I had hoped that it would not happen, but I appear to have evaded the inevitable for the past week out of fear, so yeah. Gentlemen. Play with your balls.

I think others in my family have died from cancer, on my mom's side. My other grandma (mom's side) thinks that you can get cancer from having a mole removed. Is that true? Messing with a mole at all is a cause for possible melanoma, so have a doctor you can trust perform it.
Today is the day. And yes. I am shitting myself. ;o
i pray for those affected. @luxio: you'll survive it. ;)
My maternal grandmother died in 2007 from lung and liver cancer, and my paternal grandfather died from colon cancer in 1999.
You'll be good, Luxio ^^
My friend's mom died from breast cancer when me and my friend were in kindergarten. One of my aunts was a high risk of getting lung cancer (But, her risk got lowered when she quit smoking several months ago). Also, my dad was close to getting colon cancer, but his colonoscrophy was negative, so my dad is cancer-free.
My mom was diagnosed with thyroid cancer 5 years ago. Thankfully it wasn't too bad yet. She's fine now, but she is missing a thyroid.
I most certainly do not have cancer, but I've lost a great aunt and a grandma to it.
All my grandparents died ten years before I was born because of lung cancer.
