    I've just come back from visiting someone that I'll never see again :( he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer nearly 5 years ago, went into remission, had a recurrence 2 years ago, they told him it was terminal and gave him 3-6 months. He fought it again, only for it to come back and finally take him over :(:(

    He is one of the loveliest people you could ever meet, always the life and soul and to see this nasty, evil disease destroy him is truly horrible :cry:

    That's really sad to hear. At least you got a chance to see him this last time, as unsettling as it was

    For a second there I was :eek:

    I was about to search for something on the web when i noticed an "unusual" saved seach term. I was thinking, "who the hell has been using this computer?!? :mad: :mad: I certainly didn't search for THAT" :eek: :eek:

    What was the offending search term?

    i forgot I was trying to find QoCs post about elf names to quote a reply :rotfl:

    Watching someone fighting cancer until the end is something I hope I don't have to experience again, it can be such a cruel disease to some. Slowly taking their independence and life away.

    I will keep the person you know in my thoughts and prayers over the coming days. And sending you a big hug hun. x :A
