A good friend has just found out that he has stage 4 lung cancer. It has spread to his liver, several bones and his brain. He has a young family, with two daughters he loves very much. While he is in radiation therapy, he clearly has the fight of, and for, his life in front of him.
Please keep DL in your thoughts and prayers.

I'll keep him in my thoughts. My brother in law faced(still) the same diagnosis. He had brain surgery, and has been doing chemo for nearly 4 years now. Not in remission, but it's being managed, and he's living life.

I will send him good thoughts.
Stage 4 lung cancer is a big challenge but more people are able to hold it at bay than even five years ago. I hope DL is one of them.

Someday we will conquer that disease. I will pray for that day to come and for your friend motr. The problem is that it is not one disease, it is hundreds of diseases. And not even every form of cancer in the same organ (lungs, for example) is the same. This makes treatment a complicated affair. I recommend "Cancer: The Emperor of All Maladies" to your attention. It was a PBS special about the history of cancer treatment. I borrowed it from Netflix.

My sister and son seem to have recovered completely but there is always the worry of recurrence.

Their fight is done though.

I am very sorry. Think about him from time to time and keep him in your memories. No one who is fondly remembered is really gone, I feel. It's trite, but I've found it to be true as well. I lost a friend when he was just 50 years old, a few years back, and I try to do this.

I lost a friend when he was just 50 years old, a few years back, and I try to do this. That's how old one of my best friends was when he passed. We shared a pair of season tickets to the Ravens. I tried to continue going to the games but in the end it was better to sell the tickets. It just wasn't the same. Motr, did he have family? Are you close to the family? For me I found it cathartic to help his widow when she needed stuff done around the house. It kept him close in my memory. I still have his cell phone number in my phone 10 years later.

Really late to this. So sorry to hear this motr2, Dave sounds like he was a great friend. I still close my eyes and talk to my friend Laura when I need her advice.
