    Thank you all for your kind words, they're truly appreciated!

    My little guy's name is Miles.

    Sorry about your dog.

    I spent the day at the hospital in emergency with my dad. We were in the area with terminal patients since he's dying because of his cancer.

    Life gets put into perspective when one visits the emergency room.

    Wow. So sorry to hear that.
    My grandfather passed two weeks ago due to his cancer. Its such a horrible disease.

    Grace and peace to you and your family.

    I'm struggling with something similar, so my heart goes out to everyone dealing with a loss today. I lost a good friend and fellow disability supporter to cancer earlier this week. Nobody knew until the very end.

    The last few days I've been wrecked with having to do this colonoscopy and truthfully the hardest part was the the 3 liters of Colyte I had to ingest. The good news is no colon cancer detected. I am a cancer survivor (Prostate) and anytime I have to go in for a routine cancer check-up I hope for the best! Cancer is a crazy disease that sees no age, race, color or origin. Be a friend to some that has cancer or someone who has a loved one with cancer because in many cases the affects of cancer is exponential! To all my MFP's that are one way or another affected by this horrible disease let's keep fighting! Men just like women and mammograms please don't be too proud to get a prostate exam it can save your life like it did me.

    C-word fighter, C-word survivor!

    Wow that's awesome and I can understand your fears going into any appointments. My dad is party in the condition he's in right now because he was afraid he'd have to have an uncomfortable procedure like he had when he had his cancer surgery. So now he's suffering in other ways.
    It's an awful disease but don't fear it...fight it!

    I was just thinking about how sexist and intolerant it is that MFP has so many Help! My Boyfriend Is A Jerk And Is Mean To Me And He Says I'm Fat And Is So Controlling! threads.

    Aren't there any men at MFP that have similar horror stories about their women who would like to finally admit to it?


    That's why I have an ex

    So many things but I am thinking about my brother and hoping his lawyer-who's happen to be one of the best in Chicago, can win his case and bring him back home us.

    Great words! @Dont fear it, fight it!" That is so true. My dad is fighting two different cancers now and has beaten one already. Doctors tell him old age will get him before cancer!
