Cancer update: much better news. Back in the running, it would seem.

It seems that the fundamental problem yesterday was communication.

My new Oncologist is new.  She looks to me to be 30 or 35, she is picking up my case from the newly departed head of the department, and I'd say that the combination of relative inexperience, turmoil with the director departed, and that native language barrier, she's from China, she did a less than adequate job of transitioning me from my prior Dr. to her.

I never doubted that she was kind or competent.  And I thought she was clear that she was very pessimistic about my prospects.

But in an e-mail reply today she tells me that I am mistaken, that the same treatment plan from my prior oncologist continues to be the current plan, And that the prognosis has not changed.  I have every reason to take her at her word, and I do.

The variation, at least as told to me, is that based on the scan to take place September 9 or 10 it may be recommended that I receive several more chemo treatments in the attempt to further shrink the tumors prior to surgery.

But she states, and I accept, that the plan And prognosis  is still cure through liver resectioning operation.

Yay!

I have 1683 listed FB friends. If I can't drive that down to about 10, in the months the oncologist gives me to live, I've failed you all. Liberals, wake the f*ck up. As the young, heroic, Egyptian GOOGLE exec said 2 years ago, "Revolutions are not won on the internet. They are won in the streets."

Cancer update: oncologist no longer hopeful for me.... details.

[[[ btw: pls don't miss the TAB now #1 at the top of this site:
Thank you. ]]]


I've just finished my third chemo infusion and I'm on the bus back across town to the homeless shelter infirmary where I stay during the treatment, as I am too weak to manage out on the street , at my Creations Murder Vigil, where I would infinitely rather be. :-(

My oncologist is no longer hopeful.

My first oncologist at Howard University was not hopeful.

For the stage 4 cancer in my liver that I have, the expert literature on line is not hopeful.

My new oncologist at Georgetown, an institution which I have great confidence, is not hopeful, wanting me to schedule yet a 5th infusion, on the way to a desperate, low probability, full six month infusion, which was never discussed with me in months. She doesn't yet know that I would not accept the funding for that. That $60,000 is not worth giving me another year or two of life. Our children need that.

In the seven months since the tumors were discovered, it was only my second oncologist, in whom I have great confidence, that had expressed any hope for me.

We will move from speculation, estimate, statistical probability... To near certainty in about 25 days. That is when they will re-scan my liver to see if I've beaten the 5 to 1 odds, against it still being operable, and not rapidly terminal.

When many months ago I was told that once cancer hits your liver it kills you pretty quick, I never then or since asked why. But on an unrelated news item, it was talking about why it is so important what we eat, talking about what we eat and breathe, why this is so crucial, it is because every cell in the body replaces itself within 10 years or something like that. Every skin cell, as I understand it replaces itself within 30 days. For bone cells, it is much longer, it takes about 10 years for each and every bone to totally replace itself. Wanna know how long it takes every liver cell to totally replace itself, how long it takes liver to completely regenerate itself, a cycle that repeats throughout your entire life? Wanna know how fast that metabolism is for the liver? Just over four months. :-(

So I'm probably toast. Burnt toast, pretty quick. Lol.

I'm not sad about this. I'm not sad about the prospect of my physical imminent death. It is only my avatar.

I'm distraught, to tears that are welling up in me as I type now, that I'll likely not be here much longer to fight for a future for our next 200 billion kids, for all of creation. That's how likely not be around much longer to try and goad, inspire, cajole, harass... You to do the same.

About the prospect of that, at the moment, I am profoundly sad. Distraught. Uutterly distraught.

Now, back to work.

So much to do, so little time , it's all being decided within months, for my next 200 billion kids.

***** THIS IS WHAT I, Loving, BELIEVE. PLEASE READ. PLEASE? A Note to my Sacred, Beloved brother Joe.

 (a note to my Beloved, Sacred, (JW) Brother Joe; also note, the first selection, top of this web site, above, as:
)

[NOTE: Joe is a devout JW who I had the privilege of meeting, I don't know, five years ago, when tapped by St.Thomas, at his request, I was taking his 10 hours every day at the then, 28 year vigil at the White House.  Though our discussion on that day, Joe's and mine, was entirely respectful, deep, and thorough, I never expected to hear from him again.  Would you?  Would you expect a devout JW to wish to continue a dialogue with me?  ROFL!

