Re: Fuck Cancer
That sucks. F the big C. My niece is battling stage 4 breast cancer and I lost my Mom at 17 to this dreaded disease. It seems to touch us all in some way

Cancer can eat a bag of dicks. We lost my 31 yo niece to stage 4 cancer about an hour ago. The nicest person you'll ever meat while shit bags like myself will go to a 100.

Just terrible, so young, her whole life ahead of her.
I've never found a good religious answer why bad things happen to good people.

I wish I had more than condolences Greg. I hope for strength in your family in the aftermath.

Two years is the milestone you should be hoping for. My brother didn't make it to two years. Hope your entire family is coping well and that they have you to kick around for a long time.

Re: Fuck Cancer
2 years is great! Very happy for you and your family.
But "cancer is nothing to be afraid of" or whatever that book is called is a crock of shit.
My son and daughter, both in their 30's, lost classmates within the last month 2 days apart. One was a twin too.

Re: Fuck Cancer
Thanks for the encouragement. "Luckily" mine is a pretty high survival rate. Stage 1 is 99% through 5 years. Mine was caught so early it was barely stage 1, but waiting for the results from the doctors is always nerve-wracking. Maybe one day UCLA football will be good. For now, I'll settle for the Dodgers being the evil empire.
Re: Fuck Cancer
So after a year of fighting with hospitals and doctors to get tests and waiting for appointments for months my wife was finally diagnosed with having a pleomorphic adenoma behind her ear. It's a usually benign tumor thankfully but it needs to be surgically removed because it can eventually turn into a basically 0% survival rate cancer. So thankfully we know she doesn't currently have cancer and isn't in immediate danger but she'll still have to have this pretty invasive surgery. Decent chance of facial numbness and paralysis afterwards since the tumor is right where a lot of facial nerves are. So now we have to wait almost 3 months for surgery since it takes forever to get anything done with doctors around here.
Also SD86's and I's dad currently has prostate cancer and is going to start radiation soon. He has a good prognosis but it's still a lot of stuff to deal with these days.

Re: Fuck Cancer
I looked up pleomorphic adenoma, it sounds like she has some good odds going for her. Hope she tolerates the surgery well. Let us know how it turns out.

Re: Fuck Cancer
My wife had her partial parotidectomy today to remove her tumor and part of her parotid gland. She's staying overnight at the hospital for observation but thankfully is ok. The tumor and subsequent biopsies of adjacent lymph nodes came back normal and benign. It will be a bit of a recovery since she has to have a facial drain and will have a gnarly scar behind her ear and along her jaw. Also has some facial numbness that should hopefully go away in a few days or a couple weeks. Not a fun process by any means but I'm just thankful this doesn't actually belong in this thread since it isn't actually cancer.

Re: Fuck Cancer
As hard as it is on your wife, rest assured we ourselves who have been through this know how hard it is on the spouse. In your devotion to your wife remember your own transitive burden of love. It's real and it takes a toll. Embrace your blessings and don't deny your torments. I wish you both peace.ASUHATER! wrote: ↑Tue Apr 16, 2024 8:22 pm My wife had her partial parotidectomy today to remove her tumor and part of her parotid gland.

Re: Fuck Cancer
I was actually thinking about buying tickets for Heart and Cheap Trick - it's the weekend of my 60th birthday here in Phoenix.
Bummer. I've never seen Heart - I have seen Cheap Trick twice.

Re: Fuck Cancer
Nothing but the best for Ann, I bought their very first album when it came out and wore it out.
Just strange that Ann and Nancy are touring since they really hate each other. Or at least they used to. Didn't speak for years, and when they did resume their tour they traveled separately.
But every band that hates each other does end up back together, outside of the Beatles.
