I have had cancer. I know that it’s a horrible disease. I also lost my husband and mother to cancer. No one has to tell me how awful the disease is.

I’m sorry John McCain has cancer and truly hope he isn’t suffering. Having worked several years in hospice, I’m thankful that there is palliative care for the end of life. (BTW, there was no such thing as hospice when my young husband suffered so horribly and for so long.) If McCain is at the point that he’s hospice appropriate, I’m sure he’s already been placed on service. That will make things easier for him and the family.

The only comment I have regarding today’s news is that I feel emotionless. I pray that he’s right with God. I’m sorry for his family and friends who love him. Other than that, it’s just another news story for me.

Sorry if I offended you. Not intentional.

My opinion was meant for those who felt the need to denigrate the man when he is in the last stage of life. And, being taken by a horrible disease.

You and I have been afflicted with cancer and suffered the loss of close relatives too. My point to the snarky posters was let McCain go with dignity and peace.
