Rush Limbaugh announces he has advanced lung cancer

[Spike]

Limbaugh told listeners that the advanced lung cancer will keep him off the air on certain days when he receives treatment. He said the diagnosis has been confirmed by two medical institutions since he first realized something was wrong on January 12.

I wish Rush a speedy and complete recovery from his cancer. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Cancer truly sucks. I wish him well, treatments have improved over the last 20 years or so.

And he has a lot of money, so he'll get the best care possible.

Even the best care is very debilitating and painful.

Yep, lost my Dad to lung cancer 20 years ago, it was brutal for him.

 

[Steeltime]

Lung cancer is one of the toughest forms, given its propensity to spread. Best wishes.

Yeah, after re-reading that it did come off as calloused which certainly was not my intent. Cancer sucks in any form for everyone. So, I apologize if I came across as a jackass.

 

[Steelr4evr]

That's a horrible cancer to get. I'm pulling for him to prevail.

Yep, lost my Dad to lung cancer 20 years ago, it was brutal for him.

Just lost my uncle last night to cancer. Dad's brother and they were extremely close so he's taking it pretty hard. I'm glad he's at peace personally, because it was melanoma that metastasized to his organs and kept him bedridden for literally the last 2 years of his life.

I know it was a long time ago for your dad, but my condolences. **** Cancer.

Yeah, and the unfortunate news is that even among those who quit smoking many years before, the years of smoking increase the chances of lung cancer. Also, Rush smoked cigars for many years. Cigar smokers generally do not inhale the smoke, but research shows a definite link between cigar smoking and an increased incidence of lung cancer.

I smoked cigarettes for 30 years and have quit for almost 14 and I smile cigars but I don’t get out of breath like I used to

I watch my grandmother waste away to 90 lbs and die from lung cancer. She smoked Pall Mall filterless. It sucks.

 

[Steelworth]

She smoked Pall Mall filterless. It sucks.

Jeez, my grandmother also smoked Pall Mall filterless (3 packs a day), died of a massive stroke at 56. Way too young.
