Da companee always cums firstus, not dis tine said BLUE. BLUE walked frum six figures, told his boss dat his place wuz wid his Wife. MRS. BLUE had surgeree, chemo n den raydeeashuns 2 go thru n BLUE wanted 2 be dar, each step of da way.
Mario: So he just walked away from his job? But what about income and bills and things like that?
Jed: BLUE had monees n he also knowed n played da stok marcut 4 years. So he wuzn't worried money, B ing CEO, just his Wife.
Mario: How did he take the news and deal with giving up what he worked for, for many years.
Jed: Well BLUE acted all strong but whens he got alone he dun sumting I ain't seen him do since we went to The Wall. He wents in his offus, closed da door n he cried, he noed da med-O-cul odds. Odds were den his Wife wood B dead in a few years. Den he said "OKay, life just gave me a $hit sandwich with no bread, now what am I going to do?"
Mario: So what did he do?
Jed: Whut BLUE does bestus, care for sick peoples and fight.
Mario: Wow that must of been a bad time for BLUE.
Jed: Bad tine? I forgots 2 tell U sumting. At da same tine BLUE's Dad was in a battle wid lung cancer. His Dad kept asking BLUE why BLUE n MRS. BLUE didn't cum 2 C him. BLUE knew Dad loved MRS. BLUE n since Dad just had half a lung removed BLUE kept da bad news 2 himself. BLUE had his Dad fightin lung cancers and MRS. BLUE fightin breast cancer at da saim tine. Life is dat way U no, bad tines always all comes ats once it seems.
Mario: My God, that is horrible, who did he talk to about what he was dealing with?
Jed: Not 2 peoples bout it at firstus, he kept it all 2 himself. He talked a lot to his ol' Yellow Dog. Da dog nevar talked back but seemed 2 no whut wuz goin on an da dog knowed just when 2 giv BLUE a doggie hug n slime him wid that wet nose. N-nee-way once da chemo started MRS. BLUE wuz really sick n BLUE took care of her. Tried to giv her support, like when all her hair fell out, said he wood save his head. MRS. BLUE didn't want him 2. So he told her everE day how beau-D-ful she wuz, har or no har.
Mario: So is that when BLUE went online and started Techride? While he was sitting at home caring for his Wife?
Jed: No. Affer da surgery, chemo and raydeeashuns was dun wid his Wife, BLUE jumped on a plane and wents 2 Florida to care 4 his Dad. BLUE's Dad was dyin from his cancer. BLUE cared 4 his Dad for 3 weeks, 24 hours a day. His Dad was a proud man and had said he wanted 2 die at home, not in sum hospital. BLUE promised he whood pass at home. BLUE mets wid the Hospice people and Bcause of BLUE's med-O-cul background, BLUE told them dar was no need 4 a nurse. Da Hospice people were gra8 peoples. Day brought BLUE da morphines n udder drugs n supplies he needed 2 keep his Dad out of pain. BLUE n his brother laytar gave da Hospice a big bag of monees so day can help udder peoples 2.
Mario: So what happened then?

Mario: War? How did he think he was going to fight this war?
Jed: By usin da innernet. BLUE said he whood make the innernet his gun or knife but he was goin 2 use da innernet 2 do his bestus 2 fight and kill cancer. BLUE is 1 guy U don't want to hav tryin 2 kill U. Uncle Sam trained him special. He is da nicest guy in da world till U piss him off.
