See my last post. It’s not from RF, genius.

no one would transplant a patient with active cancer particularly not metastatic cancer

I repeat, RF does not cause cancer. Anyone who says different is deluded, or selling something, and is therefore a liar.

Is RF the same as electrical fields? Just asking. I know a family where the husband developed a brain tumor and died. His son developed a big ass tumor next to his testicles. And their dog has had three big tumors removed. They all sleep directly below solar panels.

Oh for Pete’s Sake!

This man is a year plus into a diagnosis that usually has an expectancy of less than a year.

Knock it off.

I had a variety of Chemo treatments for Stage III Stomach Cancer. Ten weeks of bi-weekly infusion with about the strongest mix possible of the F.L.O.T. four chemo cocktail they give for gastric type cancer, stomach removal and then because of strong damaging side effects from the FLOT, pill chemo for 12 weeks with a whole different set of side effects.

I had days I could not travel outside of my home. I had days I almost could not walk.

Killed the cancer in me however.

The largest cohort of lung cancer patients worldwide are Chinese women who cook with oils over hot fires.

Sorry Pal.

I'll say what I want to say here. I have real experience to share. My original prognosis was one to two years back in October 2018.

I think Rush mentioned that his lung cancer had metastasized to his kidneys or liver.

When that happens, it’s only a matter of time; and unfortunately, his time is running out. If he makes it another six months, I’d be surprised.

Well, at least we agree on that. Rush is very near the end of his life. No way would he be a candidate for any transplant. Wouldn’t extend his live more than a month even if survived the surgery.

He was a long time cigarette smoker; he quit & switched to cigars.
He often refers to “my formally nicotine stained fingers”.

My petite wife, literally “the girl next door”, had breast cancer at 28 and when it metastasized to her liver, her stomach swelled as if she was 9 months pregnant.

It was over after 7 months - from diagnosis to the end. The silver lining was only the last 2 months were painful.

Yep, once it hits the liver, remaining time is very short.

That is not surprising.

Cooking meats at elevated temperatures creates carcinogens called "heterocyclic amines." I would not be surprised to find those amines in smoke from hot oil in which meats have been cooked. Also, the combustion products of heated oil must contain some level of other carcinogens.

And all I can think of are the socialists who want to return us to the days when we cook with oil over smoky wood fires. Smoke from cooking in primitive fashion is a huge cause of lung disease in all third world countries.

Oh, dear. I was trying to disabuse the other poster of the idea that exposure to electrical equipment would have caused Rush's cancer. I'm sorry, I guess I was unclear on that.

I do NOT think that RF causes cancer.

And cancer cases seem to be growing.

The older you are, the more likely you are to develop cancer. People live longer now than ever before, and we have an overall aging population.

I was 58 when I was diagnosed. Not exactly a spring chicken.

I would like readers on this thread to remember TWO things.

Rush Limbaugh is well regarded so his ordeal brings out concern with discussion by people trying to understand our worldly experience.

Second, every diagnosis, perhaps even yours in the future, will be a new battle to play out. Cancers that are hopeless or terminal today, may not be so much that way when it strikes you or yours. Advances come every year and the statistical models are based upon mathematics for five year outcomes so those measured by those models were largely diagnosed five years ago.

Give thanks to God and fight it.

Notice the smear by the People.com writer in calling Rush a “controversial” and “incendiary” host. There is nothing controversial or incendiary about Limbaugh except in her brain-damaged, hate-filled mind. He tells it like he sees it. He doesn’t advocate violence, civil disobedience, tax resistance, etc.

He is a talk show host. He “talks” giving his observations, documentation and/or opinions. So does every other talk show host, left and right.

Are they “controversial” at CNN, MSNBC, The View (aka the P-You, Pew), etc? “People” magazine is a magazine that you read on the toilet when you have a bad case of diarrhea. Otherwise, it is not worth the time reading (assuming that People.com is a part of People Magazine. If not, they are still a POS).
