CT: My uncle (whom I believe I have mentioned in this thread) is very likely not going to make it to Christmas. Hospice has been with him since last month, and he is deteriorating pretty quickly. He's on a pretty heavy dose of morphine, but the coughing is so intense... I mean, when he was diagnosed about two years ago, he wasn't 'supposed' to last six months, so he has been on borrowed time and fighting pretty hard, but it's still something I have a hard time accepting. The guy did everything you're supposed to do to stay healthy and avoid cancer, but still ended up with super aggressive lung cancer that is absolutely going to kill him. How the **** is that even remotely fair? On top of that, my mother has been told that she herself either has cancer or something called Still's disease... I'm just so ****ing tired of awful **** happening to people I love. I just had to vent.
