    Hey Dr. Doosh - STFU. If he needed advice he would have asked.

    Your statement is based in complete ignorance, which is really no surprise anymore.

    So to correct you, chemo works extremely well against many cancers, but it is not always 100% effective. Chemo works better against certain types of tumors, depending on it's advancement, and last I checked, the guy didn't mention what type of cancer or how advanced it was.

    I'm sure this will go right over your head as facts don't seem to matter to you

    I agree, there is a surgery method as well, but Chemo decreases risk, and I think for women, children will be a problem to have after chemo. Guess it depends on circumstances, knowing all options, and people's decisions that will give best results.

    Don't fear anything. It's all random when we go from this life.

    What happens after? We can't know; we're not evolved enough.

    99% of me thinks will never know; cause our brains will be done. As a human you can't believe it's over. It just doesn't make sense to accept that kind of finality

    I would say its the same as before you were born. You simply cease to exist. From a gambling stand point it is always +EV to believe in god because if you are right you get into heaven. It is a win win. If you go through life bad mouthing religion and you are wrong, enjoy the lake of fire.

    I lost my dad (58) and sister (31) and girlfriend (30) in a 15 month period.

    It happens and it's unstoppable and unpredictable

    New motto after that...carp diem

    I'd rather not die slowly if I can avoid it, but if every human who ever lived before me can handle death, so can I.

    I clicked on this thread and was surprised to see that I had posted here back in 2015 shortly after being told I had cancer. At the time, I hadn't even started chemo yet.

    Well, I'm happy to report that 7 months of chemo were successful in 2015-16 in knocking down the leukemia and I am in remission and on maintenance meds. The cancer will come back or morph into some other form, but I don't dwell on it. Sometimes it gets me down, but I snap out of it pretty quickly.

    In one of my previous postings in this thread, I said I wouldn't see 70. Now I firmly believe I won't see 65. I'm 57 now.

    To get to the heart of this thread, I am not afraid of death. I am not religious and I believe that death is final. There is no afterlife.

    I have had 4 surgeries where I have been knocked completely out. I just went to sleep and then woke up. I didn't dream at all. I believe that's what death is. You just go to sleep (sometimes painfully), but you never wake up again.

    I have come to terms with my situation and I strive to live life to the fullest. I eat and drink (mostly) what I want. I am friendly and polite to people. I travel to visit places I've never been before. I wear loud Hawaiian shirts and try to always have a smile on my face.

    Live each day like it's your last, because it may well be. Do you want people to remember you as that asshole that cut them off on the freeway, or the guy that helped an older person load their groceries into their car?

    Veggie have you given church a try?

    There's more than just going to sleep and not awaking.

    Happy to hear treatments have worked for you!

    Veggie thats deep man. I think about how I will be remembered

    helping people is the highest virtue, I think if you find a way to help people it will give your life meaning

    Atleast thats how I look at it.

    Humans and apes have a common ancestor.

    Apes are still busy evolving.
    So are humans.

    The lover of life's not a sinner
    The ending is just a beginner
    The closer you get to the meaning
    The sooner you'll know that you're dreaming
    So it's on and on and on, oh it's on and on and on
    It goes on and on and on, Heaven and Hell
    I can tell
