Mickey71's Collecting/CANCER update

Hello everyone,
I will address the Collecting 1st because it's a card forum. Have not been doing to much on the card front lately. Haven't really had the energy to really get into cards like I'm used to. I did list some auctions on EBAY last night/they are auction format and my ID is danny711. I don't know how to put a link to them. I had these auctions already set so it was no work at all to list them. Also, financially I've had to shift my priorities due to my illness....lots of bills and missing lots of work.

Concerning my cancer....1st of all I'd like to thank the board members as many have been PM'ing me and asking how I've been doing and sending messages of hope and good wishes. The treatment has been going well. I haven't been sick very often/ just alot of fatigue. I'm in chemo all day this week, so it's a rough week. This is the beginning of my 3rd 21 day cycle of chemo. My levels of cancer in my body have went down dramatically...so the treatment is working.

Once again, thank you to everyone for their prayers and well wishes for me and my family. They are very much appreciated. I want to wish each and every member a very Merry Christmas and safe holiday season.

    Good to hear from you Danny, good to see you're knocking this thing down. Thanks again for the advice and looking at that '52 high at the card show last month. I totally trust your judgement and knowledge of cards and wouldn't have bought it if you said so. Haven't got it graded yet but it is nicer than I thought. I think about you often and can't wait until you get your strength back and beat this thing. Take care. Doug

    Danny, great to hear from you. Positive thoughts sent your way--keep fighting the good fight.

    When you get bored, bust open that 85 Donny set and pull out a Clemens and Puckett 10.
