As most senior members already know, my uncle J.B. has been suffering from cancer for quite some time now. I recently got an update on his condition which I'm ashamed to say left me in such a state of denial that I procrastinated by over a week in sharing it. The cancer has moved to his liver. This means he can no longer receive the chemo-therapy treatments which have been helping him hang onto life this long. The doctors give him only a couple months. I know I talk a big game when it comes to dealing with death, and despite the pain I do plan on living up to the things I've said. Once somebody's died, it's a finite thing, it's something you can come to terms with, and something like that I can handle...but watching them slowly die in front of you...that's a different flavor or torment, and I can't imagine it feeling any better from the receiving end. When he does finally pass, I won't be able to attend the funeral, as he lives several states away and we can't afford the gas to make the trip, but I will open a bottle in his honor. To any of my friends who've been following these events, I encourage the same. Assuming there is an afterlife, I want him to look down and see us living as he'd have wanted us to live. Getting depressed just wastes time better spent enjoying the fleeting moments of our own waning lives. To those who've tried to intervene, to forestall his death, to help him live longer, and you all know who you are, I thank you for your effort. Today we lost the fight, but it was still a fight no less, and I bear no hatred in failure against the inevitable. I won't get mad or resentful because at least we can say we tried. The one and only thing I ask is a homework assignment for everybody who reads this. research a drug called DCA. I tried, friends of mine tried, friends of his tried to get that drug to him, but we failed. even if we had gotten it to him, the use of DCA to treat cancer in the united states is a federal crime and we would have been sent to prison and his doses stopped had we succeeded in getting it to him. As I type this, my uncle is dying a slow and painful death. I don't blame any of you, but I do blame the greedy corporate assholes who refuse to legalize a medicine that can save lives on the pure basis that it's an "orphaned drug" so there's no profit in it. When he does pass, I plan on replacing the website banner with a darkened one for the day, to designate it as a period of mourning. |

Ultimate trolling solution If there's nothing left but a smoldering crater and fields of the dead, does it really matter who fired the first shot?Racism is a crutch of the ignorant mind desperately trying to rationalize that which it simply cannot understand. He who has the ability to act on an injustice, but who stands idly by, is just as guilty as he who holds the knife >>DeviantArt Page<< |̪̹̝͍̭ͅ|̩̪͙|͉͎|̙̬̟̜͉|̤̪͍̮̦̗͎|̩͕̠̦̱̻|̣̝̜̺̺̜̯|͕̬͓͓̳̳|̜͚͚̹͉͖̹͈͓|̭̦̯̜̩̞̝|̦͈̳͕͓̹͉͇͔̥̫̻̝̣ͅ|̤̟̼̳͍|̦͓̮̫̦|̯͇͈̺͔̪͍͖͈͚|͕͉̬̘͖̯̩|̮̙̘̣͈̰͍̗̼̙̞͙̫̰͕|͉̟̜͎͖͇͖͕ͅ|̻̫̹͔̜|̙̟̝̥̩̖͚͖͓͇̬̬̦ͅ|̝̤̮̠̣͖̗|̭̲̳̙͕̯͖ͅ|̩̱̥̫͈̪̫̠̝|̜̮̞͈̱|͚̯͈͖̼͓͍|̜̭͇̬̹̩|̖̦|̩͓̺͍ __FEEL THE ¯¯RAINBOW | |

Tanya, I wish your uncle my best, even though I did not know him personally, you speak very highly of him, and I know the pain of losing a loved one. As your Uncle walks the valley in the shadow of death, may he rest easy knowing that his niece Tanya will be around for many years to keep his memory strong, and one day may the young ones who follow your ancestral past keep his memory strong as well. |

Once a soldier always a soldier. He who fears death has everything to lose and nothing to gain, but he who fears not of death has nothing to lose and everyting to gain. Give up your soul and it will be replaced with Darkness... A man who won't die for something is not fit to live. Martin Luther King, Jr. Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed. Martin Luther King, Jr. We call that person who has lost his father, an orphan; and a widower that man who has lost his wife. But that man who has known the immense unhappiness of losing a friend, by what name do we call him? Here every language is silent and holds its peace with incompetence. | |

I am very sorry to hear that Tanya. My condolences to you and everyone intimately involved, and I hope that his final days are cheerful and as free of pain as possible. Sooner or later the grave beckons to us all in a slow whisper or a loud bang, and in either case it's irresistible. Stay strong. |
