I keep coming back to this thread, trying to think of something to say after the latest update and the words aren't coming to me. Words fail except to say that I'm hoping for a winning outcome for Mike.

Swamper, I just read the sad news about Mike. I am so very sorry for him and his family. Please let him know that he is in my thoughts and prayers.

I just logged in today for the first time in over a month, and I'm saddened to discover such terrible news. It's hard to find words. I hope that the alternative treatment will work out for him and that he'll soon be back in the swamps with his ghosts, where he belongs. My thoughts are with Mike and his family.
I hope Mike makes a speedy recovery, and I know that all of OB is with him in prayer.

I just read the latest news about Mike. My heart is so saddened. I will continue to pray for Mike knowing that there are alternative treatments available. We each have to seek what is right for ourselves.

Mike if you read this message..hold on tight, keep positive thoughts and know you have many friends here at OB praying for you.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Hey Mike, it's great to hear from you. Your 3 week treatment sounds fascinating and I'm so relieved that you don't have to go through chemo. We've missed you and will continue to pray for your complete and speedy recovery. Keep that positive attitude.
