I hate cancer!!! Who's with me??
I was diagnosed 22 years ago with colon cancer and while mine spread to other organs, I am still here living with it. Unfortunately, there is no cure for the. Today they have advanced on different cancer drugs so you have an excellent prognosis.
Sorry to hear
He's in our prayers

I hope he gets the best treatment. My grandfather died of colorectal cancer. James is still young. I grew up with Dawson’s Creek! I loved Varsity Blues too.
