As much as I hate introductions... Hi!

Names Sean! Big Grin

I've been playing vidya since I was about 2 and haven't stopped since.
I'm ultimately a PC elitist, though I do have an xbox and ps3... which get almost no use.

I'm 16 years old, and the biggest thing about me: I'm a cancer survivor. Big Grin

February 27, 2013 I'll be 3 years in remission (No more chemotherapy!).

I had a bone cancer, Ewing's Sarcoma, which is a tumor that I had in my right leg, in my femur I believe. It's mostly common in boys ages 9-21 (I was 12 when I was diagnosed) and I had to suffer through a year and a half's worth of chemotherapy.

The 12th I'll officially be a month out of surgery. I had to have a prosthetic replaced, which acted as my knee and part of my femur and tibia.

I hope that explains a bit about me, and I'm VERY open about my Cancer if anyone has any questions feel free to ask! Smile

S'up shawtay - welcome to the forums !

Glad to have another PC gamer onboard - we can shun the console peasants Cool

Truth be told, I would like to play on my 360, but I'm currently half way around the world away from it

Damn, nice opener and welcome!
You have my respect good sir!

I do not think I could handle chemo at that age but I am happy to hear that others can and they kicked it's ass while doing so.

Even though I don't know you well, I'm happy you survived, it's always horrible to see someone die from something like Cancer, regardless of who they are.

Also welcome to the forum.

@Xannidel: Truth be told, I don't think I'd have made it if it wasn't for my family. My mom stayed with me practically 24/7 to make sure I was alright.

@Retrolink: Thank you. What you say is true, cancer itself is horrible... I've had to see many kids, infants even, hooked up to chemotherapy and you just die a little inside. :/
