More good news! The surgeons are opting for the less invasive surgery. The resection for that area is risky and my situation doesn't warrant that kind of risk. They're confident they can get all the cancer with an endoscopic surgery. Just waiting for the surgeon's office to call and schedule the surgery now.

Always awesome to hear more good news! Hopefully the surgery will be soon. The quicker Doc Apelby has you up and running....the quicker we can get the Boar's Nest party started.

Ooh! Please do! That'd be great to have HazzardNet represented there. It's been a long time since I've been well enough to get out to a Dukes event.

The surgeon's nurse called today to set up an office visit for next Monday to discuss the surgery. Can't wait until this is all over with!

We get pileated woodpeckers in our backyard fairly often. We can hear when they land on the suet feeder. CLANG! LOL. We also get downy woodpeckers, hairy woodpeckers, and lots and lots of flickers. I often get woken up to flickers drumming on our siding, which is fiber-cement for that very reason....

The party at the Boar's Nest to celebrate the good news is going to be the biggest Hazzard County has ever seen!

Sending good thoughts and prayers Meadowmuffin.

Kyle still does the charity ride. He kicked off this year's ride right here near my town on Friday. It was in all the local papers.

From the sound of it, even if he turns out to be just HALF as good as he sounds....you'll just WALK through all this !! You'll wake up one morning and think you dreamed it!  And YES!!...I have some of my finest shine,  saved for you and all of us in Hazzard, to celebrate when you're home! ( Unless you want to break into it a little early....you never waste a sip....!! )

There were even at least 2 reviews that said "he saved my life!", so that's a pretty great testimonial.

Thanks. I really appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers. It really boosts my spirits. Quick little update. My oncologist called today. He sent my scan results to a surgeon and I should be meeting with the surgeon soon. I looked the surgeon up on the internet, 5 stars everywhere I look, so that inspires a lot of confidence. I'm in good hands. Spirits are high, though right now I'm not feeling so great. Hopefully a good night's sleep will help.

AOL chat! Those were the days! That was such a good time for the DOH fandom.
It's amazing how many people have come to me and offered an ear to listen and answer questions since I have gone public with my diagnosis. And, surprisingly, they're all people with GI cancers like I have (though not the exact same type of cancer). I think I'm good for now, but thank you for the offer and if I have questions or need to talk, you'll hear from me!

My limited vocabulary does not allow me to probably say the right thing. But I will say this. I hope you have a good recovery and get as close to your former self as is possible.
I've got family who had cancer as well. It is very tough for them 5 years.

Uh oh. Looks like I've gotta update/redo the theme. I hope not. Thanks for the heads up.

Thank you MM! You really are helpful and very special! I hope you can feel our love and appreciation through the computer! I got a Mason jar of the good stuff....one of Jesse's finest!....saved for you in the back of the car lot!   ( I also hope you're feeling better too!  )
 

Thanks for everything you have done through all these years to keep this place going. You are my hero MM. We love and appreciate you and your passion for all things Hazzard. Since you founded this place it has been the best website on the internet and always will be. 

I'm planning on updating the forum software this weekend, April 8th. It might be unavailable for a short while.

He's going to need it with folks like me and Hobie causing trouble!

I guess this means I can go on that long vacation I've been dreaming of now. And that reminds me, I totally forgot to put together that moderator guide last weekend...

Ours went forward a few weeks ago. I still should have used that as an excuse as to why I didn't have time to put together the moderator guide.

By the power vested in me as the owner of HazzardNet, I hereby declare HossC as the newest moderator of our forums. Many of you know he's a long time veteran of HazzardNet and has been keeping a keen eye on the forums in my absence, so I figured we'd make it official and give him moderator superpowers to toss any spammers and riff-raff in the hoosegow.

Congratulations, Hoss! Remember all of us little people when you're famous!

Hmm... that must've happened the last time HazzardNet was hacked many years ago.  Thanks for the compliments, Roger. I'm not a hero, but I'm glad HNet has brought you such happiness over the years.
