I know someone who lost his mom, dad, and his sister to cancer. I don't get it. This disease is so horrible, I don't know what to say... I'm so sorry Debbie.

I just don't see the point of life. I mean there's just so much suffering....Then there's death. I saw my father died, and he was in so much pain. Everything seems so pointless and unfair....I can't...

I keep dreaming about my father being alive nearly every day. Then I wake up and he's gone. I honestly felt suicidal today. There's no way I would do it because of my family though. But this is just...

My dad was hallucinating towards the end. It happens with the liver starts to fail and the toxins start to poison you. It could also be a metastasis to the brain.

It's incredibly disturbing and...

My father, Normand Corbeil, 56, passed away today at 2:56 PM. He was a great composer and an amazing dad... I am in shock.

Woah, you've just made me tear up a bit!

I had to make the tough decision today to give my father enough sedatives to become fully unconscious. Before it happened, he held my hand and told me he...

My father wants to be unplugged and wants to die.... Since he is suffering from mental illnesses, we have to decide for him.

I thought this was cancer, not Alzheimer's. this was our only luxury,...

He is in so much pain. Oh my god.... He takes morphine shot every 4 hours and still suffers a lot. He keeps saying he wants to die. What kind of disease is this? This is torture.

F**k Decatron. He's been hallucinating because of it.

So...Father has been in palliative care for the past few weeks. He's suffering from what seems to be complete bowel obstruction. Not sure whether or not it's malignant. If it is, it seems like this...

Sounds exactly how I spent my summer, minus the pancreatitis bit.

So the doctor said that a radiography wasn't worth it and prescribed morphine. He told my father to take anti inflammatories but those usually have harsh side effects on the digestive system, so he...

he has an odd form of pancreatic cancer. It metastasized to his peritoneum before "developing" in the pancreas. But the cancer is made up of pancreatic cancer cells.

He's pacing around the bedroom...

My father is suffering from enormous back pain.

I'm starting to think it's the cancer, but my father refuses to believe it and says it's because he's had back problem all of his life. (which is...

My dad had ascites for two months before starting his treatment. We thought it was a liver problem for all of this time. So I'm guessing it takes longer for some people.

Where do you draw your optimism? I have no idea how you can have this attitude.

2013 is likely to be shitty. This disease is a real nightmare. My dad has constant back pain now, I fear that the tumour has grown and that the chemo isn't working anymore.

Everything is awful.

Could be. Could be something else. Don't start worrying until you're sure. You'll have plenty of time to come to terms with it either way.

I've read a great book on cancer called "The Emperor of All Maladies" by an oncologist at the Massachusetts General Hospital, and he did mention that it was possible. It's not something that's never...

How can I put a stop to this? It's ridiculous. Anyone have experience with this?
