Len, you are never alone. Your wife is in our prayers, too. We all care about

the two of you. God bless.

Hi, Len. Excuuuse me, but you cannot schedule your own

death. I believe that everybody is going to live as

long as they were destined to live, and nothing can

change that. But I also believe in prayer. God answers

prayer. When a doctor says only a few months or a

couple of years left, he is not God. He does not

really know. He (or she) is only guessing.

Yes, death is hard to talk about, and we always talk

about how to help ourselves or our loved ones, and

don't want to think about death. But talking about

death as the inevitable, with a resigned attitude,

will not help us. We have to remember there is always

hope.

Did you see the recent news of a vaccine for cancer of

the cervix? Is that not amazing? Yes it is. Everyone

has to fight this cancer and hang on as long as you

can. New procedures, techniques, methods, vaccines,

treatments, etc. can come at any time.

Len, I am glad that you come here and give us advice.

We count on your knowledge. We admire your courage.

You are an inspiration. Don't give up. Don't give up

hope.

Please watch this short clip with your speakers on. It

is tender and moving.

Hi Deb,

Call your son and tell him you are dying, then

tell him that he is dying, then explain that we are

all dying and not talking about it leaves it in that

dark closet that scares everybody. Talking about it

brings it out into the bright light and makes it

managable. The language of cancer is scary because

everyone assumes it belongs in the dark closet with

the words of death. They all need to be brought out

into the light so we won't fear any of them.

Talk about how the world will be effected by their

death. How does it feel to die?

I have death on my schedule for probably next year but

I look at it as a limit for all the things I need to

do. That's all it is.

Every second counts.

Hi Len:

Thinking about you today in that beautiful part of California in which you

live. You are so blessed to have the ocean in front of you. You have a

wonderful wife, a beautiful home, and a life of doing just what you always

wanted

to do. You have much to live for and I am happy to see you feeling more

positive.

Thank you Pat. It is beautiful out today but I can't

go out yet. I have to wait for the ground to warm up

so my feet don't get the cold prickleys. I also took

senokot this morning because I had not had a BM and

then I got diahrrea, so I'm just laying on the couch

looking at the email.

If I attach a photo to an email, in this group does it

show up? I suppose I could just send photos to

individuals.

Hi Len, I wanted you to know that your friend took his

personal time and answered my private thank you note to him. Have

enclosed his response for you to read. He seems quite a caring

person. I am glad you have friend like him. Love, Ingrid

Dear Ingrid:

Well, I'm a little embarrassed by your effusive praise. It's easy to

want to help Len because he's a nice guy and we go back a long way.

He's also good to be with. Thank you for caring about him, as well.

When he told me about your support, I was amazed. I know it makes

sense for people sharing a challenge to support each other, but you

have been a great comfort to Len, beyond mere support. I will keep

your health and well being in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you.

I am a friend of Len's who also has Colon Cancer. I wanted to

thank

you so much for helping Len to get the roof finsished. I have also

had

the same chemo regiment that Len has and it is so awful on you hands

and feet. The cool tempratures are just plain out diffucult to take

on

you skin.

We who all know Len through the cancer boards would like to Thank

You

from the bottom of our hearts for helping him. When he told us about

your great kindness it brought tears to my eyes.

God Bless YOU!!! Thanks, Ingrid

Yes, BEAUTIFUL song and Lyrics - they touched my husband and I - our favorite

Country song. We knew everyone on this board would take the same meaning from

them as us - have said it many times in this last year - " Jesus take the Wheel "

was on the Today Show last week and also in the Macy's Thanksgiving

Parade and performed it both appearances. I think she was also on the Country

Music Awards - maybe up for " Best New Arist " - She is 22 years old. I recommend

everyone buying this, no matter what genre of music you like - it crosses over.

Thanks so much :Len for finding the lyrics

Artist/Band: Underwood

Lyrics for Song: Jesus, Take The Wheel

Lyrics for Album: Some Hearts

She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati

On a snow white Christmas Eve

Going home to see her Mama and her Daddy with the baby

in the backseat

Fifty miles to go and she was running low on faith and

gasoline

It been a long hard year

She had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attention

She was going way to fast

Before she knew it she was spinning on a thin black

sheet of glass

She saw both their lives flash before her eyes

She didn't even have time to cry

She was sooo scared

She threw her hands up in the air

Jesus take the wheel

Take it from my hands

Cause I can't do this all on my own

I'm letting go

So give me one more chance

To save me from this road I'm on

Jesus take the wheel

It was still getting colder when she made it to the

shoulder

And the car came to a stop

She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat

sleeping like a rock

And for the first time in a long time

She bowed her head to pray

She said I'm sorry for the way

I've been living my life

I know I've got to change

So from now on tonight

Jesus take the wheel

Take it from my hands

Cause I can't do this all my own

I'm letting go

So give me one more chance

To save me from this road I'm on

Oh, Jesus take the wheel

Oh, I'm letting go

So give me one more chance

Save me from this road I'm on

From this road I'm on

Jesus take the wheel

Oh, take it, take it from me

Oh, why, oh
