Some perspective...

[Natebishop3]

So Monday night I was feeling sorry for myself because the Blazers were getting dominated and the refs were bending us over, when I got a phone call from my mom. My dad has lung cancer. They've known for a month but they didn't want to ruin the engagement. Needless to say, it's been a shitty few days...

Sounds like a lame ass John Canzano article....

Sorry to hear that Nate. I've seen cancer run through my family throughout the years and know the sinking feeling you get when you hear that word mentioned all too well. My thoughts are with you and your family. Hopefully they caught it early enough.

 

[Denny Crane]

Yeah, thoughts with you and your family and hopefully they caught it early enough.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

praying for only good news for your family regarding this.

so sorry to hear Nate.. I know a post on a message board doesnt mean much, but my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and anyone else affected by this.

Parents are irreplaceable. Sorry to hear.

My father developed lung cancer back when I was in college. I know how you feel. I'm sorry and, like Denny, I hope they caught it in time.

Best wishes bro.

Good luck to you and your family, and congrats on the engagement.

I'm sorry man. That puts it in perspective.

Lets hope your dad beats the shit out of it.
