A couple weeks ago, I had some chest pains looked into. As near as I can remember, I was having them since Sept and didn't want things to mess up my season with Blake. They aren't severe so I figured they were minor. I went to my doctor and he ran me through EKG and stress test that came back ok but the chest xray didn't show my aortic arch very well as it looked like a little fluid was shadowing it. I had a ct scan and it showed up a mass in my left lung..and I started coughing up a little blood. The CT showed something in my kidney and some of my glands were slightly enlarged. Friday I had a PET scan, today I went for pre surgical blood work and questions and Thursday I go in for a biopsey on my left lung. I can't have a needle biopsy as it is too close to my aorta and spine and the Dr is afraid if she goes in trough the bottom, she could collapse my lung. The only thing I could think of the first few days was that I wouldn't see my grandsons graduate from High School and who would take Blake hunting. Now I am mad and going to fight like a madman to lick this crap. Sorry to dump, but I am asking for prayers, good thoughts and stump dances from the West coast. Thanks for letting me get this off my back for a bit.......Lee
