RE: Re: RE: Re: Cancer

My grandmother died of breast cancer.

I'm serious.

I never knew her well, though, so I'm not really affected by it.

Hey guys, I want to thank everyone who is telling him their personal bad experiences with cancer.

Really, thank you, you make a difference in what he is thinking now.

[flypie743]

Thanks for quoting that again, I think we all missed it.

Best wishes to your mom and your family.

Hey, some people just like to win in the "I have better plights" contest.

I'm sorry for what has happened, but the fact that it has been detected is very, very good. Your mother will be going through a lot soon and she'll need the love and support of her family to get through it. Be strong for her.

Edit: And while cervical cancer may be the easiest to treat, it's also among the hardest to detect.

Oh shit man. Best wishes to ya. On the offchance that I pray, I'll pray for you guys.

[Lightknight924]

My prayers are with you and your mother. That is said but yes doctors have come so far in treatment today that they will be able to treat it better than the past. Goodluck.

P.S. My grandfather on my fathers side died of a heart attack at the age of forty. His father died of a heart attack arounr the same age to. Does that mean my father, my brother, and I could die of a heart attack at our forties? I hope not. I want to live to the age of 94.

It certainly doesn't bode well. However, if you know your family has a history of heart disease you can begin taking steps to combat it. Your dad should probably talk to a doctor about what he should be doing, if he hasn't already.

[Lightknight924]

Yes, preparing for it by excercising and eating good will probaly reduce my risk of early age heart attack. Also, my father probaly has already had a doctor look at him without my family knowing.

Yes, I will prepare for the battle, The Battle Of For My Heart.

umm...I know its not my job, but thats juuuust a little off topic.

[ddrruler]

Thanks for your support guys.

[dAnceguy117]

I just came across the thought of the Deacon at a Mass reading off "for ddrruler's mother, for whom this Mass is intended". Gave me a good laugh.

But in all seriousness, good luck with everything. I'll be sure to pray.

[Torlock]

Praying for you all right now dude.

[Lightknight924]

Sorry didn't mean to bring it off topic.

[rockinwithkiss]

Don't get too worried about it. There's so much that the doctors can do for her. And I agree with stretchypanda that you should give her the love and support that she needs. I'll be praying for you.

RE: Re: RE: Re: Cancer

I feel for you. My mom has had Lupus for over 10 years now, not quite the same as Cancer but can be just as serious (which it has been).

Goodluck to you and your family.
