He has advanced lung cancer and is in a hospital in Palm Springs. Family and friends are with him. I will know more tomorrow but things do not look good.
I'm very sorry to here this. I've known for awhile he was not well but did not know what it was or how serious. My thoughts and prayers are with him.
mega bummer. not good. Im from palms springs. Raised there. My first son was born in that hospital. First Class Facitlty. Better than the hospital in which I work now.
Thanks for the info. He had said awhile back that something bad was afoot. I know him from when he worked at Bob's BMW like 15 years ago. I was tickled as hell when I started hanging out here a couple of years ago, and figured out who wirewrkr was. Shit! I don't pray a lot, but I'll pray for him.
Get well Robert. You do not have my permission to leave this place. It wouldn't be the same ... BE STRONG.
Oh lordy, what bad news. Prayers and thoughts for Robt and family. Should we post his name along with the hospital address for... correspondence? Internet/WiFi may be not available in the hospital. His business email addy is: robertv@wirewerkes.com but he may have a "private" email that we could send to (such as his gmail address). Find out what we can list in public here. And we can print out this thread for him as it grows. --Bill
What?! I was recently wondering why he hadn't posted any ebay funnies... wirewrkr, stay strong! This has been on my mind all morning. If I may- As it's said down in the Basement: Fuck Cancer.
How far along is his cancer? If he isn't in the final stages he just might have time to save his own life, even if he is in the final stages this is well worth trying. http://blog.norml.org/2012/02/01/ca...-for-cancer-patients-israeli-study-concludes/ http://www.tokeofthetown.com/2011/01/worth_repeating_marijuana_halves_lung_cancer_tumor.php http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/health/2012/06/12/tommy-chong-treats-his-prostate-cancer-with-cannabis/ http://www.webmd.com/lung-cancer/news/20070417/marijuana-may-fight-lung-tumors http://www.nowpublic.com/thc_marijuana_helps_cure_cancer_says_harvard_study http://www.thedailybeast.com/articl...lps-manage-side-effects-researchers-find.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0psJhQHk_GI http://phoenixtears.ca/make-the-medicine/ I have personally been involved in helping to treat and cure several people with various forms of cancer. The cancers that can be most effectively be treated and cured with cannabis oil are soft tissue cancers, however I have seen marked improvements in health for a bone cancer patient I was working with. If you know wirewrkr I would ask that you pass this information along to him... it just might save his life! It most definitely will NOT cause further damage or harm. I have worked closely with Marco Renda the owner of http://treatingyourself.com/ , I was a regular feature writer for his international medical marijuana magazine " TreatingYourself " . I am NOT a physician, I am just someone that knows the TRUTH! tyz
I am saddened to hear this.I, along with others, will miss his knowledge and input. My thoughts are with him and family.
Thoughts and prayers. When I first heard he was going through some health issues I didnt think much about it. Funny thing is I have thought about it a lot since then and now I know why. RECOVERY.
I talked to him a few weeks ago when he found out about the cancer in his liver also. He has been ill and didn't know why he was feeling like shit. Let me know more .. I'll take a drive to visit him.
