Lake of Shadows Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I'm glad she's recovering and doing well. That's quite an ordeal she had to go through, and for a type of cancer folks don't generally talk about much... kudos to her for speaking up about it. Best wishes for her and her family. (FWIW, I'm assuming the article is more or less factually correct... they DID say Farrah Fawcett died from liver cancer, which isn't true. She had anal cancer).

Knebby Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Did she really? Wow I never read that anywhere in all the stuff I read. Not wholesome enough maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electrophile Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I wouldn't say not wholesome enough, maybe that it just sounds even more grotesque and depressing than cancer already is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knebby Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I wouldn't say not wholesome enough, maybe that it just sounds even more grotesque and depressing than cancer already is. That's actually fair enough. Brutal, but fair enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planted Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Glad to hear she's on the mend... I currently work in Oncology in Boston, and have a Urology background. Bladder cancer is typically, though not always, caused from smoking...the article didn't mention this, but it's worth noting. Nicotine is filtered through the kidneys, so it has time to sit in the bladder. Please, kiddies, don't start, and QUIT if you have.
