In response to post #8986252.

Thanks!

I have been crying a lot lately...life has been so hard but I feel so fricken motivated to come out on top from this ordeal. I finally get the message, I finally want to do everything I have put off in life.

I know in my photos I look like im a big guy(and I am), but I have lost nearly 70 pounds now in the last few months. I really hope once I get back on track, I can get back into sports and such.

Since my stroke in 2007, I went from 86 kilos (about 180 pounds) to 167 kilos (nearly 360 pounds) because I basically was no longer mobile and just ate because of depression. So I am fighting my illness, my weight, my depression and more - it is not easy - but by God it's such a powerful life experience.

I started eating well since starting this thread, and have been heavily motivated by the people who have messaged me.

Thanks again!

This would be the last website I would go to if I wanted to be touched by a story, but this changes that. I'm getting a job this week, I'll be sure to donate! Good luck with everything, and your output on this is very uplifting. letting this all get to you could only make it worse and not better. No one should have to go what you go through.

I fully support you nexrazor, "professional medical treatment" wont do any help, it will only kill the person more then tumor itself, and that is sad. People nowdays belive they can cure tumor in hospitals by takeing chemotherapy. Alternative medicine would be so better choice, person would live longer, healthyer, and meybe even cure cancer. Main problem is in food that is basically toxic. And I also heard that tumor need sugar to live and without it he cant survive. Sorry for bad english but I think u get the picture, chemotherapy is LAST CHOICE TO MAKE.

It's been a while without an update.

In the last week I have lost a further 10 kilos, that's about 22 pounds. All up now since December I have lost 40 kilos, so about 88 pounds.

All my clothes now need replacing, which is kind of funny. I wear my old track pants and they all hang and sag down. However I am still fat, need to lose another 60 kilos (about 132 pounds).

Ate some solids today, first time in 3 weeks. Had some eggs, some chicken mince soup and potatoes. Still have some discomfort in the bowel area, which takes focus off the brain stuff which have really died down since I had steroid injections. I mean these injections really died down a lot of symptoms really quickly by diminishing inflammation. So +1 to science there.

I will be seeing a surgeon on the 23rd of October, 3 days after my birthday. I will be turning 34 on the 20th of October and it is already a milestone because they initially told me I would be completely disabled by this point, but I have not had any seizures or problems other than my perforated colon due to another tumor.

I am nearly done with my antibiotics (2 more days) and then more waiting. I still run a low grade temperature nearly every day (37.6-37.9) every day, but I think it's because of the infection I had in my colon is still clearing up a little.

So thanks for the kind words, messages and donations and I will keep on chugging.

Thanks a lot,

Tony

Hey Tony, I have been a huge fan of skyrim, and as a result, your contribution to skyrim. I had no idea you were going through this, but i know what its like from a family members perspective as i have had family in that position.

I find your story inspiring. It seems like the best people are the ones who have it the worst right?
Either way, Im glad you are still going. :) (I sure hope you continue to do so!)
I know God isn't a popular subject on the internet, but I will go out enough to say i sent up a prayer to the big man in the sky for you. :)

Keep on keeping on my friend!

- Alex
