Yeah, no worries Dave -- it's just another day.

One of my high-school daughter's friends asked her yesterday if she was worried about a test today, 'cause it's FT13th and all.

My daughter just said, "Oh, get real."

:)

my hubby bought a new truck today. Hope he makes it home in one piece. lol

Didn't even notice the evil date this morning....I'll be more careful this afternoon when I'm driving in town this afternoon. oooooooohhhhhh.

You stumbled into a Kevin Bacon connection with your subject line.

In Friday the 13th, Kevin Bacon bought the farm soon after the obligatory pre-death, teen-horror, sex scene.

Kevin Bacon was in Animal House as an ROTC cadet freaking out and screaming to a rioting crowd, "Remain calm!"

Oops! Did I just date myself?

According to my research it is accredited to the day in 1307 when french and papal troops swooped down on the knights templar arrested and tortured and them executed them. Therefore it is a bad luck day.

Got some bad news re: my wife's health this afternoon. Don't really think the date has much to do with it. Just a rotten coincidence.

Oh, I'm so sorry, L.R. ((((hugs to you both))))

Thanks.

Oh, so sad to hear about the bad news. I continue to wish you both the best, and hope for the best.

Thank you. Looks like we're dealing with a lung cancer diagnosis. Not the news we were hoping for but something we suspected. So now we're in fight mode. We have an excellent internist/pulmonary specialist who has taken over her care. He has a wonderful bedside manner and answered all her questions but pulled no punches on the seriousness of what she is facing. Onward and upward. If you pray, prayers would be greatly appreciated and good thoughts coming her way are all good too. I love this community that has welcomed me over the past 5+ years. Y'all are good people.

Ron & Merna Burr

I'm glad to hear that you have a fine specialist who has taken over Merna's care. And that you are both in fight mode! I truly believe that determination can have a big effect on how the body deals with sickness.

When you feel ready (if you haven't, yet) to update the general list in a separate topic, I am sure that everyone will add their prayers, hopes, hugs, and good vibes to mine.

Fight on!

Oh my! So sorry to hear this. Hoping all goes well.

More specialized testing happening in Calgary and here next Wednesday and Thursday. Will have a more complete picture when radiology/oncology and pathology get finished their research by month's end.

RB

my best wishes for your wife and you sir. I always enjoy your post and responses.

Oh Ron, so sorry to hear that you received lousy news.I'm sending good thoughts and healing energy, love and light to both of you. Please keep us updated. Just a FYI....my mother is a lung CA survivor and is going strong at age 87. Her diagnosis was in 2004. She did have the left lower lobe of her lung removed, but you would never know today that she went through this. They have made great strides in the successful treatment of lung CA in recent years. Stay strong. I know she has a great support system....in you!


Love to you both...

I lay down for a nap on the afternoon of the 13th
and woke up with a horrible neck injury. I have
no idea what happened.
