Blind link? You're better than that.

That's great! Hoping the rest of the trials are as successful.

I think it is pretty obvious what you will find in the link.

Why do people give a shite. You could type "cancer free man" and when you click it, it could send you to a porn site.

Assuming it's a " legalize weed" post. Not clicking.

It's just the white thing to do.

Itv news. Sounds legit.

The 60-year-old was diagnosed with lung cancer three years ago, after suffering pains in his shoulder.
There are two types of lung cancer. Non-small cell already has immunotherapy drugs on the market that works for some people. Non-small cell patients are also candidates for surgery to remove the tumors if it is still localized.
Small cell is the rarer of the two and is very aggressive. It has nothing on the market beyond chemo and radiation. It can spread so fast that surgery to remove the tumors are not common from what we have been told.
My dad has small cell and maybe has weeks left to live. At one point after treatment and his initial diagnosis, my dad was in remission and "cancer free" as well. It didn't last long, though. Hoping that's not the case for the man in the OP.
I wish this article would have mentioned which one this guy had.

My Dad died two weeks ago and it still hasn't set in that my best friend and mentor is gone. I know how you feel right now.
Don't miss a second without him if you can.This post was edited on 2/5/17 at 5:06 pm

Damn stout, best wishes for your dad.

Sorry to hear that man.

Stout...Will keep you and your dad in prayers tonight.

Sorry to hear that man. My dad was also my best friend and mentor. He has been gone 6 years and not a day goes by that I don't think of him. It's not as painful as it was but certain things really bring it back.

Sorry to hear that, man.
I am very fearful as to how life will be without him.

Trying not to but he sleeps all the time lately due to the pain pills. I am actually sitting in his room now just so I can be here if he wakes up. It's been a long road, and my dad fought very hard, but I just don't want him to suffer any longer.

Are we sure it wasn't a placebeaux?
Posted on 2/5/17 at 6:14 pm to stout
Hope he's still lucid and responsive. My ex wife's mom passed from small cell that had metastasized into her brain. It is amazing how quick that can ravage a person. Good luck to you, I'll keep you in. My prayers.
On another note, targeted immunotherapy will be the holy grail of cancer treatment in my lifetime, I think.
