Picture take the day Douglas shot largest buck he ever got, just months before his death
Then
about 15 to 20 years later he had decided it was time for a change.
He had then become a custodian at Founders Hall. Founders hall was
and still is the most visited building in Hershey, PA. After a couple
of years he had received a leaders position. He was the work leader
for that building. Then soon after came the fight of his life. In
November of the year 1998 Douglas Carney my hero was told he had kidney
cancer. This cancer had been miss diagnosed due to the symptoms he
was having. He was told he had a short time to live. The doctors did
not give him anything but that. But they did tell him of a new treatment
for the type of cancer that he had. Douglas was all for it. He had
been admitted to Milton Hershey Medical Center to undergo interlukan2
treatment. Interluken2 is a man made treatment. But interluken is
a produced by the human body. These treatments made him look like
he had sat out on the beach for a week. Burnt really bad. He
would be in hospital for a week at a time for these treatments. Douglas
had finally had enough. I was there for a visit and he had told me
" I can't go through this no more." I said "Dad it
is your choice no matter what you decide I am behind you 100%."
So when the nurse came in to administer another treatment we told
her no more. Douglas had been an avid hunter and fisher and very active
with his family. After that final treatment he had only lived a few
months then left our precious planet to do the lords work. I
really do believe that he was called on by the lord to do his work
and look after my grandma. I miss them both dearly and will always
love them. And dad I know you see me doing this, and you see my tears.
I just want everyone to know that all you went through you are and
always will be my hero. |
