Charlie C Report post Posted December 6, 2012 My father passed away from liver cancer last year and it was horrible way to go, luckily he had dementia so I don't think he understood what was happening so that made me feel somewhat better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A-S warrior Report post Posted December 7, 2012 Cancer is a living organisum like we are, only difference is, humans are intelligent life forms and have the capacity to think, and have a coinscience. cancer's purpose is to destroy everything in sight, and nothing more. it can't think, it cant talk, love or hate, and it doesn't pick favorates, no one is immune, or exempt. best thing you can do smiley is not think about the C word or what it does, more, take comfort in the memories you've shared with your great aunt. theres no point getting angry at something that can't feel anything in the way of emotions. The thing that matters is that your great aunt leaves this world with a smile. that's something you can do something about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
