Aaron,

Thank you for the posts on your situation. They are theraputic for you and us.

They are good therapy so you can deal with all of the emotional crud that you have to deal with on your way to recovery. Keep that positive focus of recovery.

They also are good for us in the wrestling community. We get so wrapped up in all that happens on the mat that we forget that God has blessed us with some of the most corageous, giving, humorous, and loving people a sport has to offer. Your updates are reminders that wrestling has brought all of us together, but there is something so much bigger than the sport at stake. We have made lifetime connections and friends through this sport and when we go through the trials and tribulations of life, we have a support group that hopes and prays for us in our time of need.

I hope it comforts you to know that though you've never met some of us personally, we are concerned and are praying to see sometime soon a post that reads, "Cancer - yeah I kicked its A$$."

Good luck and God bless
