Without chemo you are looking at more like 4 months with lung cancer...with it spreading to brain, bones, organs etc. Every case is different. A neighbor went blind but my relative was able to walk and function pretty well until the very end. He did radiation of his brain but no chemo.

Ruth Bader Ginsberg seems to be with us still. Miracles happen. Pray for Rush.

Depends where the cancer went..not sure if he has small cell or not..usually these type of cancers spread to the liver. Heard now on Fox that he had experienced shortness of breath for a few days before going to the doc..My nephew’s best friend’s grandfather was diagnosed with early stage lung cancer last yr, no treatment necessary, came back after 3 months and is stage 4, he’s still alive, he takes chemo pills

My prayers go up to Rush and his family. A terribly painful disease and treatment. His contributions to the conservative movement are impossible to calculate.

This has shaken me. For 35ish years Rush has always been a part of my life. I watched the TV shows back in the day, I listened off and on over all those decades, sometimes religiously, others when I had time but always with appreciation and respect. He has my prayers and hopes. My father passed away from the same condition some five years ago after a two year struggle. So it's hard for me to hear of someone else I consider a sort of spiritual family member finding himself in the same situation. Prayers for Rush and his family and friends that he beats this somehow.

Prayers and best wishes for Rush. I sincerely wish for him to be able to go into remission with a minimum of suffering, and know that he will avail himself of every tool that medical science has to offer.

Prayers for him and family - I didn’t hear what he said, but there are some encouraging strides in lung cancer treatment these days.

As an adult, there are days you know will come.

Saying good-bye to President Reagan was tough. First he left the White House. Then we heard of his diagnosis. And then the end.

We stand here in a time when just ahead will come years when we no long have Rush, the Donald, the guiding lights that keep this nation on the right track.

I think we take men like these for granted. We live in decent times and forget or simply don’t realize how important they are to those times taking place and continuing.

There is one thing that is vitally important right now. When there is a successor to Trump, it has to be as close to the original as it can be.

If Don Jr. has the executive experience to support it, I want him to be the 2024 candidate. And having said that, I want him working as a apprentice with his dad. I already know he has the same ability to run the press ragged. He just needs to be coached how to deal with being president, and who better than his dad to do that coaching.

I know some folks like Ivanak, but I do not see her as a well versed Conservative. I’ll leave it at that.

Folks, a day is coming when Rush won’t be here any longer.

Over the years I haven’t listened every day. In recent months I have begun to listen more regularly. It wasn’t that I didn’t like him, it was just that with FR and other places, it almost became overload.

None the less, there is going to be a massive void on that day when the microphone sits there without the Doctor of Democracy emoting comments that we will find informative and reaffirming.

One of the hardest things about growing older is the amazing people you lose as time moves along.

There’s no one like Rush out there > IMO.

I wish him every possible good break in his fight.

I hope that God finds it favorable to retain him here for years to come.
