God be with you and your family and know we will support you all as best we can.

Best of luck to you. May this draw you closer to God. I'm with Senior Citizen. Sounds like time to get straight with God. If you haven't, it's time to turn your focus to Jesus and the Good Lord. All things are possible with Him.
You can be healed. You can be made whole again. Trust in the Lord. You have many supporters. Hang in there.

Thoughts, prayers and all the best.
I can't imagine what you are going through, but have a feeling, while not terminal, I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer in October. Learning you have cancer is a tough, tough thing to deal with.
Hang in there!

Steve, I will be praying for you and your family, and for you to make the right decision.
Two years ago I had to make the same decision, although I dont think it was quite as serious as yours. I basicly was told I had 2 months to 2 years if I didnt have my nose cut off. Had I been single I think I might have just took my chances. However I was fairly newly married and got the surgery probley more for my wife than myself. So far, it probley has saved my life. I went through 3 surgerys in the deal. I hid out for about 6 months. My wife nursed me through it where probley many other women would have ran off! As I already take blood thinners, it was a "balancing act", I almost died twice when blood clots gave way etc. My new nose was almost healed up and somehow I fell flat on the concrete and busted up a lot of work on it.
It took me roughly one year of doctoring till I got as good as I am. I wish you all the best. If you wish, e-mail me as I been through similar.

Steve, I respect and appreciate your candor and openness. You have hundreds if not thousands of friends you have never met, and many of them are right here on this forum. Whether you feel it or not, tonight and into the future most of them are going to be doing something on your behalf. Believe it.
In an ambiguous and uncertain situation, any decision is a good decision. Think about it, decide, and follow through without a second thought. There are several factors to consider, but I bet that over the next few days the proper course of action will announce itself.
Whatever course of action you follow, don't try to tough this out without painkillers. When required, they are proper drugs rather than problem drugs. Whatever you decide to do, there is going to be some discomfort in your future. You and your doctor will know how much pain medication is appropriate. Don't let yourself take any less than that.
Good thoughts are coming at you from all directions. You are not alone.
