I, RICHARD J WHITE, HEREBY....

I, Richard J White, being of sound mind and body, do not wish to be kept alive artifically by artifical means.  Under NO circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of pinhead- politicians who couldn't pass ninth-grade biology or be a contestant on the show, " Are you smarter than a fifth grader", or by lawyers/doctors interested in simply running up the bills.  IF A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME PASSES AND I FAIL TO ASK FOR AT LEAST ONE OF THE FOLLOWING:

-Glass of wine
-Chocolate
-Margarita
-Chocolate
-Cold Beer
-Chocolate
-Chicken Fried Steak
-Cream Gravy
-Chocolate
-Mexican Food
-Chocolate
-French Fries
-Chocolate
-Pizza
-Chocolate
-Ice Cream
-Cup of Tea
-Chocolate
-Chocolate
-Lose my sense of humor
-Chocolate

It should be presumed that I won't ever get better.  When such a determination is reached, I, Richard J White, hereby instruct each of you gathered by my bedside and the attending physician to pull the plug, reel in the tubes, let " the fat lady sing"...and call it a day.

May He bless you always in all ways,
Rick  :)

even though we wish we could get rid of you that easily, (just kidding) please let me remind you that "pulling the plug" is illegal, immoral and simply isnt done. why?
because we dont know what great miracle is in store for us. if you beleive it,  god has something right around the corner that will turn everything around for you. and your journey is far from over. i am glad to see that your sense of humor is still shining through. dont give up hope, theres still lots of it floating around. you might want to see your doctor about your chocolate problem though!

P.S  go listen to an opera, after you get a headache you will change your mind about the fat lady singing stuff!

LOL. Sounds like you're of very sound mind and body.

And how about Chocolate? ; ] This post really was funny Rick.  I smiled so big because I know this kind of funny.  I use it too.  It's the kind of funny that's born of darkness even if momentary darkness. N' est-ce pas ?
I've just reread your other post and no, I did not realize you were the same person as Ameriboi.  I do remember his posts but then I often disappear for months at a time from the board.  Just didn't put the two together.  I read so many posts offering condolences for your relapse but it's not a relapse, is it.  Something like this happened to me around my sixteenth week.  Week twelve I was at 1,350, then at 16 it went to 17,000.  My doctor had me on daily infergen for 8 weeks.  Week 9 he moved me to three days a week.  When the sixteen week pcr came back I freaked and had him move me back to daily where I remained for more than a year. He also moved my riba from 800 to 1000.  CockSparrow asked you in your other post if you would consider changing interferons.  Why can't you before you lose anymore time?  I finally cleared at 21 weeks.  You've fought so hard and long Rick.  When will you see your doctor again?  You didn't come right out and say you were stopping.  Maybe you'll know more after this weekend.  Love and prayers....

If it be within in my power, I will hand feed you chocolate kisses from now into eternity.

I'm so honored that you want me to sing at your bedside! I'll help myself to some of the goodies that everyone's providing if you're no longer interested in them. I'll be prying the chocolate out of OH's hands as I sing.....
You're amazing, I'm so proud of your attitude.
Keep looking up,
Hugs,
