Lost my sister at 44, and her son, my nephew at 21 to different forms of cancer.

I assume it will get me too.

Cancer is evil. My mother had it (beat it) and my father had it (he beat it too).

Know a few people that have smoked for as long as they can remember and no cancer and yet another catches wind of smoke and they have cancer.

Sucks man.

Post by: Scoobum on May 04 2011, 09:24:58 PM: Sorry to hear Rob. It killed both my mother and father. It'll likely get me too.
Title: Re: cancer..
Post by: DCEPTCN on May 06 2011, 06:06:44 PM: Sorry to hear this. I lost my mother to cancer when I was 10. The only good news is that you can't be 100% convinced about the tenebrosity of a cancer diagnose, people do beat it sometimes.
Title: Re: cancer..
Post by: Pyro6 on May 06 2011, 06:27:00 PM: Rob sorry to hear of your Aunt's cancer. Hope she responds to treatments. Sylvan, what's tenebrosity? Just have to ask.
Title: Re: cancer..
Post by: Pyro6 on May 06 2011, 06:32:35 PM: Googles a good thing. Got it Sylvan. Still wish Rob the best of luck.

Post by: firebird_1252 on May 06 2011, 10:51:41 PM: ok so the update:

the cancer is in small tumors. so far they found 1 on the brain and one on the lung. they did something today where they went in though the nose to do something with the lung. i'm not sure what. they say radiation should shrink the tumors.

the very good news. as of now, the cancer has not gone to the lymph nodes or the liver.

i'm hoping this is a wake up call for her and my uncle to stop smoking.

thanks for the support everyone!
