bascapline, I have thoroughtly read both posts and appreciate you posting the info, I have been searching for the appropriate word, still haven't found the one I am looking for, interesting, informative. I certainly haven't read anthing about cancer of any form that is a pleasure - except when it comes to someone being cured. My husband had bladder cancer, three of the seven children in is family have now been diagnosed with cancer, he had to have his baldder removed and now has the urine bag and while there certainly isn't anything pleasant about that, it beats the alternative. There have been SEVERAL quibbles on this board about the right to post anything and everything and while I do read every post, MOST OF THE TIME, if I don't agree or don't think it is appropriate I just don't add to the frey. I DID NOT click the link you posted, while I read the C&P's, I don't think I can go to that forum and read all the things those people have gone thru. I have a LOT of days that I just lay on the couch and "hide behind the TV" as I call it, just dealing with what cancer has done to my life. There just isn't enough of DR's sharing ALL their information from one clinic to the next, one state to the next, it just makes me sad everytime I think about all the suffering that people go thru with this disease. Just the things I have seen in our local Cancer clinic have brought me to tears so many times. I didn't watch the Farrah Documentary, just like I didn't watch the movie based on a real Parkinson's patient, my sister has Parkinson's. There is just so much pain and suffering with Cancer and I am surprised that there is so much animosity over a simple discussion about such complete life changing disease.
