went Bye bye.

It's a shame. It was nice and long and was full of venom and spit. But upon more thought, not worthy of the time it too to post.

Tony Snow at age 53 has passed away to day. He died from Colon Cancer.

I can closely relate to those with Colon Cancer. My dad had this cancer and it was one of 4 cancers he finally passed away from. My dad, if nothing else, made sure I learned full well about the suffering tied into cancer. It sucks. It is a terribly long drawn out way to die.

If you haven't had a clolonoscopy yet, get one. For me, it was a painless operation and I came away greatly pleased with the results and the procedure. The hard part is what you get to do prior to the actual exam. Your colon needs to be cleaned out. They have a lovely liquid which I got to drink. You consume a large amount. The details aren't pretty, for involves the toilet a lot, but very necessary. Get the exam. Compared to the illness, cancer of the colon, it is a piece of cake.

Tony suffered with this terrible disease for 3 years. My dad had it for about 5 years. It's painful, at times very embarrassing and there were many visits to the doctor and the hospital. Trust me, you don't want to have to deal with it.

On a side note, there is a blog named KSHIPPYCHIC. She has a post where she is talking about her Garden and some of the odd things her veggies are doing. She has mutant tomatoes, spooning squash and a large Pumpkin, which she says is female. Anyway, check out her interesting blog.

She also has a Photo blog with some very nice Photography from Kansas.

Having a father that died of cancer, I can sort of relate to what this lady must be going through. This is what I encountered this morning. Seems legit and seems very serious:

If you click this pretty button below, you’ll be taken to Miss Ann’s blog. There is a raffle going on for Lisa of Clusterfook. We want to make a dream come true for her. Lisa has been diagnosed with cancer for the third time in what seems like as many years. She wants to take her daughters to Disney World, something she can not afford.

Lisa is one of the bloggers I started reading almost immediately upon entrance into the blogging world. Her blog at the time, Rock Bitch, was like nothing I had seen before. She was snarky, honest and oh so funny. I’ve kept up reading her each time her domain has changed, whether cause she blew it up or whether she just wanted a change.

Lisa, you are strong and beautiful and I have faith you will pull through this. Keep putting one foot in front of the other and know that I am here if you ever need me."
