Wow where to start, First of all this page is not to cry out woe
is me, if you found it your probably a true fan of the site browsing
though every page and clicking on everything possible.
This page is just a little something I felt I needed to
write to get some of my feelings out. I will probably not even tell
the person it's about that it's even on the web.
Who's it about, my wife Amanda Krieger. Probably the most amazing
person I know. I met Amanda
March 13th 1998 and
we've been inseparable ever since I had found my soul mate after
never believing in such a thing. Just like any relationship we've
had our normal bullshit ups and
downs. In November of
1999 Amanda coughed up blood basically the beginning of our
nightmare; she underwent surgery to remove a lemon size tumor from
upper lobe of her left lung. It took a year for her to recover from
the physical and mental scars of her surgery.
Two weeks after her
left upper lobe was removed she was told it was cancer a
Leiomyosarcoma.
After the surgery she
saw an oncologist who basically acted as if it was nothing saying
you are cancer free. She continued getting check ups through the
years with a pulmonologist.
In July of 2003 we
got married had a fabulous honeymoon in
Alaska
and started planning our future together. Until February 2005 when
something was found once again, her cancer
had returned. I
really don't want to go into all the details
you can
read all that at her
website.
I owe a lot to my wife she's inspired me in many ways always
supported me in all my decisions. Amanda bought me my first camera
which basically started this site she never
complains when I go off at night taking pictures or going to
other states to run around
abandoned buildings
in fact in the past if it's warm she has joined me.
I have never met a
stronger person. She takes all the bullshit that she has to go
through
amazingly, 12 hour infusions test after test I only wish I could be
as strong as she is.
Amanda often asks me
if I wish I had never met her. I always respond with the truth,
through all
the tears all her pain and all my worries I won't trade it for
anything. As long as I am
with her that's all that matters. We have a long life
ahead of us together hopefully the speed bumps
are out of the way.
Amanda I love you.
Cancer SUCKS
I am sure anybody who reads this
page knows or knew somebody with cancer. It's an
epidemic and bullshit that a
cure has not been found. I truly feel for you.
