even if there`s no god......i`d like to put this out there....

most of us have been through this cancer issue with relatives at one time or another.....and it`s very hard...physically and psychologically....

i wish them all the best....and hope she goes into a long and successful remission...

Been a on going process with my wife for 10 years.It get's to be a drag at times. But she is tough. And I bet Mrs Edwards is to. Our woman see to have a inner strength. I think it has to do with that mother hood thing. Us guys seem to miss that and melt easy.

very thoughtful post garden. I've witnessed cancer destroy my dad over the past 5 years. Turning a powerful man into a shell of himself. Cancer sucks plain and simple.

Far too prevalent in our society, touches virtually everyone seems like. Lost a father to lung cancer (self-inflicted, yes, but), sister has a rare form of free floating tumors that attach to organs - so far has been treatable, thank God, and wife had a cancerous melanoma removed last year with other pre-cancerous moles ever since. Closely monitored, and has been good since the main one.

Cancer sucks. Prayers to the Edwards family. She seems like a neat lady, from what I have seen.

bro,we joust,argue and disagree on a regular basis....even get a little nasty on occasion...

but you know you`re my buddy....

my mom had both breasts and part of her colon removed....they gave her a year at the time of the last occurence....and the last occurence was 10 years ago...and now alzheimer`s may be becoming an issue.....

they say chemo affects the brain`s functioning...but,after 10 years?...who knows....:shrug:

we`ve been through hell...but,we`ve been blessed,or fortunate...or anyway you want to phrase it...

i`ll say a prayer...or some good thoughts for your dad..

and for chad and i.o`s families....

all the best,guys...
