You know life can be very confusing/harsh at times , and you realize that there are times when your just not ready.

Here I am pretty much and enjoying life , enjoying my wife well she has been losing weight and has what they called severe COPD we have been dealing with this for a long time , she is on oxygen 24/7- - - like I also said she is dropping weight she was 170 pounds and she is now 80 pounds. just looks so frail. she sleeps probably 19 hours out of the day, I can just see her slipping away right in front of me.

Well had to get her to the hospital last Wednesday morning , needless to say not good. The Dr at least was straight up instead of sugar coating. We thought maybe with her losing so much weight in a short amount of time could be Cancer eating her up, They did a total body cat scan and thank God came back clean.

Yet he did tell her she had a lot of things that was not fixable. He told her that she was in what they call Severe COPD -- - END , which is exactly what it sounds like as to what that might mean.it means it's done can't get any worse & nothing they can do- - her lungs are totally shot. Just a matter of time which sucks all we can do is just wait.

She is at a point as to where she can't have any kind of surgery chances are is she will never male it off the table. So he talked to us and ask us what we wanted when things happen so it comes down to she will be a DNR.
He said if things start to go then if they try to do any CPR they would crush/break all ger ribs would not be pretty, you break those ribs then chances are they would puncture her lungs.

Soooo they are also very concerned about her weight saying she can't lose any more weight cause if she loses more then you have got where her organs will shut sown. The whole thing my friends is just a lose , lose situation , we have brought in Midland home health they doing Occup Theraphy , Physical Therapy and Hospice will be coming in soon.

I guess just needing to get this off my chest it's a lot to take in - - feeling so helpless knowing nothing we can do. Also makes me realize how simple the game of Basketball really is comparred to fighting for life , Life can be so rough at times makes reality sit in.

@kjayhawks2.0 Wow what a match , KU advances to sweet sixteen, jumping out 2- --0----Miami fights back wins the third and then slugfest in the fourth but we pull it out

I'm just as glad to see Flory staying out of serious foul trouble early in games. Can't block shots from the bench

Bill Self haters catching some heat from former players and other fans. Scott Pollard was quoted saying KU fans are just spoiled, others are saying some KU fans better be careful for what they ask for; - - -some UNC fans said making the NCAA tourney is a hell of a lot better then the NIT

Other UNC fans AND Duke fans saying that KU has never had 20 loss Seasons like they have had , some saying hell there was some UNC fans were wanting Roy Williams run out of Carolina and look what they ended up with, I have to agree with Scott and others KU fans well some anyways are just spoiled they have un realistic takes - -winning NCAA championships just aren't given to you on a silver platter. there is a lot that goes into that.- -Like who is playing their best ball , the health of the team , a team's draw . bad shooting nights , ya da , ya da , ya da

@nuleafjhawk Oh , ok my friend had no idea about that--- greatly appreciated,

You know what ? --I've just know no matter what, I'm going to be ok God is my rock and is and will be with me if things get worse, he will give me the strength that I need to make it through.

He is always with us and IF he thinks the wife has been through enough pain and suffering and takes heer home- -then I know she is in true bliss and couldn't be happier and knowing that I would be also for her --I'm going to be just fine. Thank you so much for your thoughts buddy

Man Tre is just solid- - --very solid , really have grown to like him - -alot , then we have " THE DAWG ' I actually think Melvin has gotten better with his three point shooting , and when he gets out on the break -- - -look out. NOW let's hope from last nights game take away Kohl is MAYBE coming out of that Season long drought on his three, if we can get some consistency from him just makes us that more dangerous , really pulling for Kohl/

Good to hear Coach Self for a change saying Darryn is doing good and feeling fine

@BeddieKU23 Ya I've read so many articles that Stokes just isn't worth the head ache. Almost sounds like stokes is a me , m , me type of guy - lot of distractions, been in fights with other kids at his school- -think there is a good chance the negatives out weighs the positive I'm good and I know it ---could be a real cancer to the other players on the team on AND off the court.

He obviously loves the attention as this recruiting should be over really don't believe he is any closer to announcing then when it first started. Even heard good chance in the end he never steps foot on any College court. that he will end up sitting out of College ball for a year play across the waters then enter for the NBA. just don't think with all this he is worth it --good talent just to much baggage/drama following him- -don't want him causing problems with fellow team mates.

@stoptheflop One of the Major flaws which will probably cost us tomorrow but it has reared it's ugly head all year long is- ---the dam long ass scoring droughts with sloppy forced pass & shots-- just pisses the f - - -off. you can take it to the bank we will go through one of these which will cost us dearly against St John's Think we need to make more of an effort to get Flory involved early in the game.

