It was hard losing my dd when I was 42. Can’t imagine what it would have been like when I was 13.

Yes... and in a foreign country.

How terrible for the kid.

I was 13 when I lost mine. That was 38 years ago. I still miss him.

I was 10 when my dad died of cancer at age 53. I was 53 when I was diagnosed with cancer, that will rock your world.

My mom died of cancer when was was 60, I was 30. Since than I lost my eldest brother to cancer and the middle brother has survived cancer (so far). I'm pushing 70 and still keep an eye out for the "guy with the scythe". I stay current on all screening and diagnostic testing. Currently wondering if ObamaCare is going to be the undoing of my winning streak...
