My best friend and shooting partner is ill.

My heart goes out to you, Maniac.

The day, six years ago, that Gail came home one Friday night to tell me she had just been diagnosed with cancer was the worst day of my life. Like you, my wife is my best friend.

My only counsel, which I doubt you need, is to stand by her and provide strength. That's the most important thing. To be strong for her when -- in those moments she will inevitably falter -- you can provide spiritual and physical support. Hold her hand, be at her side no matter how tough and ugly it gets.

You both have my prayers.

I will keep you two in my thoughts during this troubling time. Stay strong for your wife and just be there for her.

Modern medicine is amazing and even specialized. Have faith in the Dr.'s treatments. Technology is on your side.
 
Prayers for your wife

Maniac, we are very sorry to hear this.you and your wife are in our prayers..stay strong for her...
 
Sorry to hear this Maniac. I have been in a similar situation with my wife for a few years now. Much of our life now centers around blood tests and Dr. appointments. One benefit of retirement is I can attend these with her and do the driving. I support her in every way I can. I wouldn't have it any other way. My prayers go out to you both for a complete recovery.
 
Maniac I don't believe we have ever crossed paths on this forum....until now.

Positive thoughts and prayers will be zoomed to you and your wife starting now.

Hang in there.
 
sorry to hear that. my prayer to you and your wife.
2 years ago my friend's mom was diagnosed with stage 2 throat cancer.
the doctor suggest her to consume rain soul. https://rainintl.com/soul
i bought 4 boxes for his mom and he make sure she took the supplement 2-3 times / day.
after 3 month, the doctor said she is cancer free.

i dont know if this information is helping but i think there is no harm in sharing, right?

So very sorry to see this. You and your wonderful wife will be in my thoughts and prayers.
 
Yesterday, the love of my life, my best friend, my pool shooting partner was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. I will be suspending all my away-from-home pool activities to stay near her and help her physically and emotionally while she goes through this ordeal.

Let me tell you something about my wife....she's a crown jewel. She's every man who has a hobby's dream. Over the years she has let me purchase without any hesitation all the fishing, hunting, shooting, and pool gear that I ever wanted, and over the years I have wanted huge amounts. It is now a standing joke around our house that when I want another cue or case, I tell her it will be the last one I will ever buy. She just rolls her eyes and says "Yeah, I've heard that one before, about seven or eight times".

Anyway, I will still be coming here on AZB to post my opinions in various threads, so you're not rid of me yet.

I would like to ask if there are any prayer warriors in the community to please drop God a line on behalf of my little lady. Thanks in advance.

I can certainly relate to your dilemma..My loving wife of 36 yrs. lost her battle a few yrs. ago!..I would not wish a pain like that loss, on my worst enemy!..Like yours, she was totally supportive of anything I chose to pursue!..Now its your turn, and I am sure you will step up to the task.

You will need the help and understanding of all those close to you, to get through this very rough time!..Think how lucky we were (are) to have a woman like ours..Most of them are extremely jealous and bitter over our passion for pool, gambling, fishing, or anything that takes time away from them!..Stay strong, and best of luck to you! :thumbup:

Maniac...prayers sent, my friend. Best wishes for a complete recovery. My wife went through two major surgeries in the last 6 months! She's healing, and we hope it is the same for your lovely wife!