But we have remained for all these years in a sacred, deep, respectful, open dialog for all these years.  And each time we have spoken, it has been a mystery to me that we did, that the dialogue was continuing, but it has.  About a week ago I received an e-mail from Joe that was sort of the e-mail I expected after our first dialog years ago, and after each of our dialogs since - tho I couldn't have predicted the exact content.

Joe clearly, surely, accurately, respectfully, Lovingly, HARSHLY... laid out a lot of things that he had heard from me over the years (including on this blog that he has faithfully followed, with OUTRAGE at times, I'm sure, brave soul) that I considered central, and preceded in this email to say, with complete respect, that everything I thought was ABSURD (my word).

And then he said in some detail what he believed.  And that enabled me to reply, in a fairly long and detailed e-mail, that in total love, respect, amazement...  That I found everything he said in that e-mail totally ABSURD!  And further, that though it was clear he loves me, and I love him, I could see no bases for either of us spending more time in our dialogue. 

Well, amazement again, this morning I received an e-mail reply from Joe.  It was fairly long.  But what I recall it saying was, in summary, in total - I love you, and I will not leave you at a time that you are facing death.  :-)
Following is my reply.  (now, I'm crying.)]

ps: Update about 10 hours later after the note below. ROFL (google it, if you don't know):

...........body - email reply to Joe .............
Joe, I am immensely stimulated by our recent dialogue...

Out of respect for our differences, so Divinely revealed in our last exchange, I thought of sharing none of it with you.  Out of respect.  I thought of trying to pick and choose.  I'll do neither.  I'll just make available to you what is in my mind, my Soul, and you can read all, none, or pick and choose.

1.  About 5 hours after I sent my last e-mail to you, a full day before you replied,  the following popped into my mind, and I thought of sending you a PS.  But I decided not to.  What occurred to me at that time, and this was really important to my own thinking, was that of all the sentences I wrote to you in that long e-mail, they could all have been replaced by just one of them.  The sentence that could have replaced everything else that I wrote, and have still, adequately, expressed the entirety of what I Care about in the world, have hoped for in the world, have faith in, Devote my every breath to ..., Can you guess?  Lol.  It was the sentence where I said - 
'I Care about loving a trillion times more than anything else.'  
Everything else I said in the e-mail, I think, was just a restatement of that one central factor in my life; that IS my life.  I Care about loving one trillion times more than I Care about anything else in the universe.

2.  Hours before your e-mail of today the following popped into my mind [all the ideas that I value just pop up that way. Godsend?   I pray so. ] - "paradigm."  You know the concept, probably better than I do.  As my mind involuntarily pondered how two, well intended, informed, diligent...  strivers for the Truth could see the world so profoundly differently .  It became obvious to me that this feature, (Paradigm forming) , necessity, trick, of the mind must be at work in you and me And our  profoundly different view of the Truth.  In a room full of people that have never seen the picture above, if they are asked, without them talking among themselves, to contemplate the picture, and then to say what it is - some will say old woman, some will say girl, and almost invariably they will be fiercely angry at those that see it differently, near OPPOSITE, than they do!!!!  Incomprehensible!!!!  Absurd!!!!  Blasphemy!!!!  LOL. 
 And this explains many if not all of our wars.

And some thoughts that have occurred to me since receiving your most recent e-mail below:

3.  I think that all the preventable suffering in the world is due to one factor, and one factor alone, regardless of how it might be stated:

...putting anything, anything, anything... within a trillion layers of the priority of Being Loving.  All, all, all, all preventable suffering is a result of this error.  This is the substance of all, all, all, Sin, Error.

