Last Friday I attended a funeral for a 51 year old friend who died in his home while watch his granddaughter. His wife found him cold after returning from grocery shopping. We are here on a loan that can be recalled at anytime.

Thanks for sharing.

I can relate to that man. Last month I found out my cancer has returned, it is now in my lungs and liver. I was told I had 3 to 6 month to live unless I took the chemo I may get 2 more years on the average. Well I am taking the chemo and hoping for a lot more than 2 years. I am dealing with it fine, I just look at it like a deck of cards I was dealt and I am going play it the best I can. I refuse to crawl into a cornner and cry about it, that does no good. Now my wife and family are having a harder time dealing with it, wich makes me feel bad, I just want them to go on with life and enjoy what you have while you have it.
Arthur,

Arthur, my prayers are with you.

The main reason I posted this is because yesterday would have been my mom's 71st birthday. Three weeks after her 50th she was diagnosed with kidney cancer and buried on April 29th. This has caused a depression that I haven't recovered from.

I just thought I could learn a lot from this gentleman and share it with everyone here.

I don't need any condolences, let's just do something nice for someone who really suffers.

Thanks to all for reading, Ilya
