My grandmother died, when I was incredibly young, from brain tumor. It sucks.

I don't think you can "beat" this brain tumour, the best case scenario is holding on for a few years, there are some people who have the tumour are under threatment and are still alive years after the discovery but I don't think there is a real "cure"

Most people live a maximum of 15 months after discovery so lets hope he is one of the lucky few but it seems like a very dire situation especially concidering the people who live longer then the average are generally young people who are more resilliant to the agressive treathments needed to continue to fight this tumour.

Whatever people think about him on how he does his job or politics/whatever most of us will one day get to hear we are diagnosed with something life threatening and thats horrible, scary and I wish him and his family the best.

Don't know who he is ( I'm british) but yeah that's savage, hope he pulls through

He's a warmonger, just as bad as the Bush family, the Clinton's and Obama. I don't feel bad for him, karma is a bitch.

Well, aren't you a prime example of the ideal person.

I heard about this just when it was announced. Horrible, horrible condition. My aunt has it as well. Anyway, I have great respect for the man. I think he would've made a good President had he won in 2008. Thoughts are to his family, hopefully he passes peacefully.

I knew something was wrong when he was at the Comey hearing and acting very strange

I don't agree with his politics, but I've always respected him for his service to his country and being someone who stands by what he believes. This is awful news.

On a related note. Barack Obama posted this on Twitter about the news.

"John McCain is an American hero & one of the bravest fighters I've ever known. Cancer doesn't know what it's up against. Give it hell, John."

hah he makes it easy for the right wing rags, I bet the headlines will be

"Washington elite urban BLM supporting thug of suspected muslim kenyan heritage shocks everyone as he speaks about 'hell' in relation to hero veteran John McCain's illness"

Seen Trumps post? XD His reply is fine, except for the ending... where he goes, "Get well soon." It's like, brah, this ain't a fucking cold x.x he was either giving a PR reply without paying attention or doesn't realize how severe brain cancer is... especially for an 80yr old man. At least he tried 

Yeah I under stand that. She also never had surgery they couldn't remove the tumor becasue of it's location. So she had radiation therapy. Now she is cancer free and fortunately suffered no major side effects from the radiation. Her vision became worse, but besides that she's fine.
