    Sorry, I really hate to junk this place up with personal problems but I have to vent somewhere. My grandpa has just been diagnosed with lung cancer, and its not looking so great right now. He has gone to the doctor for the past 3 months complaining of back pains and then just of the past month troubles with breathing, each time they told him he was just exagerating and sent him home. Well on monday night he stopped breathing all together and had to rushed to the ER. They have found cancer throughout his body, in his shoulder, throat and brain. This guy is probably one of my biggest car idols, and he has meant everything to me ever since he gave me my first hotwheels car. He also is the one who gave me my first car (195 chevy 210). I really can't imagine loosing him and I am really afraid I am...so I would like to ask everyone to keep him in your thoughts. Again I am very sorry for junking up the forums with this, Ryan please delete this if you think I am out of line.

    Real life is never OT, and we all need help when we face the parts that are completely beyond us. We're with you.

    My thoughts are with you. Everything will work out, it may not seem fair to you right now, but it will all be okay. Life is a bumpy road, you got to do the best you can with what you've got.

    Keep your head up, there are people out here you've never met who care for you.

    I regret to say, you are not the first to come for moral support, nor will you be the last. My prayers are with you and your grandpa. My father is 83, I take no time spent with him for granted.

    Prayers with you man, sounds like you're as close as I was to my gramps. My Grandpa filled the spot left by my dad, who died when I was 5 years old. Gramps was a real car guy too, worked on the Buick assembly line in 1927. I spent a lot of time with him even after I got married, and I'm thankful for every minute of it.

    Its not over until God says it is. Keep us posted...

  24. Talked about stuff like this last night in the bar. I never know what to say but..

    Hang in there, these things are always hard and nothing can make them instantly better. If someone passes on, they are always kept alive in our memories.

    Thoughts & prayers are with you and your family. I know its hard but try to focus on the gifts you have been given by him being a part of your life and how your life has been enriched by having him help make you the person you are. Hang in there and be there for him.
