What an amazing man your brother was. I love this: “worked (worked, not just drew a paycheck) until one week before he died.”

With deepest sympathy, Mame

My uncle didn’t last a month. Even Steve Jobs, with basically unlimited funds, only made it a couple years.

Pancreatic cancer only has recognizable symptoms once it’s already too late.

About a month or so ago news about Buzzi’s cancer flare up came out.

IIRC the Pancreatic cancer continues to metasticize. A year ago the old bird had radiation treatment. Doctors found some of the cancer spread to a lobe of her lung. One of the 3 lobes of the left lung removed. Now she has 4 lobes.

A month or so ago she was getting symptoms that the cancer is progressing. The doctors put two stents in ducts (adenocarcinoma has growths around ducts inside pancreas to open the blockage). These two growths were outside the irradiated area.

Best doctors on the planet cheating the hangman so far. All this to keep the judicial buzzard alive long enough to maybe keep Turtle and Trump from excising RBG’s cancer of the court.

I don’t wish him ill health. I’m sorry to hear of his misfortune.

But I’ll be happy when he no longer has impact on my life.

Pancreatic doesn’t show up until one day you have the worst gut blockage of your life that nothing except a big greasy cheeseburger could cure but nothing moves. Not the gallbladder so that leaves just one other possibility.

No, I think you have him confused with Major Owens who was a dem congressman from New York.

Same with a woman I worked with although it took her a month before she passed. Pancreatic cancer is the absolute worst, nobody survives that.

True, but to me, a person who supports the murders of so many black babies, should lead the way and self abort himself so he can be parted out.

My friend just passed away after a mere 21 days of her diagnosis!

I’m not certain why but it appears anyone and everyone seems not to get “stage 3,” but moves right to stage 4 usually lasting less than 6 weeks!

Sorry to hear of your mother but I guess it’s a blessing that at that stage, without suffering so much, even though our time to be together is so brief.
