Aright im probably gonna get hated on for this but at the moment i dont really give a fuck. not a single fuck.

Today my uncle got taken of his chemo therapy because theres no long a point to keep him on it. Hes dying. He chain smoked a good portion of his life and now hes not the only one paying the consequences. Hes the only blood relative i have in america besides my dad mom and sister (my parents and him are from poland). When he was younger he rock climbed, traveled the world, skied, backpacked and now hes stuck in a fucking bed. Today i had my father come to me in tears telling me that hes getting taken off the chemo. I dont even know what to do with myself either. My uncle doesnt speak much english at all, doctors cant even tell him whats happening to him, and he has no way of communicating with them. And honestly im crying as i type this because i know hes laying in a hospital bed, suffering, and hes going to suffer up until the second he dies.

I know that deep down if you smoke, this probably wont stop you from lighting up again, but im hoping that maybe the thought of your loved ones crying for you, because they know how much youre suffering. and because they know their going to lose someone they love will impact you in some way.

fuck cancer.

Shit man ++vibes. Dealing with cancer sucks, but if you can get your hands on some hemp oil it could be worth a shot. There are a lot of cases of terminally ill cancer patients being saved by this stuff

Pretty much a case-in-point of why I will never smoke, and am absolutely dumbfounded when I see people smoking/starting to smoke.

My condolences. I had to go through a somewhat similar situation with my father, and it was the worst experience ever.

Word +vibes man. My dad died in 2007 from spinal cancer, 2 years later my grandma died from lung cancer, 1 year after that my aunt was diagnosed with bladder cancer, but she fought through it. To sum it up: Cancer is a motherfucking bitch.

dude i feel you, 3/4 grandparents have died due to cancer/smoking or caner related things and one of my best friends mom died last month of caner. My grandma was in hospice for 3 months, worst time of my life. BUT just spend as much time with him as possible. Trust me it won't hurt you so much after knowing he is in a better place, vibes man, hit me up if you need help with any shit

Cigarettes took my grandpa, then my grandma got re-married, then that grandpa died as well. Both had cancer. I never got to meet either of them. It sucks to know such a stupid thing took your family, but you'll learn from this just like me and my family did.

im really sorry man. im part polish too, and i got alot of pride in it with pudzianowski and everything. Spend lots of time with him man. But dont worry as much about his suffering they will be giving him very powerful opiates for the pain such as fentanyl and hydromorphone which will for sure make things more bearable.

Watch this video http://m.youtube.com/watch?gl=US&hl=en&client=mv-google&v=-KAC-vR0wmc It is really important to get on his doctor and make sure he is giving enough medication. In this day the us government is so overfunded and out of control, they are going after doctors right and left and acting as if they have the right to tell doctors how to do their job. Some doctors have no courage and are terrified of this, so they underprescribe their patients and let them suffer rather than treat them properly and run the risk. americas government needs to be turned off

dude, this isn't really the time or place to get up on your soapbox about this stuff. if you feel strongly, start another thread about it. it's really difficult losing a loved one, and polluting this thread with political rhetoric can come off as insensitive.

I lost my uncle to cancer a couple of years ago.

It's odd when I think about it, because I never was that close to him. It took a full year when he was diagnosed until he finally was on his death bed. I went into to see him, and all we talked about was my cross-country season. Right after I left the room, it was the hardest I've ever broken down. My point is that cancer strikes deep and strikes hard man.

Vibes to you man, to say the least.

back in the day, we'd have taken you out back and beaten you.



very unfortunate, and best wishes to your uncle and family. Cigarettes are something that absolutely baffle me. You literally have nothing to gain from them, yet every generation picks up smoking in huge numbers.
