Yep, he's only 17. Around a month ago, maybe a couple weeks his arm swelled up really big and he was taken to the hospital where they thought it was one thing, which I cant remember the word for it. Turns out its a really REALLY rare type of bone cancer that has already spread up to his brain. He's in Stage 4. My dad told me today that Justin probably wont live.
I dont really know Justin "That Well" but we've talked and stuff, its just a hard thing to deal with.

My father had lung cancer. He offed himself recently because of it. That was a different situation though - I don't miss him.

Loving_Daniel11

Aww. Sorry though. *Huggles*

Baby Beast Boy7
it must suck having cancer.....

Loving_Daniel11
Yeah. And the funny thing is is that I just saw him at christmas and I have a picture of him laughing and cutting up, and the next thing you know..two weeks later he's at a hospital.

Fearnix
I have never met any one with cancer.

it just really suck

Loving_Daniel11
My grandpa died of it and some of his relatives, my dad's friend has it and only has a week or so left, my cousin has it now...

Fearnix
most of my relative's have died of unnatural causes cry

If they can cut it out early enough hopefully everything will be ok.

It's such a sad thing, I know how it is.

If you need to talk, don't hesitate.

Loving_Daniel11
No babe they cant just cut it out. Its IN his bones, and has spread to his brain.

Alpha Centauri
Ohh my bad, I didn't see the bone thing.

I'm very very sorry. Truly.

You have my condolances.

Drifter101
yea ive delt w/ a cousin dying, but it was outta nowhere, he had something wrong w/ his heart, the doctors dont know what it was they said causes unknown in the end, but anyway, it is somewhat better to prepare yourself for this type of thing then for it to happen outta the blue like it did for my cousin, it may be more peaceful, i dont know i havent delt w/ that type of death, only this random "why?" type

Loving_Daniel11
thanks Fairy.
Yea that's nicely put Drifter.

I'm truely sorry to hear the news of your cousin! If you need to talk, to any member of kmc we are here for you!

JToTheP
I'm sorry to hear that. That's....wow, I've NEVER heard of that sort of form of bone cancer. I'm sorry again.

fever red
I'm sorry, LD. 17 is so young. I hope you can visit him, but it will be tough. He may not be in a clear state of mind if he is treated with radiation, chemo, or palliative measures. Still, it helped me to visit when someone in my family died of cancer. For her it was very long. I'm so sorry your cousin is so suddenly, severely ill. I pray for his recovery. If his cancer is terminal, then I pray that he will have some time and the health to do the things he needs/wants to do.

Loving_Daniel11
Thanks cf and jt!
He hasnt started chemo yet but he has something inserted called..port I think. Its inserted into the opposite side of the arm that was found first effected. Yes, It's hard to face something like that, and so suddenly too. I guess it shows you you especially need to enjoy your life while it seems to be going great because you never know what you may face the next day in life.

fever red
OK, the port will probably be for administering chemo. If they're treating him and not simply offering palliative care (pain management) this is good. It means they are fighting to give him the most and best time they can. They would not do this if there weren't a fair possibility of extending his life and having it be quality.

Loving_Daniel11
Yes I know, thats true. His mother (My aunt) Is so so tore up about it, but who wouldnt be ya know. She wont leave his side. Some of my relatives are going to see him today, I might be able to go. Im not sure.

Clovie
i'm very sorry.

Loving_Daniel11
'tis alright

Kosta
Thats really sad LD, My thoughts and prairs are with you. sad

Im again, so sorry sad hughug

Filth
i'm sorry to here this hope he gets better big grin

Loving_Daniel11
I just got back a few minutes ago from seeing him. He was asleep the whole time but we were with my aunt in the family room and some of my other relatives visiting. I got to go in and see him though but had to sanitize my hands and wear a face mask before I could enter. It's really sad. He's always been a small boy around 112-120 lbs Id say, my aunt said since he hasnt been eating he's now down to 100 lbs.... His chemo started yesterday but my dad says the illness is terminal so he wont live for too much longer. They took MRI scans and stuff but they havent figured out if the cancer has spread into the tissue in his brain yet but if it has it will just reduce his time on earth. He's been really sick, my aunt says he's pretty fine when he's laying down but when he gets up he gets sick and vomits..which is pretty much why he's lost all the weight, that and he isnt eating and stuff. It's pretty sad to see.

Im going to go ahead and repost this since it got knocked back a page, so people can see it since I said Id keep it updated.

That's horrible. I'm sorry. Good for you for visiting. I know that helps your Aunt, and your cousin- it will matter to him that you were there.

Loving_Daniel11
Yea, I didnt want to leave when we did but had to. He'll be going home tuesday if everything goes a-okay so my parents said I get to visit him when he goes home smile . Wow, this is totally bummer, I mean I know i dont know him that well but we've grown up together in a sense..He's only a year older than I am and I've seen him at every family reunion since I can remember, and just this previous summer he was playing kickball and having fun. Now he's in a hospital bed, having to have chemicals injected into his body and everything....

Aw, Im so sorry. sad

Dark princess

Loving_Daniel11
So am i. sad

~Air Angel~
don't be sad....just be glad they'll be in a better place and not in pain anymore. big grin

Loving_Daniel11
True that is. And in the past few days my aunt told me that pain is all he's been experiencing, especially from the surgery and chemo. sad He has to keep going back every three weeks for the next year for treatments if he makes it that long. He may get to leave the hospital tomorrow if everythings alright...I will get to visit him at his home sad smile

~Air Angel~
Cousin's are special so enjoy your time with him! big grin My cousin died of muscular dystrophy when I was 16... i was so sad. sad but am glad he's somewhere better! smile

Loving_Daniel11
Yes they are, Justin's a good boy.

dark1365
How is he right now...?

Loving_Daniel11
As of after yesterday I know nothing of the moment, Im sorry to say. Ill probably get more updates in the next few days. All I know is that he is very sick and is administering his second day of chemo, and if everything goes well he gets to go home tomorrow.

Loving_Daniel11
Small Update: Some of my uncles and other relatives went up to their house and sanitized his room, we may be putting in an air clean system for him.

A4E
well does that mean he's not in mortal danger anymore?

Loving_Daniel11
No it basically means that his room is disinfected from any germs, because he cant be exposed to too much contact of it. Thats why every time we entered his hospital room we had to sanitize our hands and wear face masks.

I think so. You should do image brackets rather than uploading image from your computer. then you don't have to click it to view it thumb up

Neo Darkhalen
Fair enough, is that why it says, "Please Click here to view this image" or was this because of his own stupidity, I mean come on not very original to try and Own someone by posting what they posted before, quite pathetically obvious; simple, besides this is all against NASA.

Bloigen
Saying "He is a... You Fail" doesn't help either.

Neo Darkhalen
Very true, but it still was pathetically simple of him to post that.

You posted a gif by attaching it to your post, which does not show it directly, but makes you have to click on a picture that says "Please Click here to view this image", since that is rather "fail-ish" I thought it was rather funny to point out the irony and underline it with posting the gif you failed to post directly...directly.

But it sort of backfired, since I did not know the error of which is made apparent, but I can see the entire cause for your post know, however I still find it less then Amusing........................

Actually no, it did not backfire but got ignited by your misunderstanding of it, it made a decently funny thing an amazingly funny thing. Also, it was not aimed at amusing you.
