I only have so much time. I'm an important man.

I have not let on but I have been battling what I thought was a several dental issue since mid-July, but it is a lot more than I bargained for.

After a lot of tests, scans, uncertainty, and waiting for answers, I’ve received some difficult news: I’ve been diagnosed with cancer. Specifically of the jaw. It is Stage 4, but has not metastasized yet.

This is not the news anyone wants to hear, and there’s still a lot ahead of me. I’m taking things one step at a time and focusing on what I can control—getting the right treatment, staying positive, and doing everything I can to fight this.

I know there will be difficult days ahead, but I also know I don’t have to face them alone. The support, prayers, encouragement, and kindness from family and friends mean more to me than I can put into words.

I’ll share more as I know more. For now, I’m asking for your prayers, positive thoughts, and continued support as I begin this next chapter.

I’m ready to fight.

Wow. Really sorry to hear that.

Kick its ass, Seabass.

You have all of my thoughts and prayers.

Say that reminds me, should I go back to Bukowski and ditch the Goof Son cackling avatar?

YES

please look into a low carb diet to combat cancer. Cancer cells live on glucose.

Interesting. I didn't know that.
