"Cancer Sucks" knife for my wife... thank you Pancho

"Cancer Sucks" knife for my wife... thank you Pancho - 05/23/13 02:07 PM

a big thanks to Frank Aguirre (aka Pancho) for putting this one together. She really liked how it turned out.


for those who dont know the back story, both my wife and Frank's wife have battled cancer over the past couple years. And while none of the four of us have ever met in person, we have developed a kindred spirit with those around us who have battled the same demons. i know a lot of you are still in this battle, so please keep asking for prayers and support.

When my wife finally had her first (of hopefully all going forwared) cancer free scan back in Feb, i asked Frank if he could make something to celebrate the good news.

i am very thankful for this knife Frank, as it represents so many emotions (good and bad)that my family/friends have endured in the last couple of years.
Frank put a lot of character into this knife and it made her day to get it.

Tell your wife congrats. She looks beautiful.

I'm on my second round of chemo now and I have 8 more to go.

Cancer does suck.

started a new thread and will post updates there as I get them
but bad news in that the Cancer cam back with a vengeance.
so, we are back in the fight again and will turn this knife into a rallying cry to CUT Cancer to the bone and keep the fight alive...

please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.
