Ken swears he has been active on the Knicks board for 12 years but it seems much longer. I have always been amazed, captivated and awed at Ken's passion and his amazingly positive outlook. Ken is a main factor in me putting up this board in the first place and now after one medical crisis after another Ken faces his biggest challenge of them all.
I am determined that Ken not fight this alone. I know all the emotional stages of serious illness so this is the place for Kent to rant, vent, complain, seek comfort or information and to just share his fight amongst friends he has never met in person. It's really quite an amazing dynamic that we can feel so deeply for somebody we could not recognize in person.
I am asking all of you to take time out of your busy lives to be there for Ken. If the situation was reversed he'd be first in line to be there for you.
Bill

Excellent idea Bill! I proudly stand in Ken's Corner, and I know he is going to win.

I didn't know if I could reach this site with my I phone app, but there it is. I'm hoping to be a frequent contributor, and for Ken's sake I'm going to be optimistic here, even when the Knicks lose by twenty and I see Isiah lurking around the Garden!

Never though in a million years bonds could be made off of fans of the Knicks turned into brothers who got your back in spirit and in real life, like we do here.
Ken, your gonna beat it and I got ya back.

Ken, we'll be here with you, wearing the rose colored glasses, drinking the Kool Aid, dissing Fat-Eddie-Skinny, like you've nearly always been there for us.
Love you, hang in there brother.

Ken:
Hope your spirits are good and your attitude is positive. You are a winner and your teammates are here watching your back.

If the situation was reversed he'd be first in line to be there for you. Bill To All My Friends: I cannot ever express the sentiments that I am feeling for all of you in words. To date, not much has changed with me since I posted on the "discussion" board, only that I have been extraordinarily tired due to the two chemo meds that I have since started. Basically, the dizziness and whatever will be greatly improved by next week, as my oncologist prescribed me something that I cannot quite pronounce, but is akin to Reglan (Maybe Rx knows about this medication and if so, can probably spell it correctly!) Bill setting up this 'niche' in our collective Knicks oasis here, was borne from a place that brothers have for each other, even brothers who have not ever personally met, but I fully intend to make a few trips when I am feeling a bit better. To all of you. I have appreciated the outpouring of support, love, and camaraderie that I have never experienced anywhere on-line, possibly off-line. I have all the optimism in the world that I have doggedly held on for our Knicks, for myself. May God Bless All of You for this, and I expect that will be posting my various theories with Jay, Mouse, Babylon, Bill, Rx, Will and everyone else who loves this freaking team as much as I love them! Time for a bit of "toes up" time, but remember, Kool-Aid has been statistically shown to cause less cavities than Coca-Cola ; ) Always, Ken

Take care of yourself, Ken, get your rest, and keep your strength up. I think the word you're looking for is metoclopramide. Don't be so sure I spelled it right though!

Get well Ken. I hope the chemo does not take too much out of you. This board needs you.

Ken If you can just drop us a line to let us know how things are going. Guys, I think you know that I am doing pretty well, based on my plethora of posts in the last few days...Bill, I am sory I haven't posted much in Pooh Corner, but know that there will be a time I will be needing this little haven--I hope I may not be a distraction to our collective arguments about Bob Lanier being the ultimate weapon versus fat Shaq, LOL! Rx: Yes, you were right about that medication--which is the one I am prescribed. Guys, if you notice grammar errors in my posts, please know that my eyes have dimmed a bit--not due to the cancer, but due to my tomfoolery concerning getting sheek new eyewear. I have tried to avoid an opthamologist for 20 years, which may be the problem. Otherwise, I am hanging in. Nothing bad to report, except that I am starting to grow hair in unsightly places--thank heavens none of you need to see this--only the Irish waif, and she claims to not notice. Liar. Liar. Liaress. Love you all, Ken
