Kimchee45 is stable in the hospital

I am back out of the "Horse-pistol" (HP) and starting to recover my brain.
I DO HOPE IT Takes good hold this time ! A slippery fish sometimes !

After a 'CT' and 'warm-MRI' of the Brain, I was Very confused !

Chris-

I thought I was home, but was still in the 'HP'. The results came back and the CT scan showed a liver mass thought to be cancer. There were spots on my lung thought to be a spread of the cancer. The MRI showed spots on my brain and skull that were thought to be cancer. The biopsy came back as undifferentiated cancer of a source not specific but thought to be liver or possibly pancreas.

I'm not thinking clearly and my son is helping with half this post.

I'm getting use to the strange surroundings, a tiny bit.


Prayers sent :pray2:
(and they will continue to be sent).
Your' brain "not firing on all cylinders" is a frightening thought. :)
 
Yesterday around 6:40 am Kimchee45 went quietly and painlessly to be with his departed wife.

He was surround by those who loved him and was not alone. He will be sorely missed and the world is at a loss for this fine family man.

In lieu of flowers he would not of wanted any that. The family is asking if desired to send donations in his name to the American Liver Foundation: http://mail.liverfoundation.org/howtohelp/

Or to the Indiana Hunter Education Association, 1540 Kentucky Street, Ferdinand Indiana 47532, a 501 (c) 3 non-profit that may be tax deductible EIN: 35-1940219 https://www.facebook.com/InHEA/ http://inhea.com/wp/



Kimchee45's preferred shooting iron was the 1911 Colt .45 and it was his primary carry gun but he was occasionally known to shoot plastic too.

He was a Navy veteran serving as a Fire Control Technician on the Destroyer U.S.S. Shelton, worked at Chrysler and GM factory jobs and while working obtained his Masters in Electronic Engineering at Purdue University. He received all A's except for two classes where he disagreed with the professors, one being on gun control and received two B's.

He was a professor at Purdue and Western Kentucky University at Bowling Green and moved into a position as Manufacturing Engineer for Delphi Electronics.

His personal favorite work accomplishment was creating a testing piece of equipment that tested car computer chips with 300 volts, unheard of at the time. That product paid for itself in less than 6 months, lasted 10 years (unheard of) and saved the company millions.

R.I.P. Kimchee45 you will be sorely missed...
