Too young. 50 is supposed to be half way:(

I liked him because he always seemed like the nicest and most calm one. The other two always seemed kind of neurotic and drugged up all the time.

Not do get even more down than we are about this, but I can't imaging coming to grips with knowing death from something like cancer was inevitable. I thought a lot about that after Hillman Curtis died. I'm a pretty strong person, but also one that often wears my heart on my sleeve and can get kind of emotional about memories, dreams, etc. It's hard enough to realize I can't live forever and keep my fingers crossed that I'll live to some ripe old age or something.
But I can't fathom what it must be like to realize you're on that descent - especially too young in life. To even try to comprehend that just shuts my mind down and makes me feel like I've got tunnel vision and can't even hear anything around me. Last summer I had some stomach issues that required a CT Scan and blood tests, and my mom immediately got all worried that I was getting colon cancer because it runs in her family (how's that for motherly support and confidence?). Turns out I was just full of shit - literally - and just needed something to help me poop and I'd been backed up for days. Thought I had appendicitis. But that simple fear that something serious might be wrong, man, it was heavy. I don't know how people do it - dealing with the inevitable from cancer, especially when they're young and they're going to die too soon in life.

Such a tragic loss. Since I heard the news I've been reminiscing about growing up and how many life experiences The Beastie Boys can directly remind me of. RIP MCA.

its been a crazy cancer day today..
first up my mum skyped me to tell me my dad, who was having a routine check before a small operation so he could start dialysis for his kidneys.. well, the doctor found a tumor in his bowels..
Then MCA dies.
then this evening my wife and I watched this seth rogen film 50/50 which she downloaded.. completely unaware of its story line.. also cancer..
i know its just coincidental shit.. but yep, for a person who usually doesnt think about cancer.. its been a pretty cancer populated day for me.
- that said, 50/50.. was actually a pretty awesome film.. as films go latelyautoflavour
- Heavy times. =( And, yeah, 50/50 was really good. An uplifting tear jerker, funny but didn't make fun.elahon
- I hope all is well with your father. I lost my Dad to liver cancer in less than a year after diagnosis less than two years ago. Pryers with you and your family.discoduro
- years ago.discoduro