4.  It is so clear to me that this was Jesus' teaching (#3 here), that this was his Gospel, this was His good news - that all, All, ALLLLLLLL... needless suffering on earth would be solved by this one thing - Placing loving at a trillion times higher priority than anything, than everything else. 
And even better, for each INDIVIDUAL person -

...if no one else on earth did it, but just one person did, that one, individual, person would instantly enter heaven on earth. 

And that has been my life experience-  totally, completely, exactly, entirely, intellectually, historically, religiously, experientially, absolutely.   
And it is pointed to by the words and lives of all the people throughout history for whom I have admiration, which is how I've found it, re-discovered it (we're ALL BORN knowing it; and our culture destroys our knowing it, within months of our birth, now).  "As you do unto the least of these you do unto me." "They will know you buy how you love..." "The greatest among you is the servant of all." "Do unto others all that you would have them do unto you." "The good shepherd lays down his life for his flock." "There is no greater love than to lay down your life for brother." The parable of the good shepherd. The parable of the woman who put in two farthings, more than all....

5.  Your e-mail to me below was such a surprise.  Such a joyful surprise.  Such a nice gift.  Maybe it should not have been seen by me as such a gift.  I mean, obviously I can't be sure of why you sent it.  Not that I try to be non obvious to you, anymore than you try to be non obvious to me.  But we are, clearly, non-obvious to each other.  LOL!

6.  Not being in your head, as I do not have the benefit of being, I cannot know whether the following is true or not.  But that you sent the e-mail below, and that you sent ME, a blasphemer (LOL) the e-mail below, it makes me wonder: is Joe's belief system really that different from mine?  What belief system?  That loving is one trillion times more important than anything else on earth.  That what ever God is, that what is one trillion times more important to Him or Her than EVERYTHING else, is that we be loving.  That to God: us being loving, is one trillion times more important than what we call him or her, or if we call him or her anything at all.  One trillion times more important than any individual or collective religious belief, tradition, dogma...  that we hold, OR THAT WE HOLD NONE AT ALL.

7.  So if my understanding is that being loving is one trillion times more important than anything else, than EVERYTHING else, does that mean I think nothing else is important?  Well, if so, I sure am wasting an awful lot of my life -studying, writing, advocating, sacrificing....  :-)

8.  But I suppose the only two things besides loving that I find important are:

A.  Staying loving,

B.  Becoming loving  -

....As A. and B. apply to me, as they apply to everyone born, and to be born. 

9.  And that if I, or God, or you Joe, or anyone... care about religion, that A and B are the entire and only, ONLY valid, Godly, reason why.  That the only right reason, 100% of the Right Reason for caring about Religion, the only reason God would care about a right religion, or that you or I or anyone's belief system, is:  
....that it does or does not, is optimal or suboptimal, in making and keeping an individual or a group -loving!!!!! 
That's it.

10.  And therefore, getting religion right is immensely important to me, to God.  But not for itself!!!!  Never, for itself!!!!!!!!!  Never one nanosecond, one breath... Religion is NEVER important for itself!!!!  Religion is Only important because, if we ever got religion right, it would be instrumental to what religion, and everything else, has so far failed to do - 
....reliably, predictably, effectively, powerfully, consistently, broadly, universally:

A. Make us all Loving,

B.  Prevent us from not being loving. 

Brother Joe, thank you for stimulating all these thoughts.  I'll treasure them forever.  I'll be posting them, shortly.  Thank you.  Thank you for helping me toward this Divine clarity!

Your brother forever, no matter what.  Loving

Dave Warren 

You, dear Start Loving, you are the quintessential "Indigen" and your sacrifice slowly moves into the collective meme so that maybe more will come to see ourselves as Indigenous not to one region or another or to any particular virgin native ground but to the entire Earth itself.

Makes me cry.

Nothing less from me will do.  Nothing less from me is acceptable.

Nor, from you, now.

ps:  If the Creator gave me the option to be reborn (after my work here is done), and gave me a choice, for PERSONAL reasons - I'd choose America - 100 years before Columbus landed.  Well, ok, I'd choose to be with Jesus, 0 C.E. or so, but America, 100 years before Columbus would be my 2nd choice.
