Forums - General Discussion - Senator John Mccain has Brain Cancer.

http://www.cnbc.com/2017/07/19/senator-john-mccain-has-a-brain-tumor-his-office-says.html

 

Damn. Very tough diagnosis for the senator. The tumor wasn't apparently discovered until earlier this week. Wishing him the best, and hopefully he can beat it like Jimmy Carter did.

 

Edit: Is apprently the same type Ted Kennedy had (which isn't good news to say the least). 



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Not sure this is gaming discussion... I'll move it for you :P

Thanks :).

Also, could you put this in the general discussion. The mods are really hard on me for doing political threads, and I feel this really isn't political (which is why I posted this thread).

I feel terrible for him. No matter who it is, Cancer sucks. Can only hope he gets well.

Damn that sucks. I voted for him in the 2008 election and to this day I still wish he had won, would have saved us from 8 years of Obama

But hes a loser that got captured...

OP- I hope hes okay.



I looked into his type of cancer, and it isn't good. 5 year survival rate is 3-5%, so the prognosis isn't good.

devastating diagnosis, hope he gets the best care available and can recover from this



Very sad news. Damn.



Awful news...absolutely terrible disease.

Best thoughts to Senator McCain and his family during this tough time.

Given the diagnosis I can only hope he enjoys his remaining time on this Earth with his family and friends nearby.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

Thanks for putting this on general. Politics shouldn't let us forget how terrible cancer truly is.
