I have cancer too

4.1 cm stage 1 clear cell tumor on my left kidney. No spreading evident. I chose to have it blasted by radio frequency ablation, if I am eligible. I guess that means they stick a small speaker in it and play really loud Beastie Boys or something.

Not the news anyone would want to hear, but my prayers are with you for a quick recovery to full health.
 
Found out today for sure. No revelations. No life changing plans. I would just like to survive it.

No, I'm not Ishmael.


Pretend cancer for a pretend woman or is this legitimate?

I'd like to know whether my sympathies should be genuine or not, Bert.
 
Good luck to you Ann. I went trough two C surgeries in the 1st quarter of 2013. I just had my follow up CT scans and MRI's and everything is still clear for me. So chin up, there is life after the C word.

I had the same thought. Cancer is not anything to joke about. I hope this is not some kind of warped humor.

If it's true, then my thoughts are with the OP & what will surely be a difficult time ahead.

My sentiment exactly. I hope he's not making fools of the people in this thread.

If it's true and we scoff, shame on us. If it's a hoax, shame on her. Either way, it costs us nothing to take her at her word and extend our sympathy and support.

Him, not her.

And, fair point, hence why my initial post was questioning rather than snark.
 
There's a lot of upside. It's reachable. fairly small. No chemo or radiation should be necessary. Now I wait for probably 3 weeks for all the ducks to line up. I appreciate the sentiments though I probably don't deserve them.
Of course you deserve the sentiments. Get that shit taken care of STAT. :rose: Thinking good thoughts for you.
You gotta fight for your right to kidneys.

Oh goddamn you, I laughed.

Thank you.

Ann! I wasn't expecting this thread.
It's great! Good stuff. Good on you. :)

Fuck you for doubting me. How's that for a joke? Fuck Islandman too. His sense of humor died long ago. I don't need your sympathy, your understanding or your pity. If you saw a stranger lying on the side of the road, there are those that would stop and those that would drive on. You know in your heart which person you are. Live with that.

I'm just a stranger lying beside the road. We all deal with adversity in our own way. This is my shout into the wind. Just ignore it if you like. What does it really matter, anyway?

A stranger lying on the side of the road has more credibility than you, Bert, so if you want someone to get fucked, go fuck yourself first as this doubt is of your own making.

More to the point, if you do have cancer, speedy recovery and good luck to you. If you don't and you're fucking with people here as you are when you pretend to be "Ann", I really hope that karma takes a big bite out of your ass.
 
Best of luck to you.....speedy recovery. You're like the 5th person lately that has told me they have cancer or an issue relating to cancer or early stage cancer..... Wow, cure this sucker already....

Good luck girl!

I'll take you off ignore just long enough to address this one post. I tried to see what you were made of with a few posts in the past. I don't know why you are here. You're not funny, you're not sexy and you're not interesting. Knowing that, I would probably leave you beside the road, for the world would be a better place without you. It's harsh but sometimes people need to hear the truth. Maybe you have another side you show to others. I don't really care.

I will probably survive this and I'm sure you don't really care either. We are all just trying to survive and that's what we do until we get hit with that 'one' that takes us out.

I'm showing my ass. Could you do the same?

And if you truly believe in karma, which I don't, you should be pretty concerned.

Wow. You don't know just how ironic your statement is. You couldn't be more wrong about me. But like you, I don't look for people's approval or understanding here.

I sincerely apologize for hurting you with my post. I wish for nothing but strength and healing for you in the months to come. I hope you kick your cancer in the butt and have a complete recovery. Stay strong. :rose:

On Lit, its perfectly fine to question validity of a post or a thread. It is the internet afterall...

Get well soon lady!

Scary as shit. I hope you're able to laugh about this years down the line. Or at least something positive.
