Random Thoughts from BIG BEAR

4. The Monster “C”

“Ask Steve Jobs; Wealth Don’t Buy Health” Pusha T

jim kellyThat monster I speak of is Cancer. I was just watching an interview ESPN did with Hall of Fame quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, Jim Kelly. During the 90’s; Kelly was best known for leading the Buffalo Bills to four straight Super Bowls and losing.

He spoke about the tragic incident of losing his son and his recent bout with Cancer. I was watching it and thinking how unforgiving that disease can be. Over the past couple of years, I have lost a few loved ones from Cancer. The process in which the body deteriorates mentally and physically is a tough thing to watch.

I know all death is tragic but the big “C” seems more lethal. The great news is, it is not impossible to overcome; according to the Cancer Society, there are over 14 million people alive in the US who has had some type of Cancer. To me it just seems like more than ever people are getting Cancer. Or maybe I’m just overwhelmed by the fact that there is no way to prevent it or cure it.

Just random thoughts; I guess.
