RE: What's Santa Bringing You?
I guess I ask for a different present than most. In 2002 my mother was diagnosed with stage IV brain cancer around Christmas time. They removed a tumor the size ofa pool ball out of her brain and gave her 9 months to live. All Ive ever asked for Christmas is that thebig man above keep her healthy for another year. She's made it 6 years and gives hope to hundreds of people and gives hope to many who have the cancer she had. I don't know how she keeps up with the emails, support groups and charity events that she speaks at to give people hope. If you saw her, you never would have known she had such deadly cancer, she is95% of what she was before the cancer. I'll never ask for another Christmas present for myself again as long a Santa keeps bringer her health.

tonight we are celebrating my best friends 1 yr anniversay since he collapsed and went to the hospital. They found a large tumor in his brain as well. I spent most of the holidays in hospital with a friend i thought id never get to talk to again. I know the pain. But he is out is doing well, and we are hoping that in a few years he will be back to normal. People that see him now could never tell that just a year ago the doctors gave him 6 weeks to live. He is only 26 so were hoping he gets to be around for a lot longer.
Oh and my dad got tired of me barrowing his shotguns to bird hunt and shoot skeet, so hegot me a new Browning Citori, i was floored!!!

Well I got my fingers crossed for a Summit Viper SS climber and a Savage .17hmr. I was given the bass pro after thanksgiving sales paper and I circled just about everything in it but these 2 had the special "stars" beside them.
