<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RickieB, post: 832205, member: 2486&quot;]Folks I appreciate the support, thank you. I suppose everyone has a right to say what they want to say. I am not looking for any one&#039;s sympathy, over the past 4-5 years here I feel I have made&nbsp; some nice online friends. I decided to post this Thread despite what may come from some who visit it.</p><p><br /></p><p>To be honest, I manned up 7 years ago knowing that this day was coming.</p><p>You see when my son was born I had such horrible symptoms that I had to have whats called a fundoplication to stop the acid from causing damage to the soft tissues. I was told that cancer was an outcome of this type of disease Barretts Esophagus and I have come to terms with it. I am not ready to give in by any means and my Doc is one of the best the field has to offer.</p><p><br /></p><p>My thoughts are completely about my son..the collection is completely form him as well, I am just the lucky guy to get to put it together for him.</p><p>So people will be people and I take no offense in what has been posted. I also thought long and hard before I did post this. I truly enjoy all of you guy&#039;s that work so hard to build your collections. There are some very nice collections here that many folks have and the vigor in which I have seen you all grasp Paper Money is just simply great! I like you had to start from scratch and truth be told, I am a nobody in Numismatics..just a collector, a person captivated by our Nations History of Security Instruments. Fortunate enough to have meet you all and some of the &quot;somebody&#039;s &quot; that are truly in Numismatics.</p><p><br /></p><p>I thank you all...I am not done yet, just out of the loop for a while.</p><p><br /></p><p>We all have people who do not care for us one way or another..I am not excluded from that at all. I think I will now sign off with this post..I hope to see you all perhaps in a few weeks down the road.</p><p><br /></p><p>God Bless..</p><p><br /></p><p>Regards,</p><p><br /></p><p>Rick[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
