End of an era for me

[Bob Wright]

The nurses told me that chemo would make me feel like I had the flu. They were right.

When Nita and I joined EastSide Baptist Church in 1991, we joined the Victory Sunday School Class shortly after. It was then in a state of transition and a class meeting was held. I was nominated, and elected, as class president. Later there was a resolution that I woold be permanent president. Now, with things being as they are regarding my health, I feel it is time to step down. So tomorrow morning, I will submit my resignation.

Sorry to hear that news. Hopefully the new president and you will talk often, and you can help him/her out with advice from time to time.

Hate to hear it Bob. Some things you do on a regular basis become ingrained, and difficult to give up. You still have your memories..................

 

[akbluz]

Bob, I know you will support the new president and will help him/her any way that you can.

One of the hardest things to do in life is to pass on responsibility to someone else... but often it is the best thing to do.
I'll bet you will still be as vital and as important there.

 

[Watertender]

Bob you are a bright spot on this forum and a good man. You will always be a vital part of your church and an asset to us here. I am proud to be associated with you on this site. God Bless You my friend!!

When I was a young man, my seniors (at work etc) told me: "You'll know when it's time......".
They were correct; and I never had a doubt, fear, or hesitation when I knew "it was time".
Easy Peasy (for ME to say)

Not anything I could add to all the comments in reaction to your post Bob. Except that I agree with all of them!

Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'

Sorry to hear about your health.

When I saw you were the author and your heading, I assumed you were switching from single actions to semi-autos!

 

[flattop44]

Bob, no doubt that God is with you in your decision to step down. You can always step up if they need help. God be with you always.

Well said Bob! Remember that you are still there to have your brain picked if things need any 'fixing'.

Are you eating properly? There are numerous sites with helpful information.

Bob you have my heart felt empathy. Motor on doing the things you love for as long as you can.
That is what my oldest son did last year until the end.

Jack is right, keep the protein going into your body. My wife was given 3-4 months in January, she hadn't eaten since Christmas. In January she was down to 114 pounds, in the last month she has started eating regular amounts of food, some of her strength is back she is at 119 pounds, we are at the end of March things are going well. We have been fighting cancer for 5 years.

Sorry to hear that Bob, replace it though with something you will enjoy. About ten years ago I was a scuba diver, scuba instructor and 18 years on Sheriff's Dept Dive Team. Docs found a spot on my lung that stopped all diving. Had to sell ALL my diving gear. The upside, I walked away with $28,000 after the sale. Oh yeah, I had a lot of dive gear. I now hunt, shoot and fish year round and swim everyday. Gotta keep moving. Good luck to you.
