Re: This Scares me...
God, this is crazy. I read all of the replies to this post, and reopened it every time, to read another reply..... so, I have opened it several times.
My uncle, my moms brother died in 1984. He had cancer, which started in his testicles. He never went to the doctor, thinking he had some sort of STD (he was..... well, he had a lot of girlfriends!!). By the time he got it checked out, it was too late, and it had spread all throughout his body. He was in his mid 20s. They tried many radical forms of chemo and radiation..... he wasn't going to live, so, he was sort of a 'guinea pig'.... so they could see how the medications would affect him.
It's crazy that I have opened this so many times, and not even thought of that.
So, first, yeah, life is crazy and you have to live it to the fullest.
And, second, ladies, this is so important, MAKE SURE YOUR MEN GET CHECKED OUT FOR THESE TYPES OF THINGS.
Cancer is so sick, it will take anyone, at any time. It doesn't discriminate.
