Thanks so much everyone for your support, I even got an email from Warboss Alex which made my day.

Thanks for letting me vent a little, I can't tell anyone in real life except mum, they will just treat you like you're dying and look at you strangely when you laugh.

I will keep everyone up to date.

Like most of the board i'm in no position to advice you but i believe you will come out stronger when its all over. Be inspired by those killer squats and dead lifts and employ that mind set battling against this.

If it helps any, you're not the only one going through this here. I was diagnosed back in April with testicular cancer. They found a swollen lymphnode, but path reports and all the blood work don't indicate any spread at all, so for the time being I'm not getting chemo or radiation. We'll see how things look again in about 6 weeks.

Talk to your oncologist about certain diets you're planning, because treatment might play a role in what you should or shouldn't eat or drink for a while.

Just hang in there, man. Cancer has f'd with my head and it always helped me to talk to people who were going through it too, so I'm here if you need that.

Good luck and keep us updated.
**** man, sounds like you're kicking the cancers a$$ all on your own.
I hope I don't have to go through radio therapy as well.
Do you feel 100% energy wise?

Thanks for the support and best of luck to you.

Amante Silvestre, If you need some inspiration this is a great interview with Matt Kroczaleski who defeated testicular cancer and continued on to be a world class powerlifter after radio therapy. It really helped me out and I'd like to think I have the same attitude towards it that he dose.

Haha, he talks about just having his nut removed then doing max rep squats until it started bleeding. He is one tough guy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiH8BAK92Yk

Before finding out he had cancer, Lance Armstrong didn't win Tour de France once...

After discovering he had cancer, he won the Tour de France 7 times...

These are opportunities to develop psychological and emotional strength.\


good luck

Really sorry to read about this. I hope you make it out OK.

How do you find out whether or not you have cancer? Routine doctor checkups? I feel like I should call my doctor just to make sure. Actually I just made a checkup appointment.

Hey Wolf,

You caught it early, good job. You're active and your survival chance will be over 90%. Cancer is dangerous because people don't catch it. Best of luck.

Wolf,

Im sorry to hear about this, because it is difficult for a young man.
But Im not sorry to hear YOU are going through it.


The body's natural state is one of health.


There is NO Physical State that CANNOT be ALTERED.

None.

The only obstacle to health is your MINDSET.

That's it.

That's the big secret.

Not 'dont expose yourself to this or that' yada yada...

...it is to SIMPLY NOT ACCEPT DIS EASE.

I know it sounds crazy.

But how come some people bear cancers and others succumb to it?

Think about this.

How come some people who have a hereditary history of disease DO NOT DEVELOP it??

You simply say NO.

Say NO to ANY Disease.

This cancer is simply your body telling you that your mind is not focused enough on the proper mind set to NOT ACCEPT ANY DISEASE.
It means it's time for you to pay attention to your body,and make the connection to how other people give in to the 'medical and scientific facts' and how other people completely BLOW THROW so called scientific or MEDICAL ABSOLUTES.
There are no ABSOLUTES.
Other than your body is SUPPOSED to be and stay healthy...
...unless you give in to the media, propaganda, victim thinking, and lazy attitude toward health.

Do not be convinced by others.
Dont let them put self limiting 'facts' in your head if you dont want them.

Remember, this is YOUR personal wake up call, Wolf.
This is your battle and your self realization.
This is the time for you to connect the dots, put two and two together, and blast away any notion of disease, or succumbing to them.

It is extremely important to from now on to start a daily practice of meditation, and in particular , creative visualization of health, and your personal healing process.
Your mind has the power to completely dominate your body and its processes.

YOU must FIGURE out your OWN method to SELF HEALING, Wolf.

NOW.

DO you understand?

You will continue to work with the doctors and medecines, BUT you will also add your own special 'kung fu' into the mix.
Do you understand, Wolf?

You must look into
Meditation
Creative Visualization for Healing
Immune system supplements and foods
Energy healing like Reiki
Tai Chi and especially Chi Kung


You have your own battle to be won.
And win it you shall, Wolf.

I would not bull sh*t you. I am telling you, THIS combined method is what I truly believe WILL benefit you.
Work with the doctors, but create your own self healing methods, and stick to them for the rest of your life, Wolf.
I would not be telling you this stuff if I didnt believe it for myself 100 percent.

Dis ease is ALL created by OUR Minds.
WE ACCEPT that for whatever reason we are SUPPOSED to get sick.
We simply dont dispute it. We accept it.
Like sheep or cattle.

Why???

Are you a sheep or cattle, Wolf?


Start kicking ass, Wolf.
And get medieval on that 'cancer'.
Keep us updated here, ok?
And feel free to keep asking questions and for advice.
We are here to help you.

Stay positive man. Remember, you're at around the top %.01 of the population in terms of health, athletic ability, and health/nutritional info. You will survive through this a lot stronger than most people, Magic Johnson style (he has HIV, but you know what I mean).

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your raw emotional honesty. Please keep us updated.

If you want something inspirational to watch rent or buy the DVD series John Adams which was made by HBO.

Its the best series or show I've seen in a long time.

It really lifted my spirits and inspired me.

With so much shallow Hollywood crap being shovelled out for years its no wonder I had such a powerful reaction to watching this series.

Maybe you can get some strength out of it too Wolf.

Its all about overcoming adversity.
