John Tenta diagnosed w/ Cancer.

Quote:

Ever since I've started posting on this board I've felt that I was among friends. Everyone has been courteous, and even protective of me. I appreciate that. Well my friends, I am not just "sick", I have been diagnosed with advanced bladder cancer. I have a large tumor on my bladder blocking my left kidney from functioning properly. That is the bad news. The good news is that I will never give up my hope of beating this. I have too much to live for. I love my family, and plan to walk my daughter down the aisle in 10 years(or more), and plan on being at my son's first major league baseball game(in about 10 years when his dream comes true). I have a strong faith in God but know whatever He has planned for me I must follow. Because of my faith, I am not afraid to die, but I don't want to die. This, of course will now be the biggest battle EVER in my life, but I am not afraid. I will be going through testing this week, and starting chemo/radiation soon after that. I do not feel like I'm dying, and thus, refuse to believe that I will. People have had cancer for years before finding out, and still survived. I am a little uncomfortable but not in pain leading me to believe I am a lot stronger than my illness. If you believe in God, please pray for me, and my family, and if you do not, just wish me well. Of course I will not be answering any questions from now on until i am feeling better. I am a "tough guy" and won't go without a heck of a fight. I wish you all well, and as I've said before, and now it's truer than ever- Crap happens!

:'(

That is from the Wrestlecrap message board.

I wish him nothing but the best in fighting this.

Wow, I wish him the best in his battle. Faith is a huge part in these things, and I really hope he overcomes his cancer. He seems like a really cool guy.

Get well soon John... :-(

Such a shame, I hope he gets through this.

<font color=33ffff>Damn, that sucks.
Hope all goes well, and Get Well Soon John....:y:</font>

I met John Tenta once, he was a nice guy. I would just like to wish him all the best and he makes a speedy recovery.

:y:

God damn, that sucks.

Thats bad to hear, but this seems not to hinder him and is good thats he is willing to fight this, his feelings towards this are high, therefore good.

All the best to John.

<font color=goldenrod>Get well soon John</font> :(

Allthe best in fighting this and I hope he will be ok

Best of Luck for John.

Gosh dang... Well, I'll be sure to include him in my prayers.

Hopefully it was caught in time and can be treated. Ran in to him once in the Langley 'Toyz R Us' store. What a huge man. Softspoken, nice guy.

Last I heard he was running a wrestling school in Florida.

That attitude is what will get him through this. My hopes and prayers go out to the man and his family.

John is a very nice guy,and more importantly,a very tough guy.

I send my best wishes to him,and to his family. Best of luck :y:

Holy crap, I hope he can pull through.
