I just spoke to him. He has outlasted the prognosis.

He is a very proud and private man and I respect his outlook. As part of that, I can’t say anything more. It is his choice as to what he wants everyone to know.

I miss you man.

You were there a couple of times when I went off the rails and I appreciated that so much. We had some great public discussions, and some private ones also. I think we have a serious connection from being from two sides of the same coin. You and I understood and respected each other, even though our lifestyles differed so very much at times...doesn't matter.

God bless you and yours my friend....and I miss you man.

Spoke to Murphy today, Tuesday Aug 7, and he was having a relatively good day. He has his ups and downs.

Thanks for the update OG. Hopefully he doesn't need reminding but let him know when you speak to him again, as I suspect that you already have, that he has many friends that are deeply concerned for him.

Everyone has his or her own feelings about coping with life's "ups and downs" and I respect Murphy's decision but I'm going to throw this out here for what it is worth: in my battle with cancer last year coming here and reading encouraging words from you people was a tremendous help to me.

Couldn't agree more F4.

I know I don't know Murphy, but I have a great deal of respect for the work he did as a LEO in the Detroit area. He was in there during some tough times.

I had some bad times with cancer in 2015. Murphy and some other fine blokes on this site were instrumental in pulling me through.

Just wanted to say many thanks to Murphy, I only just heard of his poor health and just wanted to say thank you to a gentleman.
Hope he can enjoy being with his family some.

Best Regards

Mark

I spoke with Murphy today. He is a tough old bird and is still hanging in there.
