  Hey, Tom. We are all one, we have always been and will always be one, so even if the worst happens, know that we are eternal (the real US, the real Self). Be in the present moment, since it is all we have. Thanks for sharing your story, much love. ❤

  Very beautiful Tom, thank you for this video and for you. There is a Portuguese word that captures a bit of the emotion you describe or being both joyful and sad at the same time: Saudade. “…a deep emotional state of nostalgic or profound melancholic longing for an absent something or someone that one loves. Moreover, it often carries a repressed knowledge that the object of longing might never return.” Saudade “brings sad and happy feelings altogether, sadness for missing and happiness for having experienced the feeling.” They believe saudade is sometimes a welcomed thing. It brings pleasure, even if the pleasure is laced with pain.

My warmest thoughts are with you and your family as you approach another treatment plan. Your comments about emotional songs rang true. When I received my diagnosis, I made a playlist of all the sounds that brought memories forward. You must be so proud of your son and his talent. Agreed, utter mess! Many more good days!

  Tom, right now my heart is sad to see this has evolved. You are an incredible man, with an attitude that is the same. It's just never fair, but your gift of telling us all your story, has me in awe of how you process it. You truly are so inspiring to us, who are praying and so holding hope for you. Thank you for sharing and your honesty. Eric, what a gift of words to music you have. I am so glad you played this song here for us Tom. May blessings be yours through all of this.

  Echoing Chery's and other comments here especially around the importance of simplicity which is to be found in slowing down and letting go: of concerns, of worries and of the reactive impulse to bring under control the myriad conditions of daily life that we believe we should and must control in order for all to be well. We are in control of much less than we believe; behind the messy and complicated reality of daily life exists another reality exemplified by experiencing the basic senses of sound, sight, smell, touch and taste that we all share.

  Hi Tom, I live in South Africa. The sun is always shining here and there is always the risk of developing skin cancer if you have a light skin. I developed a growth on the lower eye lid of my right eye. I do not know if it is cancer or just a benign growth but I went on a high nutrition diet for about two months and the growth have shrunk noticeably. I would like to share the diet with you. The soup Ingredients: - two handfuls of Chopped broccoli, one chopped onion (purple), two bags of green tea, two pinches of mixed herbs, two sticks of cut celery, Two handfuls of frozen and crushed spinach or kale, half a table spoon of crushed garlic, Three shakes of black pepper, seven shakes of turmeric, two tablespoons full of apple cider vinegar (with the mother), one bag of white onion powder soup for flavour, a hand full of cooked red speckled beans and a handful of cooked mince meat. Just add all the ingredients in a pot, add boiling water and switch the stove on high till the water boils. Then lower the heat until the water simmer, Let the soup simmer for an hour. The soup is now ready. I would only drink water in the morning. At 12h00 I would start eating the soup. There will be about two helpings that you can eat in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame. I also ate a fruit salad every day in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame. (Note: Apparently turmeric reduces the effect of some chemotherapy drugs and thus should not be taken during chemotherapy.) During the rest of the week I would also eat food that contains vitamin D like avocado’s, mushrooms, liver and eggs in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame. It seems to be working for me, maybe it will also work for you. I pray to God the Father in the name of Jesus Christ that you will be healed. Amen. I would also like to share the following six videos with you about salvation and two videos about evolution: Evolution vs. God kzread.info/dash/bejne/p5eTuZuPpN2wYKQ.html DESTROYING Evolution In Under 3 Minutes kzread.info/dash/bejne/pYuZxbKworTcYsY.html Watch the Holy Spirit Work in Her Heart (Very Moving) kzread.info/dash/bejne/m3Z50atrpZnReaw.html Fearing The Lord, God’s Discipline & Sharing The Gospel kzread.info/dash/bejne/lnmHl7mQZpmzotI.html A Clear Gospel Presentation by Pastor Steven Anderson - How to go to Heaven kzread.info/dash/bejne/e4x5x6-Qc9vforQ.html The Plan of Salvation kzread.info/dash/bejne/gqGfyrSGgNnaj5M.html How to Get Saved kzread.info/dash/bejne/k56Lxs2uptW6ZtY.html The Truth About Hell (Selected Scriptures) kzread.info/dash/bejne/c4quxMqYlK_XY9Y.html Best regards Chris “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life”.

