Goodbye, uncle phil (NSFW - he would have wanted it that way)

get well soon, Uncle Phil!

 

my dear wife, Connie, just got off the phone with Phil's honey Marilyn... my dear friends, he's still in the hospital and they've brought in hospice care... there is no good news and we feel the worst... as i cry on my wife's shoulder i want to remember what joy this man brought to our lives... please pray for this dear dear man and his loving wife

 

I'm assuming from the entirety of your post that "hospice care" is not a good thing.

My thoughts and prayers are with you, uncle phil. Seriously.

Thanks for updating us, hankster.

 

We love our Uncle Phil and hope he'll be better soon! Tell him we miss him here and are sending positive, healing vibes to him.
God Bless you dear Uncle!!!

 

hankster know that we care and thank you for sharing this delicate information.

 

thank you for updating us with this news, as regrettable as it sounds.
if you are able, let him know that we are thinking of him over here.

 

Thank you for these updates. I am hoping for the best.. good to know that this place is full of love.

 

damn it

 

Well shit. Thanks for keeping us updated hankster. Id there is anything i can do please let me know

 

This is hard to read.

Fuck cancer.

chin up, phil ol' boy. I love you, man.....

 

I hope someone can bring him in some access to TFP so he knows how much he is being thought of daily. At least with hospice, that means that they're going to make sure he's feelin' as little pain as possible to try to hang on as long as he wants to/is able to. I have friends at that hospice and they're amazing...

May this part of his journey be as full of friends and family, warm thoughts, and comfort as possible.
Rock on, my favorite slightly dirty old man, you are thought of with love, laughter, and respect.

 

This news is heartbreaking. Phil was the first TFPer to reach out to me on a personal level 10 years ago. I deeply regret that I have never managed a face-to-face with him. Love him like a brother!

Damn - I just saw this thread and learned of this situation. Here's hoping for the best out of this situation.

 

When i private messaged phil back in April,
he said to me, "be brave, little grasshopper."

♥ you Phil - ♥ to all.

 

FUCK CANCER, FUCK HOSPICE CARE.... FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK fuck........ No pain for unclephil, soft music playing in the room, or rockin, fill the room with love and whispers of fulfillment coming, his favorite kind, Fuck hospice, respect it, but fuck it...... I was here Nov 2010 with my husbands beloved step-mother, it was a beautifully peaceful place, but not where one wanted to be...... fuck cancer, ah shit. Everything, everything, why didn't I come back sooner, so close now I could probably reach out and touch him. Damn-it. Tell him how many lives he touched, mine was, though I only knew him through TFP, to me it felt like so much more, if felt like a real uncle. I'm selfish in my post here, selfish because I want more, just for me to be there again, I want to go back and be here for the last two years I missed, I'm selfish for a man I only knew through his words alone and how they altered my very perception of reality. Fuck cancer, I am but a stranger in his life, but he has been so much more in mine, when I was in a tough place, his humor, his word game play, his daily words meant more to me than I realized, I weep for my own lose, selfishly, sorry but I am selfish I wanted more, I want more, as I am sure all those around him do. I know you all don't know me, not really, and I know I only know you all through this media, but I am not good at goodbye, don't say them, don't believe in them, only good night, until the next sun shines from another dimension, another plane of reality. I'm sorry if I have offended anyone with my ranting, I am angry. and brokenhearted. never stop fighting it's all you got, till it's gone.

My thoughts and prayers are with you uncle phil and all those you have loved and those who love you.
