Once upon a time, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor that would kill me within a year. Eight years later and it hasn't yet. I'm sorry you had this happen- I hope your pain is gone soon, brother.
You are so lucky. I know quite a few cases where it was the opposite. "Oh, you've got years left". And then a funeral three months or so later. Cancer really sucks.
No joke :/. My cousin recently passed from Hodgkin's Lymphoma- they told her that the vast majority of patients have at least five years, many of whom have at least ten. That was a little over two years ago.
There are two types of cancer. One that you will die with, the other you will die from. Unfortunately you never know which is which until it is too late. I hope that some immune treatments will be approved soon. Seem to be promising