  Oh, cream cheese. Dairy is highly inflammatory and they say 95% of the Asian population is lactose-intolerant, and you are Asian, prof, and more than likely lactose-intolerant. I was in denial about my lactose-intolerance until I decided to go vegan last Veganuary, and since, my terrible muscle pain, tightness and inflammation in my neck, back and shoulder area, that I’ve suffered for thirty years, is 95% GONE. And my chronic, inflamed, painful, bleeding hemorrhoids haven’t flared up since. I’m pretty sure it was the dairy. That half and half I’d have with my coffee twice a day was wreaking havoc on my health. I feel awesome and normal now and will never, ever go back to eating animal products again, if I can help it. Perhaps you should look into a plant-based diet. At least cut-out the dairy, which is full of hormones from the momma cows and is linked to prostate cancer, breast cancer, allergies, asthma, etc. Food is medicine. Best wishes!

  My first diagnosis was stage 3 colon cancer adenocarcinoma. With the spread, I am at stage 4 metastatic. Later this week, a recent pathology may shed further light. I wish you only positive sentiments as you take this challenge. And I'm thankful that you took the time to hear my experiences.

  @tomlee6926 Thank you very much for your kind and prompt reply. I was touched. An update about my diagnosis. The Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology gave the Squamous Cell Carcinoma. But today, I received the True Cut core tissue biopsy result. This, however, gave a diagnosis of Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma. It's not very encouraging, but it is what it is. They have not yet located the primary.

  I have always appreciated and admired your long view of things, your ability to see the whole forest and find goodness in it, even if some isolated trees are suboptimal. I noticed it first in the business world while working with you at a small, scrappy, sputtering company that had a thousand broken parts, but which made a product that was fundamentally good for humanity. It was your faith in the latter that always drove you, and it rubbed off on the people who worked under you. None of us were all-stars recruited from Top Ten business schools. We came from University of Guelph, Brock and Queens, and Rutgers, New Jersey. But like Billy Bean's Oakland A's from Moneyball, you brought out the best in us, such that we outcompeted rivals with ten times our budget. Something you said in a meeting while ruminating on your role as a manager stuck with me: "Find out what each person on your team loves doing, and assign them jobs that let them do that thing." I benefited immensely from that approach, as I got be who I was, itching to use the skills I'd been trained on in a practical setting. I noticed your forest philosophy a decade later when I had the privilege to teach your children. Your steady navigation at the helm of their upbringing was evident in their pleasant demeanors, and in their healthy, long-term view of their path through life as they knew it at age 16. And now, in your reflections on challenges to your health, filmed in a literal forest, I notice these same nuggets of practical philosophy. Never denying the terrible spots in your life, but highlighting the good spots so that they simply outshine them. I like that you don't resort to cheesy quotables one might see on a classroom poster, but talk about the tangible goodness of wood burning stoves, the crispness of a sunny day in winter, the pin-up of cities where you've had meaningful encounters with people, and the music composed by your own son. (Yes, I stayed for the credits!) Your notion of an anti-bucket list is refreshing, as is your diatribe against airports and the artificial comforts of lounges and early boarding that they "offer". I hope your surgeries fulfil their intentions and that you continue to fulfil yours.

  It is great to see you walking after recent surgery. You are a man of science, like I am and I hear you are retired. Throughout my many cancers, I always tried to stay busy, especially the mind. In my younger years, I kept going to engineering classes at uni, often times straight from radiotherapy. Later on, I kept working, although less. I found it helpful to keep the mind away from being a patient all the time, away from having cancer, almost like becoming cancer. 13 years, a quarter of my life I am fighting some kind of cancer. My recent one, I took on and documented with metabolic treatment. It got me in remission. So when people advised me to stop everything, and fully 'concentrate' on the disease and healing, it did not work for me. Anyway, that is not (medical) advise in any way, it is more how I experienced it, consider it my 2 cents of a person that knows a thing or two about cancer, unfortunately. Good luck in further recovery and for your next operation.
