Well shit. 

Uncle's pancreatic cancer..I mentioned in Nov..took its course.  He rec'd news of 3 months to live <4 weeks ago.  Tonight, it's doubtful he'll make it through the week.  At least he's at home with all of the family. 

Dad's surgery for prostate cancer happened 2 weeks ago. The results, 1 week later, showed the cancer is worse than they thought. 

Well shit again.



Sorry to hear of your family's bouts with the cancer

I have a friend who had a lousy prostate removed and the aftermath was not pretty, metastasis

that was 15 years ago and he is still going... but is just now running out of options

these days with the treatments available they can buy you years of good quality co-existence with the illness even if they can't get you into remission

right now I don't know what my prospects are for remission

don't much care either if they can buy me 10 or 15 years...

I really don't think I want to live that far into my 70's anyway

good luck!

Got the news a couple hours ago.  Three months to live turned out to be a little over one.

Sorry Adam.

Thanks all.

After hearing the details last night, that one month was about two weeks too long.  This is definitely for the best.
