Cardio says there's a good chance I suffer a major cardiac event in next two years. Eat well, exercise, but have a bad ticker thanks to longterm effects of chemo treatment.
Two kids under the age of 10 and wasn't able to get a reasonable life insurance plan because of my medical condition. BTC, ETH, LTC donations would go a long way in softening the blow for them after I depart.

I couldn't find some of my more specific sexual posts, but I did find some of my childhood stories in this thread. I actually had some pretty strange experiences as a kid as detailed in the thread.

I'm a sympathetic person, but BMI 27? C'mon bro, if you really have kids, get your ass in gear. Your weight is 100% something you can make a change for the better.

I lifted for 45 minutes last night and rode the exercise bike on level 20 for an hour at the Y last night. I do this 3-4 times per week, even though my heart palpitations freak me out. I'm fairly fit.

My parents knew the risks. It was either take the anthracyclines or die.
I was always more interested in taking down the factory that I believe caused the cancer cluster in my neighborhood (two of my good friends had Hodgkin's, my sister's best friend died of leukemia, etc). One of the reasons I was motivated to attend law school in the first place.

At the time, the radiotherapy was nothing. I so looked forward to it compared to the chemo treatments. Longterm it screwed up my bone strength and musculature in my leg. And now I have really bad swelling and almost zero range of motion in my calf/ankle/lower left leg. I have to wear medical grade compression stockings to get any relief and I usually lie on my back for a good hour in the evenings with my leg propped up against a wall to help drain the leg.
Chemo was hell, especially since they didn't have the antiemetics they do now. It was a complete wipeout and nonstop vomiting for days after chemo treatments, with the doxorubicin (Adriamycin) by far being the worst of the drugs (also had Cytoxin, Vincristine, Actinomycin D, and a some others).

Alright man. I'm the one who actually showed at the Y last night. Do you even really live in SD?
Also, I mean I guess it depends on the model of bike or whatever, but levels 18-20 is what I use for my entire workout. I warm-up on 18 for a couple minutes then kick it up to 20 for an hour and cool down at 18. Despite my crap heart, I've got pretty good cardio stamina and was running marathons just a few years ago.

this is life. treatment bought me almost thirty years, but now I'm paying the piper. I don't even care about my life so much anymore, just worried about my kids.

yeah hope you live to hold grandkids, bro. but God forbid not, rest assured I will put 1k into a gofundme for the kids if your wife runs it, it checks out, and it is publicized here.
All of us, we could take care of freshmen year of college for one of the kids
