At least you get an email warning you…and somehow you still have the points.
I never got a mail and my points are also gone

One more stop and it would have been delivered to Jean Claude Van Damme in Brussels…

[Jett129]

Hell,One more stop and it might’ve made it to me in New Jersey.

Shout out to these lil bastards…while they are tough, look great and do their job...they also snag on EVERYTHING!

Guy who runs the hippy shop near me was diagnosed with cancer. From what I could tell (his wife was explaining it to another customer), they discovered it in a very early stage… So that's good...

FUCK CANCER

@Seul:

FUCK CANCER

I endorse this message.

Hope he gets through this.

A friend's father had a stroke last year, and has just had a tumour found in his sinuses. It's probably benign, but if not it could be nasty due to being close to the brain and its blood supply.

[Seul]

Hope he's ok.

It's been a real, real shitty year thus far… Dad was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in December. First bout of chemo didn't do anything. He starts a different treatment at the end of April.

If I think back on the difference of his condition between now and December (4 months), it's hard to stay optimistic... But somehow we have to...

Going for a walk with him and my mom this afternoon... Nice and sunny out... It's the little things... 

[Graeme]

So do I.

I lost my mother to cancer (Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma) about five years ago. She fought it for six or seven years before that, and dealing with that is tough, so you have my sympathy @Seul.

Fingers crossed he makes a recovery.

[neph93]

Very sorry to hear about your father’s cancer Eli. Terrible for all of you affected.

[Sage954]

Eli sorry to hear about your dad. Hope the new treatment works.
Enjoy the walk with your mom. Cancer Sucks

As a guy who just lost his Dad, I'd tell you that now is thew time to tell him all the things that "are obvious" and "don't need to be said".

FUCK CANCER

Sorry to hear Eli! Hopefully he will win the fight and recover soon.

Sending power to you and your family.

[sabergirl]

Ánimo, Eli! I hope that your Dad is able to fight it off, and I wish all the best to your family. [emoji3590]

I have the same accursed thing happening in my family, Eli. Godspeed and FC.

[Seul]

Yep - as I figured, almost all of you have had this happen to familymembers… I barely knew my grandmother on my dad's side as she died of breastcancer age 52... My mum's sis (my aunt) recovered from breast cancer just recently... So anyway: I honestly hope all your folk will be ok!.. My dad won't be, though... It's the 4th most lethal cancer, and the only possible way to beat it is after an operation... But the tumour wasn't operable and has been growing since (even during chemo) so it's just a matter of time... And with pancreatic cancer, time is definitely not on your side...

I've been very privileged in that neither of my parents or close family or friends ever got sick, or died... So my dad delivering the news to me... I was the first one he told... Well... It's honestly like experiencing a surreal nightmare you can't wake up from... It was like that for a month... It's not gotten any easier, though... I can tell he's getting worse quickly, and I think the next round of chemo will just make things worse...

C'est la vie... I'm gonna have a drink now...
