RE: Perineural and Lymph Node Tumor Invasion in a Gastric Carcinoma
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Stomach Cancer is bad news, I had a close friend died from it aged just 42. Too late to do anything when they finally diagnosed it. Until that time, he'd just had increasingly bad gastric reflux, leading to an inability to eat large meals and within 3 months he'd died.
Life is a pretty random game to play.
Hope you're having a great week fella :-)

I'm sorry to hear about your friend. I have come to a point where I approach the sign of cancer as a curiosity for academic reasons compared to thinking there's a person that is going to read the report at the end of the day. It makes work bearable. Just this other time recently the patient I'm following up finally received confirmation on the stains requested as to his tumor status. He doesn't have much time to live and I'm probably better off not seeing a sad reaction in his face when he reads the report.
