Sorry to hear this and I hope your Uncles ok. Cancer's some dumb stuff. I hate how anyone can just get it, even if they're healthy and do things right.

[riot_gurl]

thanx a lot. i havent been taking this too well, and to know that there is a lot of people out there who are there for you, is such a good feeling. i hate cancer. i wish there was a cure for it. but there isnt so i guess i'll just have to live with that fact and just try to keep a strong face on. thanx again.

sorry to hear that. Every year I participate in Relay for Life to raise money for cancer research. so one day hopefully we find a cure.

What kind is it?

[Biliard]

Cancer is pretty rough. My grandfather was just diagnosed with prostate cancer, so I understand what you are going through to a degree.

[riot_gurl]

it's urinary cancer

[4N6 science]

what?

[Biliard]

Like cancer in the urinary tract?

[riot_gurl]

pretty much. he hasnt been able to go to the bathroom in a month.

[Biliard]

I had never heard of this kind before.

[4N6 science]

uhh well how does he go to the bathroom then?

[Biliard]

I am glad you asked.

[riot_gurl]

he had surgery to go to the bathroom.

[riot_gurl]

i was weirded out by it, but i now know that he couldnt help it.

[4N6 science]

no offense, this kind of sounds made up...because I've never heard of urinary cancer?

[riot_gurl]

i know, that's what my friends said. but then we went and saw him in the hospital. the doctor said that this kind of cancer was rare. i got freaked out. this may sound fake, but i swear to God that this isnt fake.

[4N6 science]

oo ok.. gotcha..

[riot_gurl]

i just hate this. my life sux.

[Biliard]

Is there anything that they can do for it outside of the normal cancer treatments?

[JacquelineNancy]

Hearing someone in your family has cancer is possibly some of the worst news you can ever hear. My aunt was recently diagnosed with cancer, aswell as my friend's dad. I hope your uncle gets better.

And, would it not be called like, bladder cancer? Not urinary?

i dont know. i sure hope so.

my mom and the doctor called it urinary cancer. thanx. i hope he gets better too

the only person i know of in my family to have had cancer was my great-grandfather. but he was diagnosed when he was about 98 and lived to be 101 so it wasn't a big deal to anyone.
my next door neighbor was recently diagnosed with lung cancer, though and she's going through chemo. i think today was her last treatment since they caught it very early. i hope she's okay although the chemo usually leaves her feeling really sick for a few days.

oh, wow, i hope she's okay. i hope that no one else in my family gets cancer.

[fulltiltxb00gie]

yeah, i'm not even sure if she told her son about it yet.
i hope your uncle gets better and your family stays healthy. cancer's one thing you never expect to happen to you.

[riot_gurl]

thanx so much... i hope my family does stay healthy. and if my family does come down with another cancer victim, god, may there be a cure for it!

[riot_gurl]

if only there was a cure...

[johnx]

My grandmother, my aunt, and my cousin all have Cancer. I've gotten used to be worried at this point. Hope your uncle pulls through

[musicfiend]

My grandmother died last August from cancer. It is the worst disease to have.

[Biliard]

i dont know. i sure hope so.

Best of luck to your family.

[iAMhollyood315]

im actually going to a funeral this morning because my great aunt passed away from lung cancer. its hard and emotional time, but these are the facts of life that you have to deal with :-(

[4N6 science]

sorry to hear about that...

[absolute!punk]

man everyones getting cancer these days.
my best friend had cancer.. you'll get through it, i promise

[riot_gurl]

i know i will. it's just that the first few days are the hardest is seems like.

[FadedFocus]

i know i will. it's just that the first few days are the hardest is seems like.
stay strong. just think it will all be better in the end. best of luck.

[riot_gurl]

if only it were that simple...

[Biliard]

It is hard but you need to remain positive. I am sure it is pretty rough on you, but find something good and hold on to it. Think of a favorite memory of your uncle and when things get bad thing about that. You just need to find something happy to hold on to.

[riot_gurl]

thanx, i already have something in mind...
