Vibes for Stevo's dad, R.I.P. Big Tuna Bill

Post by DukePA » July 6th, 2011, 11:09 pm

Stevo is flying out to San Diego tomorrow to be with his dad, Big Tuna Bill. Bill has been fighting an aggressive head and neck cancer for 2 years. He was admitted today with pneumonia. Sadly, the cancer has already spread to his right lung. I fucking hate cancer. So, Big Tuna and Stevo need your vibes. Thanks kids. Love you guys. (forgive my typos. I suck at phone posting :) )

I had no idea this was going on with your family for so long. What torture for all involved. Safe and trouble free travel to San Diego, Steve. Nothing will boost your dad's spirits more than seeing you right there beside him. He'll actually feel his son's youth and strength and draw on it. This is something I know for certain.

Keep us informed. Love to all of you with plenty of vibes on top!
Love, Ima

Vibes and prayers for Stevo, his dad, DPA, and all the family. Cancer is horrible, and there's so much pain for all involved.

DPA, you get a pass for your typing, at least from me. :-B :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :pray: :pray: :pray: :pray: :pray: :pray: :ymhug: :ymhug: :ymhug: :ymhug: :ymhug: :ymhug:

Thanks everyone! Stevo is on his way to Phoenix then onto San Diego. Here's a link to Bill's website. He has a fishing talk radio show in California.

Bill is a great guy. I hate he is going through this. Stevo is an only child. This won't be easy for him or Donna and Bill's wife, Trudy (I haven't met he). Bless them all. :ymhug: I love both of them. :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :YMPRAY: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard:

Stevo is having an excellent visit with his dad and Big Tuna's wife, Trudy. They put in a chest tube and were able to drain fluid so he is barely coughing now, but there is a significant amount of tumor in his right lung that is a recent development :( The good news though, is that they are putting in a feeding tube today which they wouldn't do without some hope of surviving a little while longer. Bill should be able to go home tomorrow.

I hope they are able to keep him comfortable. We're still keeping our vibe vigil going. I'm thinking ahead to when Stevo has to come home. Leaving is going to be rough on them all. We'll need airborne mega vibes for everybody then. So keep us informed. This just stinks! :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard:
