VPK78 - An UNBELIEVABLE ACT OF KINDNESS!!!!!! HG55 MO received! ;)

Friends you need to know what just happened and what an outstanding kind generous person VPK78 is=

Ive been on a roller coaster of emotions for the past week, my wonderful partner and nurse wife has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and transported to the Colorado Springs Cancer Unit since last Friday...
I've been going thru hell and so has my wife= 3 procedures within 1 week, CT SCANS, biopsy's, draining fluid (3liters) off her lungs, etc...

Today the mailman brought an unexpected package from member VPK78, and left it on our porch.

Ive been frantically arranging "power of attorney" and trying to "get things in order" as her doctor has suggested preparing to eventually "settle her estate".

I just opened up the package up from member VPK78 and literally tears ran down my face in shock and disbelief = he sent me my GRAIL KNIFE, totally unasked, unsolicited, and unexpectedly = The HG55 Military Overun, sterile, INFI, badass.

I previously owned a Busse HG55 MO and sold it when another great member inquired about it asking if I'd sell it to him, I did.
Well, ever since I've been on the prowl posting "want to buy" and searching endlessly for another in any condition...
I have a 1 Tree leather sheath from another knife that amazingly fits it like a glove!

all I can say is THANK YOU VPK78, actions speak louder than words my friend!
I will find a way to repay you in time!
Unbelievable!

Mike, I'm happy for you, but also sorry you're going through such a rough time! My best wishes go with you and your family!

But what your post highlights is the reason I'm part of this Busse family. The caring, altruistic nature of most here. It's quite unlike most other places.
Cheers to all who have helped another out during their time off need!

Thank you Sir, it does mean a lot to me.
We were blind sided by the news and are waiting for yet another pathology report from today's procedures and yet another biopsy.

Really sad news to hear, that is an amazing gesture though and truly what sets this forum apart from others.

Thoughts , prayers and smoke coming your way. We’re all here for you as much as we can be.

Wishing you and your wife all the best, hopefully she makes a full recovery.

That is an amazing gesture. In today’s world you hear less and less of these types of stories.

Your family will be in my prayers.

Thank you SO MUCH everyone!
initially we were told "2 weeks", 1 week has passed and still no answers as to a type of cancer.
You guys are all wonderful and I appreciate everything!

VPK78 did not even know about my wife's situation, he is a "true friend" and OUTSTANDING individual.

3 hour drive to see my wife tomorrow, 5 am departure, then back...
waiting on pathology reports to determine the type of cancer she has.

Unfortunately it has spread throughout her entire body, and we gotta know the type to then determine "a treatment plan".
if I'm slow or absent to responses, I'm on the road or unable.
You guys all rock!

*if you feel sick, go see a doctor, waiting does not help= learning the hard way here, and she is an OR nurse...

Mike it sounds like you are going through hell right now. I wish you and your wife everything of the best. She will be in my thoughts and prayers.

If love, kindness and consideration could cure cancer, the Busse forumites would keep us all safe.
