Cancer sucks

A friend of ours recently was diagnosed with prostate cancer. As you can imagine it was shocking and devastating news. Michael is going to try to fight this and do everything possible to avoid the drastic chemo or surgeries. They have a blog here

Michael Perry - Healthy Living | alternative treatments for prostate cancer

and in it his partner Maureen tries to update their progress.
Any thoughts and prayers are appreciated

John, I am sure this is OK to post this, if not I'll edit it, thanks




They have a funding site setup to help raise the money needed for treatment in Mexico that would have a good chance of him beating this.
If you can take a look, it is most appreciated. they have a ways to go to meet their goal.
Michael Perry's cancer fund by Maureen Harrison - GoFundMe

THANK YOU ALL!

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Best wishes to your friend Michael. I recently got the same news about a lifelong friend. I am hopeful my friend has a shot. They are at least going after it. I have know others they just made comfortable for their final days upon diagnosis. All the best
