am recovoring from renal cell carcinoma . 3 months ago I lost my left kidney and had a 15 lb tumor removed with it . I feel pretty good ,can get around okay but am still very weak,went from 175 lbs to 135 lbs in a few weeks .I have an ostomy reversal coming up when I get a bit stronger .

I have played pool a few times and was pretty bad at it .It all feels strange right now . The last time i played I did manage to run a rack of 9 ball ,even with a very weak break I made 3 and got out .

I am nearly 70 and I am not quitting this
life or great game yet .

Good for you! Nothing better than having a goal to work towards, even if that goal has no more defined objective than "get better at it". And you can add "get better" in general to that as well.
Hoping you make a rapid recovery, and can keep the prior issues in your rear view mirror as your pool journey moves onward and upward.
 
Every day I am alive is a true blessing ...My surgeon told the wife I had maybe 6 weeks to live and not too good of odds making it out of surgery . The worst part of this for me is how little I am allowed to do . My wife works way too hard ,we have a great neighbor who takes care of our yard so that is a big help . Pool was always a big part of my life but I realize it is far from the most important .

Once again thanks for the kind words and encouragement .

Buena suerte with your recovery.

Sounds like you have a steep hill ahead of you but also the will to get to the top.

Praying for your recovery, some would use this as a reason to give up, hoping for a quick recovery