I need to see Flory go right at Zuby be aggressive and make Zuby defend early. I think we are starting to fall into the old thing again of just having the ball in Darryn's and everybody else just standing around waiting for Darryn make a play. while the rest of the team stands around and slosh's through sludge

@Jayhawk_69 Thank you. you know people say you better prepare yourself but you can never really prepare yourself for something like this you may think your ready but when it hits it just like a swift kick to the ya.-- thank you again

Sorry, I know this doesn't really pertain to us directly but was killing time till our game.

Just got to say these fricking Duke fans arrogance is just stifling man-- -they always think they get fouled every trip down the floor , they never foul , seems like the got the three referees these one's tonight missed blatant clear as a full moon at night-- - Duke players bulldoxing Florida nothing-- -Florida same type of play and it's a charge.

Ahh yes always refreshing to play a five on Eight.

@nuleafjhawk makes it even harder and wonder when you see him dressed out and then during time outs you see him bouncing around outside of the huddle and giggling talking to other players,

I think there is more going on then what we know , I think his handler's/agent have their arms in up to their elbows deep in this

Basically one thing to say : -- forty three minutes , - - - -- thirty six points , - - - -9/15 three point shooting ,-- -- -seven rebounds - - --four assists- ---a steal - - --& ZERO TURNOVERS. ----Fricking forty three minutes and ZERO TURNOVERS plus really good defense- - --that's what's called a DAWG -- Nuff Said - ---ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

OK, here is the thing . If you really wanna know the truth- - -I really don't think Darryn has hardly ANY SAY in this whole dam thing. If that is true then that's truly sad. I mean I'm feeling that the show is being totally run by mommy and daddy. This kid has had his decisions made probably for almost entire time, by Mom & Dad and agents so on and so on.

So now Darryn is what 18 ? - 19 years old? -- and I think the parents are still wanting to make the decisions , Darryn is an adult now I am beginning to think the wrong people are still trying to tell Darryn make the decisions. IF that's the case and Darryn wants to play then these agents AND THE PARENTS need to step back and let it go. He is a grown man starting his own life, his future is in front of him. The longer he sits the more he faces the possibility of his value going down. I think the wrong people right now are still making the decisions

@DCHawker Dybansta is going to get his, It's Saunders that worries me, Dybansta is getting his focus on the others--- - - shut them down don't leet some un known have a career night Dybansta going to find out how the Phog can be

@BeddieKU23 .that's our DAWG- -- -love this guy hit a home run with Council

@kjayhawks2.0 Tre has been sick too and not practing
g. Also coming off an infection from a root canal

@Texas-Hawk-10 Mercy , dam it's been a rough year Saunders ACL- --now Toppin ACL. I'm not sure if Tech makes the tourney now ---BYU probably out always had to laugh when people say Basketball is a on contact sport Anyone who has eve played the game knows much better

@approxinfinity Flory as of right now has to improve quite a bit on the offensive end as he is not going to be able to dunk everything in the NBA he has to have some kind of shot other then dunking he id kind of like Doke another big who had no shot just dunks that's not going to cut it in the NBA

Not sure if this has been brought up today or not so just wanted to throw this out very interesting/funny,

So I guess last night after the game and people were leaving there was a little road rage going on.

So here is the thing , I was listening to the podast that uses the Name of ( Could be wrong ) it's a KU podcast. Anyways they were on talking about the game. and one of the guys said Oh I guess there is a fan who actually that wants to call in and talk to us about some road rage after the game

So I guess this guy and some friends were trying to leave saying some about they were in a lot 90 ?-- Anyways you know the general rule is in congested traffic you move a little - - let a car in and then move a little -- let a car in so on and so on. Well I guess there was this white BMW in front and was sittin there and had let three cars in without moving - -- -well there was a car behind the BMW trying to move up , well the car this car was in with his friends said they were just trying to cut over to the other side of traffic and the car behind the BMW wouldn't let them move over pulling up just enough to not let them through lol .

So these guys had their window down and so did the car behind the BMW so they hollered one to the car and said hey can we slide through tellin the car behind the BMW they was wanting to get out to nineteenth , Then they got to looking a little closer and the driver was wearing a suit and tie. They started thinking now who would wear a suit and tie to a basketball game ?

So he looked again and said thought he recognized him -- so he hollered HEY aren't you Fran Fricella ? -the guy behind the BMW hollered back and said -- - YES- --YES I am and I'm not letting you through and F - - - the Jayhawks they said Jason the announcer of the game was in the passenger seat just laughing his ass off and Fran said F - - - YOUR JAYHAWKS -- - --- all I can say is Wow.
