CANCER SUCKS!
Happens in 3's! In the last month or so we have found out that:(in this order)
1. A buddy of Andy's (33 years old) has lung cancer. The guy has never smoked in his life. Symptoms started as a cough that he couldn't shake. After a series of tests over a few months, they take a scan of his chest and find he has a rare form of lung cancer. He has a wife and a young child.
2. A family friend (mid-60's) just found out that she had breast cancer, but it had spread pretty steadily. She's had a mastectomy and is now starting chemo and radiation. She's been married 40+ years and has 6 kids and a bunch of grandchildren.
3. My friend's mom (who also happens to be my daughter's bus driver and a very, very nice woman) went in complaining of shortness of breath about a week ago. They did chest scans and found she had lung cancer. It was aggressive, so they proceeded with chemo. She had an adverse reaction to the chemo and slipped into a coma. She passed away last night. Sharon was in her late-50's.
Cancer Sucks...it's all I can say!!
