Well All,
 
This could be my last posting for a while, as I am presently going through chemotherapy for stage 4 esophageal cancer and don't know how I will be feeling from day to day and want to concentrate on getting my health back. So, you all know by now that I am very much a Christian, mostly a Biblicist have studied the bible almost daily for the past 20+ years, and so this one is for the Lord. He very well may be testing me, or maybe calling me to His loving presence, but no matter the case this one is for His loving work on the cross, for us all. I hope you will enjoy it and sorry about just using loops and samples, but I live in a condo complex and we have rules here that keep me from playing my instruments, plus the fact that I have really bad arthritis doesn't help any. So, enjoy, pray for me and for one another and show love to everyone, everyday.

John,
  Really sorry to learn of your bad news. I'll be praying for you too. :) Yes get well very soon. health is the most important thing.
 
Really nice to have an upbeat piece of music as your last for a while. I've enjoyed all of your tracks. This once is also enjoyable. It does sound like it's peaking very bad when it turns rocky. but I really like the uplifting feel of this tune.
 All the very best with everything.

John. I pray the Lord would lay His healing hands on you and rid you of this ailment. He knows your heart, and knows you have been faithful to Him. He will be faithful as well. For purely selfish reasons, I pray that He restores you to full health so that you can continue to bless us with your wonderful arrangements. Please know that your friends here are thinking of you.

Sounds good John, but the transitions are rough. I hope you can pull through. Watch the movie "Heaven is for real." It's out on DVD now. Also, research injected "vitamin C." There are studies showing its effectiveness against cancer, however since the drug companies can't make money on it, it's soft pedaled...

Great stuff.  I agree with the peaking, but the music pushes thru anyway.
One quick comment...and I'll keep things quiet.  This aint no test or being called home.  The enemy (aka punk) is trying to take you out, since he knows where your heart is at.  God doesn't need a test, cause he knows your heart too and needs you to finish your work here.
Be blessed and let those cancer symptoms go elsewhere.  Prayers from Kentucky.

Dang...this is great music.

To All Who Care,
Thank you all very much for your kindness and your prayers, they are very much appreciated. As for the piece, it is a bit out there on volume and some things stand out a bit more than others, so I will have to visit this when I have some time to work on it, but maybe a few weeks. The chemo is going pretty well for me so far and very little bad effects, so I am counting my blessings. I certainly would never wish any of this on anyone, so count your blessings, as well.
There is a lot of great music and musicians in hear and I'm glad to be just a little part of the bigger picture. I have been playing my guitars a little bit, but not up to recording as of yet, but hopefully soon. Just had my 3rd treatment this morning and I wear a metered pump for two days, so they have me pumped up for 3 days constant (oh boy!!). Won't loose my hair, but it could thin out just a tad, maybe! So, I will try and keep you up to date, at least those who are interested.
 
Again, thank you for your support, love, patience, understanding and most of all your prayers.
Peace and Blessings to you all, John
