I am so sorry for what you are going through, Tucker. I will keep you in my heart and prayers. You will not be forgotten here on DU or by those who love and knew you.

I don't believe in punishment in the afterlife, but that we will be reunited with our family and pets who have gone before us. I hope you have someone you loved waiting for you. I also believe that after we are gone our "spirit" (or energy, or whatever it is) lives on in those we left behind.

I hope you will find some peace and the strength to face your treatments. Please continue to keep us updated, no matter how difficult that may be. We genuinely care about you and want to help you through this as much as we can from afar.
