[QUOTE=stupid07er]Hodgkin's Lymphoma[/QUOTE] Holy crap, that's what Seumas McNally had :( Glad to see you're pulling through!
My father died from cancer almost 20 years ago, I'm so glad your family has been spared that pain. I think you're one of the most positive and upbeat people I've ever met on the internet. Also you're very funny - and always in a charming way, never being an asshole like some. I admire your strength of character, and suspect it has been reinforced by a happy supportive family being there for you. Also, I hope your recovery is full and permanent.
Wow. I remember seeing the picture of you (where you can see the camera) in a post pics of you thread. It's amazing what you've been through. I hope you get the all clear.
[QUOTE=iKyle]If i'm ever in the USA stupid07er I want to meet you before anything! :D[/QUOTE] This.
Congratulations on pulling through, my mom has neuropathy, and from what I can tell, it sucks :( She's getting better too! :D [b]EDIT:[/b] Dammit, now I'm reading the death stories, and I'm sad...
Shit man that's a truly moving read. Hope it all works out for you, I wouldn't be able to stay that calm in your situation.
oh god that thing below your neck for chemo reminded me of my dad You are a hero my friend, I respect you in every way possible My dad died of pancreatic Cancer
[QUOTE=joe588]Shit man that's a truly moving read.[/QUOTE] Definetely, you're a really strong person. The respect of Facepunch is very much due.
Cancer runs in my family yet I smoke... after hearing all this... makes me want to quit.
Ah, I hate cancer, it took my 13 year old dog. :( I grew up with him and he died from cancer, he went blind first and well we put him down.
Great to hear a story like this. Hope you make a good recovery!
Wow, that must have sucked. Good thing you are going to be alright now :) [b]Edit:[/b] [QUOTE=Bredirish]Ah, I hate cancer, it took my 13 year old dog. :( I grew up with him and he died from cancer, he went blind first and well we put him down.[/QUOTE] Oh my god, that is so sad. I feel really bad for that poor dog. Unfortunate. :(
i know to many people who have had cancer at least you got better. :(
Thanks again to everyone for your replies and encouraging words!
Ugh that must of sucked but at least your cancer problem is sorted with the side effects of your hands and feet as i think of it i would not/could not fap and i would not be able to play games have to wait for painful feet and stupid07er is it like the pins and needles from lack of blood? anyways i hope i do not go through your hell.
You know...you never really hear the whole story when someone has cancer (at least I never have). My grandmother had lung cancer and many heart problems near the end of her life from complications from smoking, and I never once heard her complain. She went from nearly dieing, barely moving, to almost a full recovery. Like you said, she was weak in her legs and would often lean on me when walking into a store like Wal-Mart or something, but I never really thought about the pain she went through or anything like that. She was always positive and never mentioned it, so it's nice to get the details of something like this. Sadly, she passed away this summer before I graduated high school, but I received a card telling me congratulations and her Waffle House mug. She would always ride with me to eat Waffle House/I-Hop at 10pm and later, including on my 18th birthday. Glad to hear you're doing well though, thanks for telling about your experience.
You are a really brave person to be able to stay as positive as you have
I am glad you are doing good! I admire people who have to go through that shit, it is hard, but I don't know personally. I don't know anyone real well with cancer. I know a kid who had tumor in his knee, but it was not as bad as it could have been. He was always small to begin with, and his knee is crippled, but ohter than that he is in good spirits. I hope you keep working dude!
OH GOD I FEEL SO SICK RIGHT NOW! Everytime I read stuff like this, I'm afraid I could get the same. It is like... You see those 2 policemen walk by, and you know that they will come and terror you with some crap, even tho you did nothing. Or when you are in class, somebody does something, and you know exactly that they'll think it is you. I hope all the best for you, this sounds so disgustingly sad and terrifying, I hate doctors and hospitals, since I spent half of my childhood in hospitals and at millions of different doctors. I have a doctor phobia or something, I really hate it and I wanna go like :bees: and run like the motherfucking wind. Get well soon, please.
Here, have a freindly and a :love:
The Seven rater :v: people are jerks.
dieing sucks.
Updated the OP... got some test results back today and the news wasn't good :(
Oh fuck! :( I'm so sorry man... Get well.. :love: [b]Edit:[/b] Man I don't know what to say.. I mean, it's worse enough that you've already been through this. :(
[QUOTE=stupid07er]Updated the OP... got some test results back today and the news wasn't good :([/QUOTE] Oh, cancer is awful. I'm not sure if I can say anything you haven't already heard but my mum has breast cancer a few years back. I think some of the best medication is lots of hugs :3: *Hugs* By the by, how old are you? It's hard to tell by the photos.
[QUOTE=stupid07er]Updated the OP... got some test results back today and the news wasn't good :([/QUOTE] Today? What happened?! [b]Edit:[/b] Holy shit, I'm so sorry! Don't worry! :( [b]Edit:[/b] In your oesophagus too, fucking hell. I hope it doesn't get too big! I knew somebody who had one in her throat, it was the most heartbreaking thing I've ever seen. :( RIP Grandma!:(:(:( You'll be fine man! Hang in!
Oh christ, that has got to be terrible having the cancer resurface. I hope the treatment goes well.
what makes me worried is that if anyone you know on the interenet dies, you would never know. He would simply not come online anymore, and that makes me sad a little bit :/
Damn, they've come a long way to treating cancer huh? Back in the 90's if you were diagnosed, the only treatment I heard of was amputation or operation on removal the cancerous tumors. But seeing as how you were put on drugs, went through rad therapy and now you will perform another operation. Hell, it makes me feel safer that the cancer patients have a sizable chance of beating the tumor, thanks to progressions in technology. Good luck man.
Bad news, i feel sad :( That is what i would always fear if i got cancer. The return of it. For me, it always seems cancer means you are living a life where you don't know if it will hit or not. I really hope they find a cure. Something that cures all of the cancers, kill that one mutation that makes it all happen. How many people would not be saved from that? I just wonder why it is so hard to do...
