you wanna know what's Evil? I mean actively malevolent and atrocious and EVIL?

Cancer. You will never convince me that it's simply cell mutation and, though deadly, completely without conniving, scheming bone-deep rotton Evil.


Mike's dad has cancer. He was diagnosed awhile ago, and initially with lung cancer. He began chemo, and was feeling surprisingly well.

He went in for tests to see how it was doing and got both and bad news. The lung cancer has shrunk, but a completely different kind of cancer had invaded his lymph, adrenals, and bones.

He continued with chemo, a different kind this time. He started to feel nasty after treatments.

Today, this morning, he had a seizure. After hours of tests, an MRI showed It had travelled again. Into his brain.

He's resting right now, still in the hospital, under observation. Please, keep him in your thoughts, prayers, or whatever avenue you use for good vibes. Also keep his daughter, Ariel, his wife, Shaun, and his sons, Mike and Steve, in your thoughts.

They all need strength.
