You are so sweet, thank you for the kind words. How does the saying go? There go I but for the grace of God. If my father had not been a conservative, put me through catholic schooling, raised me with a certain belief system, I could have totally ended up as leftist.
My dad suffered from various cancers, one of which was squamous cell carcinoma. They had to carve out part of his neck and he had a chunk of his scalp removed due to melanoma. He face was unaffected but other places were not. Being disfigured is one of my biggest fears, so seeing this poor man, I think his lower jaw was removed, should bring sorrow to all, at least those with a heart.

...cancer has decimated many on both sides of my family, my aunt having suffered the most, quite similar to what you describe with your father...just a hard thing to see...I hate cancer in all its forms with as much vitriol as I can muster; it has caused friends of mine to turn on God and damn Him for it, and I can only hope I don’t go down that road as well...
...it looks like Ebert has suffered much from his cancer; it distresses me to see it, and for some to focus in on the fact he’s not an ideological soulmate seems absurd considering his suffering...that he chose to shoot off his big mouth during his lifetime, well, it seems one could overlook that for now...he’s dying from cancer, and nobody in his shoes should be disrespected in the face of that...
