Good evening gentlemen. This is a sappy post that I’ve been struggling to write for a few weeks now. Please, if you know me personally off the board, don’t be offended that I didn’t text or call as I’ve just really been struggling to talk about this with anyone.

About three weeks ago, my wife was diagnosed with stage 2 grade 3 breast cancer. She’s 33. Seventy percent of her cancer cells are multiplying, so time is of the essence and they plan to begin chemotherapy treatments this week.

I am very impressed with the team from CHI that we will be working with and the vast amount of knowledge they provide is overwhelming.

We have been having conversations about what happens if this doesn’t work. It’s hard for me to ever think worst case scenario as you all know, because God made me an optimist for a reason and that part will never change. So those talks have been extremely difficult for me to have especially as they make my mind wonder about how our 5 year old will handle all of this.

I reached my breaking point last night after an incident with my mother in law.

This is a place I spend a good chunk of time and I consider many of you my friends. So I could really use some thoughts and prayers now boys.

So incredibly sorry to hear that. I will definitely put you and your wife on my prayer list. I know we don't know each other personally, but if there's anything that you need, please don't hesitate to ask.

Prayers lifted up for your wife, daughter and yourself.

My daughter is a radiation therapist at a private clinic in Scottsdale, so if you ever need to ask treatment related questions just PM me and I’ll facilitate the conversation.

Stay strong for your family. Fuck cancer.

We will be beating this. I’ve never been more confident in a statement in my life.

It’s just gonna be a mother fucker
Good luck to you both, and hoping for the best possible outcome, and good news soon.
It’s amazing the changes this will cause even after she kicks it’s ass. Patience and a whole helluva lot of understanding are essential if you get to that point, but for now, compassion and constant support is all she needs from you.

Damn man. That hits home pretty hard. I'm so sorry will be praying for all of you.

If you are in the Omaha area and need anything, please don't hesitate to ask. And I sincerely mean that. I unfortunately have not had the pleasure of meeting you in person, but would love to be able to help out in some, small way.

Stay strong. You're never in this alone.
