Wow.  It's rough knowing that someone you consider a friend, even an online friend, may be about to die...

If things go well, I hope to see you here again, buddy.

If things don't go well, and there is an afterlife, may yours be AWESOME and full of beer and manly kilts.

If reincarnation is real...well, it ups my chances of hearing your words of wisdom again if you don't make it through the summer.

The only acceptable purpose for your death is for you to come back and tell us what it's like.

I'm sorry, I'm terrible with feelings and shit. Just... what Mme Antichrist said. I haven't know you for as long as the others have, but I just want you to know that you're the best of us, and I hope there is some kind of afterlife just so that you can go to the best one.

I really don't know what to say and a side of me didn't want to say anything because it may make it seem more permanent or likely, but I don't think I could erase it from my conscience if I didn't say something  :'(

I just want to say that like a lot of posters I look up to you and will echo Mlle's statement. We're pulling for you, but should anything happen, we will honor your wishes. Best of luck and please make it to and far past 2015.

Damn...I hope things work out well for ya, brother.  You're definitely in my Top 5 Favoritest Posters, and you are just generally awesome.  If things don't go well...well, I want you to know that you're one of the best people I know and that I hope your afterlife is one that you can genuinely enjoy.

Best of luck, Sandman.  As someone whose best friend is currently awaiting biopsy results, I can kind of understand what you are dealing with (though not first-hand).

If it makes you feel any better, my doctor told me that if I don't stop smoking and drinking, I may join you in the cancer ward.

Based on what I've read, prostate cancer isn't the death sentence it once was, so you probably have better odds than the previous generation of patients.

Well, it started as prostate cancer, but biopsies last year found it in my lymphatic system.

I'm quite sorry to hear that, sandman. You're an excellent person (and poster as well!). I wish you the best.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Corinthians 13: 4-7

Well, I’m gonna be optimistic about this in any case. But I don’t have to be pessimistic to say that I’ve always found you to be a cool guy anyway. Anyway, how well you have been handling this only reinforces that impression. Looking forward to many more great discussions with the sandman.

Sandman,

No matter how this turns out, I just want you to know that you are a loved and cherished member of the community. You've done a lot to help this forum and your reputation as a balanced, funny, and intelligent person is more than well-warranted. I would rather remain optimistic, of course, but no matter what happens to you, you are still strong. You have always seemed to handle things with a lot of grace and dignity and you continue to do that even now. Really, I have nothing but respect for you and sympathy for you and what you are going through, as well as your family and friends.

To be honest, i am hopiung for the best, preparing for the worst. and I just didnt want a sudden disapearence to happen without some kind of explanatipn.

Whatever I could say couldn't match this. Get better, Sandman.
