I was just about to post the same thing. Who cares what they wear? I just want to beat USCe. I don't care they wear pink purple and orange. I just want to win baby!

When there's more good days than bad, I call that a good month. Happy to say, I've had a couple a good months.
Hope things have been better for you than the last we chatted. Tried scrolling and keeping up with everyone but know I missed a lot.

That's great to hear. :D I'm afraid that things haven't been very good on my end. Besides the fire, the OH has liver failure and had kidney cancer that was operated on (we think that's taken care of but aren't 100 percent sure). He's currently in hospice but hopefully not to die but rather to wait for a transplant. The bad news is that recently the hospice nurse said her records were that he had cancer in his liver too. That is when my jaw hit the floor because I've been with him every step of the way and at every hospitalization and doctor's appointment.

I'm hoping this is an error because I recall when he was first diagnosed he had a nodule on his liver as well as the malignancy on his kidney but they told me the one on his liver was benign. Some time between that initial hospitalization and the many others that have followed that got switched to malignant without anyone bothering to tell me and I'm hoping this is an error or what the hospice nurse said could be a diagnosis based on the kidney cancer because the area has never been biopsied.

I'm very worried atm though because he's having issues with confusion and the like that don't match his diagnosis or any of his known health problems. Hepatic encephalopathy can and does cause all sorts of confusion when amonia levels rise but his amonia levels have been ok and he had a recent hospitalization due to a siezure and they ran every imaging test on his brain so I know there's no bleed or tumor there. Something else is wrong but right now, I'm trying to figure out which way to go and what exactly should be done about it. We're trying a new med to see if we can at least alleviate the symptoms. We're going to see his liver specialist but I need to get him physically and mentally better than he is right now.

The good news is that last Halloween we celebrated the fact that we never thought he'd make to Halloween and now another Halloween approaches. Whatever else is going on, he's made it a lot longer than the doctors ever thought he would when he first went in. I still think he can make it to a transplant but we have to find out what is causing his current symptoms.

I'm not a fan of the Haslams either but I agree with you. I'm able to disagree with someone on the subject.

This is what I know for a fact: 1. this board is frequently trolled by both rival fans and vol fans alike 2. most of that trolling occurs in the FF but not all.

Here's what I believe to be fact but do not know: 1. I believe that AV is real and has helped people because we have too many posters that have claimed real world help from AV.

Sooo where I think that leaves me is that AV's situation is complicated. I think he's real but he's also human and a fan. He probably fell for some things he shouldn't have but I don't think that makes him a bad person or necessarily a troll. Everyone gets taken in from time to time when it's something we care about. JMO.

As an aside... How the heck are you?

He can hang out and have beers at some place other than Manning’s restaurant with Peyton. Not many of you can say that. AV is living the good life while you guys debate stupid crap about him. He doesn’t care.

A person's value is not his or her wealth. I've had a VFL at most of my birthday celebrations. It doesn't make me special either. I wasn't insulting AV but giving my honest opinion on a very public situation so I really don't understand the petty nature of this response. If anything, I've given him more credit than a lot of others have.

Stayed up all night to watch the Dodgers lose so I would feel better about the Braves chances. Oh well. What a game.

I’m a cards fan so I’m disappointed. But the dodgers are the far more talented team. Entire NL was rooting for the Cards tonight. Can’t see the dodgers losing in a series.

Don’t think so much of yourself. It was more a response to the entire AV thing that everyone was talking about. Put me on ignore. That’s where you and your petty comment puts you. So sensitive.
