Follow up to Lias bye bye howii

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

First of all many thanks to those of you who offered plausible solutions to a final exit scenario. I have been in contact with a specific poster and no further suggestions are needed.

I cannot speak with certitude about even the approximate time/date of my passing. As a husband who receives Social Security benefits I find myself duty bound to provide for my family; I.will hold out as long as I can.

For those of you with kind words for my posts, please accept my gratitude to be shared equally with those who who don't like them but said nothing. So, I ain't gone yet and neither are my remaining posts. I've had a great life-there is no reason for tears.

If you can hold out till your kids have completed Year 12, that would be great.

Your decision has been made, but I for one would try that hash oil. As GM said, you've got nothing to lose.

I notice that I didn't make your list of top Mods, but, nonetheless, you were always on my imaginary list of 'posters I'd most like to meet'. Maybe we still can.

Your kids and their mom are eligible for usa ss.
Get the formalities done and they will have some security.

Registration of the kids as citizens born abroad has benefits if you are the biological father.

No they are not. To qualify they need to be live in the states for a minimum of 5years and unless you have income other than SS they will not let you take them to the states. They do all they can to keep them from collecting SS otherwise that would be a great way to do it just keep having kids. They can be out of wed lock too, and collect fathers SS, so it would be great for us old geezers we'd have lot of "wives" and kids

I quite frankly don't know. The first symptom was bloody urine which was diagnosed as a nonmalignant prostate, which indeed was accurate. Ó Further scans revealed kidney and gall bladder stones, enough for a gravel quarry and the 3rd scan revealed the malignant urinary bladder tumor. The usual time frame is 5 months. Since I've no idea when growth began I can't know how much is either elapsed or left.
