Just last night, I received some sad news about Nick Pope. He published a brief message that said:
A while ago, following some digestive issues, I was diagnosed with esophageal cancer. Unfortunately, it's Stage 4 and has metastasized to my liver. While I know that it's kindness and hope that leads people to suggest healers and supposed miracle cures, and to say things like "fight it", and "you can beat it", I'm afraid my diagnosis and my situation leaves no doubt whatsoever: I can't beat it.

A friend of mine had it. Didn’t find put until it had spread to four or five organs. Died in a few months.
Sad news.
Same with two of my uncles. I do have a... sort of brother-in-law who has been living with some variant of this for almost three years (inexplicably), but it’s been a miserable three years.
An important opportunity to determine how you will spend your remaining time.
A friend with stage 4 liver cancer from colon cancer spread, is doing a moderate chemo every other week and is still working (office work) after two years.
Another former colleague did a clinical trial in NY and never came home from his first treatment, nor did he regain consciousness enough to put his affairs in order.
My sister left her car in the hospital parking lot, declined surgery, went straight to Hospice and held court for three weeks before she passed away.
So the choice is up to you.
Always keep your soul ready. When it is your time, it is your time.
Same happened to my aunt. Pancreatic cancer
Almost everyone dies of some form of cancer because cancer is simply failure of body cells to replicate properly and that happens to everyone.
Cancer is no longer: OMG I”M GONNA’ DIE !
Medicine has found ways to treat/cure/stop spread but our bodily cells won’t go on forever.
Sorry to hear this. I have listened to Nick Pope many times talking about UFOs/UAPs. I hope he does not suffer much.
My son was given a terminal diagnosis in 2019. He didn’t want to go so he has been doing experimental treatments, clinical trials and such. He hasn’t been able to live independently for years so he lives with me. I became a nurse/caregiver. He knows he can’t be cured and it will eventually get him but all the research will help others.
My wife has been dealing with two kinds of cancer for years. In remission but that can change quickly.
I don’t really know what kind of fight I would put up. The treatments are miserable and quality of life is diminished.
A friend of mine got cancer and declined all treatments. He lived the way he wanted for 10 years before it got him.
Agree...need to be ready to go.
Teach us to number our days, so we may seek wisdom(paraphrase by me)
Psalm 90:12.
Who is Nick Pope?
Just a health tip here: if one has a history of severe heartburn or acid reflux, they should see a gastroenterologist and ask for an upper endoscopy. I found out that I have Barrett’s Esophagus which is a precancerous condition. I get surveillance endoscopies every three years to check the cells for any signs of disorder, or God forbid, cancer.
This is the best way to keep ahead of cancer. It’s ordinarily covered by most insurance.
So far, so good.
If you haven’t yet, read Dr. Jonathan Aviv’s book, “The Acid Watcher Diet”. He talks a lot about Barrett’s. I followed the diet and had a complete cure of my GERD. AFter 28 days on the diet, I went back to my doc, told him I didn’t fill the prescriptions he gave me and did the diet instead. He was skeptical, but when he looked, all he said was, “Proud of ya! Whatever you’re doing, keep doing it. All the inflammation is gone.”
Vaxxed?
Nick Pope is a British guy who has written several books on UFOs.
He appears at a lot of UFO conferences.
He is a very pleasant and patient man—has amazing tolerance for even the dumbest newbie questions.
“Whatever you’re doing, keep doing it.”
I’ve also heard that comment. In my case it was regarding a fast, dramatic improvement in many lab scores due to a major dietary change + exercise. What amazes me is that it’s virtually never followed by “and what are you doing?” As a clinician WHY wouldn’t you want to know about something that might benefit your other patients? And not a shred of scientific curiosity.
The UFO field is notorious for weak reasoning and sloppiness with the facts. Nick Pope though is respected for being logical and fact oriented.
