My best friend
I received a call, today, from my best friend, (YES messed around with), and more importantly, known since I was 8 yrs old. He is 11 months younger than I. He is/always has everything going for him.
Today at about 6pm, I get a call from him. His voice was somber, not the upbeat voice that I was used to. I am thinking "Okay, NOW WHAT...is he wanting to borrow money, or what?" (I could kill myself for thinking this way now):
He tells me:
"Bro, I need to tell you something that is scaring me to death". I am like "What?" He replies, "I have not been feeling well at work, and had to go to the hospital by ambulance".
I said, "Dude, WTF is going on, you are scaring me?"
He tells me that while at the hospital, the techs took blood/did tests.
"They told me I have a form of leukemia, called 'chronic myelogenous leukemia'."
I said,"BRO, are you fucking kidding me?", (those that know me, know that I do not talk that way).
"No, I'm serious as I can be".
I am waiting to hear more from him, but I am hoping it is better news, or that he can just take a daily pill, as maintainence, vs radiation/chemo, or anything that is just 'prolonging'.

That is horrible news, Bob. You have a lot of friends here, and I can promise you that your extended family on the forum is all praying for you and your best friend.

I just added him to my prayer list, Bob. I think I will throw in a couple extra for you too.

Blanket BLESS EVERYONE, AND THANK YOU
Ms. K, Thank you SOO much! I appreciate each, and every one of you that help, both that have already posted, as well, that WILL post, (so that I do not sound like a broken record), nor take away from the purpose I started this thread...(meaning, NOT to have the 'spotlight on 'me', but rather on my friend)

Update...
My friend had his first chemo treatment today. (I do not know what else to say here except, I am with him spiritually, and just pray he tolerates it as best he can)

Bob,
You are a kind man and obviously a good friend for your friends to call you and lean on you. I hope and pray that they receive the help they need. Peace to you all.
