Earthquake given 13-18 months to live.

[Martli]

I found this quote from John Tenta who played "Earthquake", part of the tag teams the natual disasters.

"Well 'Crappers i know you've been waiting for an update so here it is. The silence was due to the fact I was moving into our new residence a couple weeks ago. Well, I don't know how to say this other than I've NEVER been kicked in the balls as hard as I was last Wednesday. Thinking I was licking this thing I met with my chemo doctor ready to 'Quake the cancer. Well..... I now have a new tumor in my left lung, and two lymph nodes are enlarged in my heart. I go in for chemo tomorrow for a 4-day session.(The beginning of many) I've been given 13-18 months to live. I'm not giving up, and hope to of course live longer, but that is what I've been told, and that it is incurable. I don't really know what else to say, it really caught me off guard. I'll try keep you posted, but no guarantees folks. Thank you for all your kind support, and may God bless you all.

Sucks really, I was a big earthquake fan, even though I never got to see many of his matches. They're dropping like flies .

Hey, just found an update on 'Quakes condition, and its good .

"First of all I'd like to thank all my fellow crappers for all the long, continued support, and prayers you've been giving me. Secondly, I'd like to wish everyone a great Christmas, and all the best in the New Year. Thirdly, I received some VERY encouraging news this past Monday. My tumor is SHRINKING AGAIN! On the scan, my doctor said she had to look very clodely and slowly at the scan or she may have missed the tumor. It now looks like just a small dot on the scan. We're trying to finish it off now, as I went through another round of chemo on Monday, and get a follow-up dose this Monday. The plan is two more rounds, then hopefully the tumor will be gone, and we'll talk about preventitive maintenance chemo. I was sooooo relieved, you guys. Before the blood transfusion, I was getting a few negative thoughts creeping in. Now I feel good again, and confident I'll be getting a second chance at life. I'm not ready to go skiing like I read Dr. Death Steve Williams is (That is great for him! Go Steve!), but I'm feeling good. I'm not out of the woods yet, but as I've been telling my son for years since he was a baby, "I'm the biggest, baddest gorilla in the jungle!" I'll find my way out soon. God bless you all, and thanks again for everything. Merry Christmas!
