Well....I went to my doctors appointment today and he found a tumor on the left side of my neck. :'( Hopefully when I get it biopsied next week it will turn out to be benign and not cancerous.So now I am majorly in a deep depression till I find out what is what.So I don't feel like working on any kind of project at this time.
Thank You very much TXOPIE...... I was able to get a couple of pieces of the skeleton at least,before I got this terrible news. A couple more pieces done and the skeleton prototype will be done finally.It has been trial and error over different materials for this build,but after a year it is finally coming all together.I am hoping to start back on this project as soon as I get this whole medical problem dealt with.
I got my neck tumor biopsied today and it hurts like hell now. :'( I get my results this Thursday from the Oncologist to see if it is cancerous or not.It seems to be getting bigger. It is about the size of a golfball now.I came home from the Doctors and took a Oxycodone and went to sleep.Thusday can't get here fast enough.I will try to get back to this project ASAP.But I might have to take a break if it comes up positive and get surgery on my neck or some radiation or Chemo again.
Very sorry to hear you are not feeling well. Your a good man charlie brown hang in there. Thank you for all your hard work. Will pray for your future health and wellness.
Well I found out this afternoon that my biopsy from the tumor came back positive for cancer. I go to see a specialist tomorrow about seeing what route I need to go as in Chemo/Radiation or surgery to remove the cancerous tumor from my neck.Hopefully they can just cut it out and that's it.But then again whatever they do to stop it from growing is fine to me.Thank You for your prayers and support ......Todd Mullenaux.
I have to go get my PET scan this Tuesday to see if it is just my neck or if it is spreading throughout the rest of my body.Hopefully they can tell me what stage I am in.I hope it was caught in time to get treatment like radiation / chemotherapy to shrink the cancerous tumor.If not I might have to go in for surgery as soon as the end of next week to remove the tumor.
Got my surgery done this morning to put a port in my chest.I will be starting my radiation and chemotherapy at the beginning of the week. So hopefully when I get done with all my radiation and chemo I can get back to this project again.
I had to make a Go Fund Me page with my wife because the medical bills with all the specialist are killing me. Hopefully I can start this project back up after all the radiation and chemo treatments are done.
My cancer has gone to stage 4 already so I think this project is never ever gonna happen now.Plus if any donations happen they will be for my final expenses to keep my wife from going broke when I pass away.

It's been awhile since I posted on this thread.....In about another month or two my Radiation and Chemotherapy sessions should be done and over with by the end of the year.As soon as I am cleared from my doctors at the Cancer center I will be back on this project ASAP.
Sorry for this taking soo long....But I never thought Cancer was going to be kicking my @ss this year.
Thank You again for being so patient for this item that is not available from any known vendor.

Todd Mullenaux...
your health is more important than a car part,,, take care of yourself, look forward to many updates...
Here is my newly updated picture from my last Chemotherapy session in the hospital. I will definitely be finishing this project ASAP after I am done with all the chemo for my cancer.
Sad to say that my wife received a message from Todd's wife yesterday. His cancer has spread to several areas of his body including bone, liver and brain and the doctors say he only has 2 or 3 weeks to live. He came home from the hospital last night under the care of Hospice.
His wife would like for his car friends to come over and visit while he's still somewhat aware of what's going on. So if you're local and not a member at CFF, I am planning on a gathering on Tuesday night between 6 and 9 PM. If that doesn't work for anybody or if you are able to get together Sunday night please send me a PM and let me know. I will share finalized plans (for Sunday, Monday or Tuesday) this evening.
If anyone would like to see Todd but is unable to join us, I'll send you his wife's contact information so you can coordinate with her. They live in Southeast Orlando in the Goldenrod / Pershing area.
If anyone would like to send a relayed message, just PM me and I'll get it to him. I doubt he's still reading the forums but who knows...
Also, please don't muddy up this thread by replying to my post here. Either send me a PM, phone call or text.
Thanks guys. Let's try to get together as many members as we can to say farewell to our Fiero brethren Todd Mullinax.

very sad news. Broke bread a many times together and shared a lot of laughs. Gonna miss hanging out at the club meetings and taking the wives to the comedy club. At least his suffering is over. God bless his wife and family.

Hello everyone... My name is Dawn... I was Todd's wife. Due to Todd's death and bills are crazy, I need to sell his Fiero. I know he wouldn't want me to just sell it to anyone unless I couldn't sell it to a Fiero Guy... so here I now have to do something that is soooo extremely hard for me and that is sell his car. I am asking 1500.00 for it... Please spread the word. Thank you everyone...
Dawn, I am so sorry for your loss..... I can not imagine what all you are going through right now. I do hope someone steps up and buys the car soon. We have a large Fiero gathering taking place at the end of this month in Daytona. I will gladly put of a flyer about the car if it is not sold by then. Do you have any pictures you could send me? I will gladly put a post here in the Mall on this forum with pictures and your contact information. You can call me at 56I- 23 Six-7O24. - John
