To: I cannot think of a name

Same with me. They ever told me I had PC, I would do exactly what this doc did. Go home and wait for the end. I don’t think there is anyone on this planet who has ever survived PC, you get diagnosed with that, they can prolong your life but at what cost? I look at someone like Patrick Swayze who I believe prolonged it by a year, yet near the end the guy weighed about 90 pounds and you can imagine the hell he went through. What amazes me is how many people get this thing, it’s as common as table salt it seems.

Wow, I checked and you’re right. 5 year survival rate is 4%. I knew it was bad, but didn’t realize it was quite THAT bad. I’ve known 2 people who died of it and yes, it seems more common than I would have thought.
