Frankie Cee is a long time contributor.
He didn’t ask me to post this, in fact he doesn’t know I know… and now you know.
I have what apparantly is a large mass of Cancer in my Left Lung. I will have to travel to have a biopsy, possibly a PET Scan, and more.I don’t want to put a big burden on anyone, and I think that with the friends that I have, that this can be spread around. I have my own casket, and want to be buried in the Glendale Memorial Nature Preserve where my son requested to be bured. That expense is minimal, (compared to regular cemeteries), at but $1,800 to open and close a grave, and the gravesite is free of charge.
I don’t usually post GFM stuff but this man contributed so much and asked for nothing in return. Posted his first comment on 2008/09/23 at 3:27 pm

Best of luck Frankie. Been a while since we talked. It was fun exposing the Round Ranger. LOL
Safe travels
I hope this helps a little bit
Best of luck Frankie. Hopes and prayers
Our prayers are with you Franky Cee.
It ain’t over yet. Give it hell for bothering you and keep moving on.
Wishing you nothing but the best my friend…
Hang tuff, Frankie Cee. Heaven ain’t ready for you and Hell is afraid that you’ll take over. You got this.
Finished with that boat yet?
Seems to me (IIRC) you had a site “Frankie Cee Sees the Sea”.
I had misgivings about bring this up to you guys (it wasn’t my place to do so but I thought about reaching out to you all) as Frankee and I have been talking offline and this makes my heart glad (Not the cancer you DOLTS, but that you posted this.)
Frankie has been a LONG time contributor and lurker here and I know there was some recent dick swinging and I’m glad that’s not in the way of letting folks know what is going on with Frankie because I KNOW there are folks here that know and care for him and will really want to know his current status.
Good on you for doing this Dave.
I love you guys.
Chip, do you know if Frankie was in Vietnam? If so, that lung cancer will qualify him for 100% service-connected disability and full care from the VA. Any cancer of the airway is presumed to be associated with exposure to Agent Orange, so there’s no argument from the VA as to whether he’s covered.
In addition to covering all his medical care, he’ll get over 4K per month disability compensation.
I am (gonna did in real time) ask but I know he’s currently getting VA treatment but for the life of me, I know he’s very attached to the Ranger troops and school and families in Florida but I am at best, uncertain about his service experience.
I know he has a variety of services afforded him thru the VA but at what level, I don’t know.
I’m quite familar (now) since last Summer with the VA Clinical and C&P sides of the house for my own issues.

Prayers For You and Your Son, Frankie.
I’m Praying for you Frankie
Hang tough, dude.
All my best Frankie. Prayers for you and your family.
ROUNDS OUT!! Keep’n you and your son in our prayers Frankie.
Thanks for posting, Dave.
I hate that disease. It’s taken more than it’s share of my loved ones.
Praying it won’t take YOU, Frankie. God bless.
Agreed. Took my mom and uncle
My wife beat that bitch a couple of years back. Here’s hoping we don’t have a repeat performance.
Sorry to hear this, Frankie — here’s to hoping for a good prognosis following the biopsy & PET scan.
Frankie, you’d better get better. If you don’t, I’ll start sniffling and you know I’m always out of kleenex. 😥
Welcome back Ex.
Thanks, You Guys! Sometimes life just trips you up and you get lost.
You have been sorely missed, Mi’Lady…’specially on Thursdays. I’m sending m r ducks back your way.
Welcome back Ex, good to see you
That’s what long sleeves are for, who you run out of tissues, hankies and decorum 🙂
Good to see you Ex.
We’ve missed the Lioness of TAH
Prayers for you as well.
Welcome back, Ex, my fellow original Chicagoan. You have been sorely missed.
Speaking of sniffing…I was getting gosh darn worried.
Glad you stuck your lovely face back in these questionable climes.
I’m SO glad to see that you’re alive! Been missing you here.
No fun to reference Sister Mary, her ruler, and smacking some illiterate “reporter’s” grammar and spelling without you (and Miss Squawky Pants – can’t forget the cat)
Hey Ex! Good to see you here.
Sorry to hear about it. Hope things get going in the right direction.
Thank you all. It seems I am no longer a member here, Possibly I posted “FIRST” on the Feel Good Stories and upset an ADMIN.
LOL, admins are not allowed to have feelings here. Get well young man.
I don’t know Whut Da Hail could ever think you’d not be a member here.
The computer may not recognize you, but what does a stupid machine know.
You’ll always be part of this band of miscreants.
Hey fucker, you KNOW that’s not true. You’re ALWAYS family here. Shit, just cause some dick wavin’ went on doesn’t mean (for WHATEVER reason, meaningless tho) you don’t fucking BELONG HERE ALWAYS.
Crotchity fucker. 💘 😘
Hey Frankie! Praying that everything goes well for you.
Thanks for all the support you’ve given the Ranger School!!!!!!! … and “Big John” … you probably fed him a few times, I’ll wager.

Take 2 salt tablets and drive on Frankie! BTW, the system here doesn’t know me either. Purging us white name tape geezers?
PS Frankie: This is SJ, not Dingbat. I used the wrong name because it had purged me and I can’t remember stuff.
Fuck cancer.
Frankie Cee has exposed his share of extra pathetic mega fucking losers in his day.
Keep your chin up, Frankie.

Hang in there, Frankie. You got this.
