Title says it. He lost his battle with lukemia at age 16. I think im gonna go donate some to a cancer research center. Has anyone else here lost a friend/family member to cancer or any other disease?

sorry to hear that.

my dad's aunt has cancer, she's been going for treatments. it's been getting better though, so i hope everything turns out fine. She lost a couple of siblings to cancer.

Sorry to hear that. It's a damn shame when kids are hit with cancer.

I think most people have a friend/relative die of cancer. I once read that if we all live long enough, eventually you'll get cancer of some sort.

My condolences.

My condolences (sp?). A good friend of mine lost his sister to leukemia last year. She was just a few years over twenty, if memory serves me right.

Myself, I lost both my aunt and granny on my fathers side to cancer years ago.

I never met my grandpa because he died from cancer, but he was a smoker...

Cancer fucking sucks - My mothers cousin had it for years, and she lived with us during the end of her life because her family were a bit oOo:

It was a really weird and depressing thing too deal with. She was a really nice lady, and she had been dealing with it so long she started to go a bit crazy before she passed on.

I hate to see it hit such a young age, freaks me out.....

I'm not sure but I think my older step-sister type thing, died from Leukemia along time ago. This year she would be like 35

That sucks so young man. Two of my grandparents died from cancer, and my aunt had it and now is allergic to the sun because of her treatment.

I lost to cousins that were brothers in the same year to cancer. That was a hell of a thing.

Sad to hear man. I lost an aunt to cancer, she was in her 40s, and like trip she lived with us during her last days, it was really sad watching her waste away physically and mentally, she was a great lady.
