I'll show YOU!

PS.... Oh wait...
You know I've been on Chemo before, that shit sucks. Generally upset stomach the first couple days and weakness. If you get too weak, GO TO THE HOSPITAL AND LET THEM KNOW. They changed my medications right away. You might have to do physical rehabilitation while on chemo to stay strong, but I know you can do it.
You and I can quit smoking together.
You're a stronger person than I, I've been fucking crying all night concerning you. Surgeries aren't bad. If you're lucky you'll get a smoking hot anesthesiologist or surgeon to molest you. You were probably due for a colonoscopy anyway.
Glad to hear from you so much.
If you'd like us to start a gofundme to help your bills I'd be the first to chip in.
Love ya, hon

Rot, I've had a lot of experience with cancer, and it doesn't sound like you are in too bad of shape. Just don't let the "C" word get you down, it's not incurable, it's just another disease that needs its ass kicked, just like any other. You'll be fine!
It blows man, I lost 1/3rd of my body weight and opted for a feeding tube. That shit sucked and I pulled it out the first couple of times. There's some really good medications to increase appetite and I STRONGLY suggest you avoid a feeding tube unless you absolutely need it.

good to hear things went well, rot. in situation like this, life changes have to be made. it's probably going to be uncomfortable for a while, but you will get used to and adapt to it, and every thing should fall back into place. keep strong.
Bogard's wrong, you'll never adjust.... To me waking you up every single night from your phone going off like crazy~~~

Yeah, GohanX is right, cancer isn't incurable. Your chances depend on so many small and not so small details and the most important thing about those is, that you can influence them to your benefit, which means fighting back, with the perspective of an ultimate victory over this effing abnormal cell growth.
The only thing to keep in mind is the importance of being 100% motivated to fight it down, because your motivation will be brutally assaulted by tiresome therapies and those abrupt changes they unsolicitedly bring into your everyday life. Eventually it will become extremely tough, in those moments, think about for whom you doing it: the people you love, the people, who love you back just as much, finally, some of your dear lads on these boards... it's definitely worth to give up some things, that once were nice to have, for these vital feelings.

EDIT: Plus a lifetime of "checkups...."
EXTRA-EDIT: Meh... back home on Ng.com now...
Sounds like it was caught early, so that's great!
Hang in there, bud.

I'm sure it involves exercise, which is the best thing you can do! I need to get my flabby ass into gear and start a regimen. I feel my health slipping slowly.
P.S. - Fuck chemo. I know it's basically all they got, but it's very tough on your body. But however it makes you feel man, keep on going and don't let anything stop you! We're pulling for you man!

Hang in there Rot!
Damn Rot, that's depressing. As soon as you said Chemo red flags started going off for me.
I am kind of suspicious about chemotherapy. I have dug around online and found some info/books to suggest that there is a medical conspiracy of sorts to rake in as much money off of the unsuspecting masses by deceptive means by using chemotherapy. Hopefully you are aware of it.
