Just found out one of my best friends' dads has cancer. Went to the doctor because of difficulty swallowing. Esophogeal cancer. So I looked it up on Wikipedia. It says once symptoms start showing, the desease gets very difficult to treat. 15% five year survival rate. I'm praying wiki is wrong. Her dad and her don't always get along, but she loves him dearly. She says she's ok but she has a habit of acting too stoic for the family. I know she's devistated inside though.

She lives in Washington DC. I really wish I could be with her. They're going to see the oncologist this week.

Man, this seriously sucks. :(

I hate reading threads like these. I've been having difficulty swallowing lately.
