(65,934 posts)67. I am so sorry for your loss
I think I told you before how my dad has had stage 4 colon cancer for 4 years. Its still controlled, but it is a constant worry. He has had a lot of problems with the side effects of the treatments. I feel heartbroken by your story. We need to take the profit motive out of health care so that everyone gets the care they need. A country that ignores the health of its citizens will never be a prosperous one.
