EDIT: Bad news on page 4 from his buddy.
I haven't seen any recent posts about him on TD, and hadn't gotten any email updates in a few weeks:

Hello everyone!! This is *name redacted*, Ben's wife. Ben is doing great!! The latest MRI showed that the tumor has shrunk!! Praise God!! And it is localized to the pancreas right now. It has not spread anywhere else!! Praise God!! Just to clear up any rumors... the medicine itself is getting paid for through a grant. It is not experimental treatment. But all the other cost is coming out of our pocket. Doctor visits, meds, bloodwork, and chemo nurses that administer the treatment. So please know the need is still Great. I know God will Bless us and continue to take care of us. Thank you all for the prayers and money donations. We could not have made it this far without them. Please continue to share and pray for us as we literally are fighting for his life. Love all, ***

I goofed, but he used his actual name for his TD handle and her identity has been out there, so whatever.

You should redact her name at the end of the quote.

Yes they are not hiding from this fight, I just wanted to give you a hard time.

I clash with ben on worldview more than anyone on TD. However, we're all Tiger fans (well most of us) and we need as many people in Death Valley that bleed purple and gold as we can get. Our similarities should always trump our differences. Find the common good.
He seems like a good dude, even through our disagreements, and I'm glad to hear he's kicking cancer's arse.
Ben, keep up the good fight my man.

For some reason I thought it said Ben Carson, and I couldn’t understand how I didn’t hear about his condition.
Glad Ben the poster is doing well! God speed!

Thank you guys so much. You wouldn't believe the support we've received. We've got churches all over the place praying for us. I get letters and emails I answer all of these. It may take a few days. Friday's are chemo days and it takes me about 4 days to start feeling better from that. I have a little window where I feel decent. I'm sorry if I'm rambling. Anyway posting on tigerdroppings.com helps me concentrate and keeps me focused at a time where a wandering mind can cause the worst depression not to mention panic. Coming face to face with your mortality is a terrifying prospect. I have to say that I'm scared. Less than 1% survive 5 years with my prognosis. Less than 15% survive a year.
We're planning on making it through this and coming out the other side. What's got us so optimistic is it's localized so we think after chemo and radiation that we can do a whipple surgery and wash our hands of it. That's what we're hoping for.
Thank you for everything. I love you guys.

Thanks for bringing good news!
Have prayed for Ben and Crissie nightly for months and will continue to do so.
