    Goodbye

    I have tried to remain reasonable and calm over all that has transpired over the last few years. I've seen people turn against one another that were freindly on various trek sites. The real world's politics should not be allowed to intrude into these places, because it brings to the surface how far we really have to go. And how obsessed with being right some people are. including myself.

    Some political divides are not going to be bridged anytime soon, no matter how badly some people want it.

    I still have hope, but not the energy to deal with it anymore. I'm so very tired. And my cancer has returned.

    Unhappy

    BC,

    I'm very sorry to see you go. Even if we had opposing views you always took care to backtrack and clarify your thinking in order to make sure you offended no one, and that's a noble attitude.

    I hope my leaving from the FBR is not what pushed you out as well.

    Take much, much care.

    Hey Bouncy...

    I wish you a full recovery and hope that you won't quit either the FBR nor Trek-RPG.net forever.
    I wish you all the best for the hard time ahead of you. Don't you dare to give in to that damned cancer, keep fighting.

    I'm sure we're all behind you sending whatever we can in your direction like we sent positive thoughts once for a member that was afraid to board a plane. I wish you well. Don't give up...

    Yours, Nico

    Awful news. Don't give up, and fight it hard. And if you choose to finally lower your arms, we will be with you, always.

    Take care, and I'm for you here.

    Please excuse my way of expressing myself but I'm very unskilled when it comes to touchy/private matters.

    I want to say, again, how evil that disease is and how much I loath it. This weekend my GF and I are driving to the country to see her mother. She had a bone marrow (sp?) transplant last year and was recovering (quite painfully) from cancer, than recently some tumor came back. She just started chemiotherapy again, making her weak again.

    I really really hope you beat this thing, and that one day it'll be beaten once and for all for everyone.

    My condolences on the return of your illness, BC. If it will help, we can all hold it down while you kicks its ass.

    Cancer is just plain nasty. Not only does it take it's toll on you, it's draining on the family too. Best of Luck BC, I have some idea of what your going thru & my heart goes out to you.
