Ser forte e meu amigo chegar bem mais cedo!

I don't know you Parofes but since you're a climber, you must be someone I'd like to be friends with Good vibes coming your way from Wyoming! Don't give up, I'm sure you know how to fight.

I was actually wondering where you were lately. I assumed you had not logged in (until recently) because of some expedition.

Hang in their buddy! If I could physically be there right now I'd do my best to create as much cheer as possible.
Stay strong, don't give up, the community is wishing you the best. And if possible, stay positive.

The dark shadows of the world are upon you. But be the small light that exists at the top.

So sorry to hear this. I hope a match if found soon. I will use my extensive powers of mental telepathy to send good vibes your way.

Paulo, you have inspired some of us in many things, including to get on the donor list. Happier times will return, meu amigo.

I hope your memories bring you to the mountains!

Hey Paulo,

I want to repeat everything Sarah says. She has a way with words, but these are my own.

I know you're feeling like crap right now, but you need to know that you have thousands of friends that are thinking of you and are standing with you. You have an inner strength that will beat this damned disease. Think of all the mountains that you have climbed. Think of all the cold nights that you have spent. Think of all the times that you weren't sure if you were ever coming back home. Those are the moments that have made you what you are. You will come home, stronger and a better man than ever. And, we will all be smiling with you.

A big hug my friend.
Marc

“Knock, And He'll open the door ...
Vanish, And He'll make you shine like the sun.

Fall, And He'll raise you to the heavens ...
Become nothing, And He'll turn you into EVERYTHING.”

Sarah and Larry have summed up my thoughts very well. Wishing you all the best, Paulo!

Paulo,

Hang in there. There is a family here backing you. Remember, no matter how dark the darkness is, there is always light. Just gotta perservere.

I am allways thinking of you, man !
SOIS FORT !

When Parofes put up an article on his declining health I was shocked.......it is sad to see such an outdoor enthusist delt a terrible hand. Keep your head up high, never give up, never surrender, and fight the good fight buddy.

May you heal quickly,

Hi Paulo, best wishes from the Netherlands. For most people, leading their daily lives with their daily worries and small problems, it is hard to understand what you are going through when a serious illness comes your way. I think this picture (from a website called XKCD) does a good job at explaining it:



All the people who posted in this thread, and many more SPers I am sure, hope to make you feel a little less alone in that awful grey area in the figure.

All the best wishes, and just know that, somewhere in the Netherlands, although we've never met, someone is a little worried for you too.

Hi Paulo, here are our best wishes for soon getting a bone marrow match, and a speedy recovery. We need you here on SP!

Hey Paulo, best wishes and good vibes for you!
