Cancer Sucks,

[Lewis & Herschel]

Sad losing Tee, we lost our family pet named Herschel last week to Lymphoma. Bet Tee is bugging the heck out of Erk as we speak.

I wish we spent as much time being outraged at cancer as we do celebrities or politicians.

Amen, it's taken some very dear loved ones from my life.

And so much of it is preventable .... We've come a long way as a country , and as a people, and still have a long way to go

I just lost my dad a week ago to lung cancer .... He stopped smoking 20 years ago but the prior 30 years of smoking and drinking , I guess, caught up to him..... He was the first to say he shoulda never smoked the first cigarette. With what we know as a people, it is beyond my imagination why anybody would ever smoke , or drink to excess , knowing what lies ahead

My dad had the same type of experience. His lung cancer came back 10 years after his last cigarette. Like you said, the prior 30 years of smoking and drinking caught up to him. The second round only took 4 years to kill him.
