - from a sojourner finding shelter under a red rock, to the light.


What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow
Out of this stony rubbish? Son of man,
You cannot say, or guess, for you know only
A heap of broken images, where the sun beats,
And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief,
And the dry stone no sound of water. Only
There is shadow under this red rock,
(Come in under the shadow of this red rock),
And I will show you something different from either
Your shadow at morning striding behind you
Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;
I will show you fear in a handful of dust.
Frisch weht der Wind
Der Heimat zu.
Mein Irisch Kind,
Wo weilest du?
'You gave me hyacinths first a year ago;
'They called me the hyacinth girl.'
—Yet when we came back, late, from the Hyacinth garden,
Your arms full, and your hair wet, I could not
Speak, and my eyes failed, I was neither
Living nor dead, and I knew nothing,
Looking into the heart of light, the silence.
Od' und leer das Meer.

Just stopping by to wish Chet well with his surgery tomorrow.

I'm still alive and (kinda) well. The "inards" aren't working right yet since the surgery, but the Dr said it will take a few weeks.

I have my consultation visit with oncologist next Tuesday.

Other than that, thanks to everyone for the continued support and well wishes !

My prayers are with you both- you guys are two of the main reasons these forums are so great. The prayers of a righteous man availeth much, and I come into agreement with you both that not only will you come through with flying colors, but you will have total healing. :D

I'm back from my Pre-Operative, Everything went fine. Next up is the surgery itself tomorrow morning.
I'll be out of here early in the morning so I won't have a chance to post. If things go as planned I will be home sometime after 4:00 tomorrow afternoon. I'll try to get a post in before closing tomorrow.

THANK YOU TO ALL FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND WELL WISHES!!!!!!!

Good luck, Chet! Prayers and mojo to both you and Mike!
My mom just got out of reconstructive surgery a couple weeks ago.
(she had breast cancer, but thank God that's all gone, she's doing fantastic)
Anyway, You'll be outta there and playing again in no time!
And Mike, stay positive. Strong faith that you're healthy, and feeling good are some of the best ways to kill cancer cells!
