Stupid Cancer (Part 3)

It wasn't bad enough that this disease stole my best friend's husband from us when he was still in his early 30's or that it just stole another good friend's mother before she reached her 60th birthday.  It's not enough that it's threatening another very dear person from me not much past her 40th birthday.  Now it's got its vile claws in my Dad.  Granted, the man is in his 70's but as far as we're concerned, it's far too soon for him to go anywhere.  I'm not sure what his prognosis is, and I probably won't know much more until after his surgery in a couple of weeks, but I do know that I hate this stupid disease!

  1. I hate cancer too. My grandfather was 72 or 73 when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. He's been cancer free for almost five years now. Hold hope.

  2. My dad was diagnosed with Prostate cancer a couple years ago. He had his prostate removed and is still cancer free as well. Not sure what your dad is battling but know there is hope...

  3. My dad had prostate cancer a couple of years ago. He had it removed & they said they got it all. This time it's in his colon. Not sure if it's related to the prostate cancer or if it's a separate occurrence. Either way, getting cancer the second time sucks as much or more than getting it the first time.
