Cancer Sucks
 

Cancer Sucks,

I have had 2 people in my family over the last 2 years die of Cancer. shit sucks.

:mad: :mad: :mad:

Yes it does, the worst sickness in human history.

Sorry to hear about your losses.
My mother died from a stroke caused by Cancer when I was 11.
Cancer does indeed suck big time.

My Mom's cousin was diagnosed this week.

Fuckin' sucks.

There's a lot of new stuff happening in the medical research field that looks promising.

I'd say we have another decade to go before they really can nail cancer cells using nanotechnology type treatments.

i've had like 4 people in my family die of cancer.. i hate it :(

that's bad

Very scary.

Its fucking criminal that this country and others still allow people to consume tobacco products. One of the primary leading causes of cancer.

500,000 people die from smoking every year just in the USA alone. That's 10,000 people a week.

What a total sin that is.

But so many merchants, growers, and state and federal governments make a fortune off of it, they don't care if people drop while they make tons of money.

Utterly discraceful . . . . :mad:

Agreed. Just lost my uncle 2 years ago to it. He fought it for like 4 or 5 years. Hodgkins..

i'm sorry :(

The scary thing with Lung Cancer (The #1 killer) is that once you are diagnosed you have less than a 40% chance of living to 5 years after diagnosis. How do you cope with something like that? Knowing your days are that numbered.

That will be really hard to handle.

Some Cancers, if detected early enough, can be wiped out but Lung Cancer - once you get it, you're dead. That's a hard pill to swallow.

My mother had Breast Cancer. She lived about 4 years after diagnosis. At one point, the cancerous region was the size of a baseball. After a year after that it was down to the size of a pea. God rest her soul, she told us the Cancer was in recess when in fact it was growing again after that and the doctor told her there was nothing else they could do. She had a stroke a few weeks later.

Unfortunatly at the time I was young and didn't quite grasp the concept of death - like, really grasp it and realize that it could and would happen to my mother.

Wow... happy day. :(

awww man sorry to hear about that Bangman. My entire family side of my moms, all the women have died of cancer. My mom just beat it a couple years ago. I always live with this fear. :(

everyone has cancer, just a matter of how much you have and how often it wants to spread and grow until it takes your life...shit sucks.

i just found out on the 8th that my mother has malignent melanoma on both lungs and her liver. it isn't curable but she is in chemo to shrink it.

i always thought other people and their families got cancer. stupid way to think, i know but nonetheless.

i didn't talk to my mother for 13 years prior to learning about this. i can say it has been a smack back to reality.

cancer- what can you do but take it one day at a time right?

mom had the same thing - liver cancer - even though she had maybe one drink a year - died almost two years ago - man time flies -

just make sure to spend as much time as you can with her - put the past aside and enjoy it while you can.

My mom found a pea sized ball within her right breast the other day ... tomorrow she is off to the hospital for tests...

Lets hope all is fine ....

My father in-law died last yr from lung cancer I saw him die

it was fucking scary shit seeing him surfer like that in the hospital.....



Don;t smoke
Try to eat healthy
Exercise your ass!

:Oh crap

:(
really scary illness...

lost my father from cancer 8 years ago at the age of 52
and my aunt (his sister) 2 years ago at the age of 63
also my grandfather died from cancer, but i never met him

it's something we have to live with.

sorry to hear that

Whats scary is you think you have the right to decide what people can and can't do to themselves..

damn, what a depressing thread :(

I know, I really don't want to go into details, but I've seen some pass away and one of them a teenager :(

yes, its very tough for those that have it and even worse for the family and friends..

yes indeed very sad, cancer truly sucks for sure, can't believe they haven't found a cure for it yet, I bet they do just don't let the public know about it, only people like the Queen or Bill Gates have access to the cure prolly!

oh.... too bad....

My condolence to you and your family, man.

im sorry to hear that man

So sorry to hear that, hopefully there will be a breakthrough in modern science.

I've never used a tobacco product in my life, but I strongly disagree with you.

I have every right to spend my hard earned money on products to kill myself. The government is not here to babysit me.

Yes, it sucks. My mother, 2 aunts, and an uncle died from cancer. I am optimistic though. Maybe within 30 years, we'll see most of the common types of cancer cured.

sorry for your losses, cancer does suck :(
