It’s difficult to comprehend how a professional athlete, someone at the peak of their strength , can be the one dying to cancer while ordinary weaker people are unaffected . 
I’ve seen this happen where the track coach at school, who used to jog through the hallways and encourage everyone to have a healthier lifestyle , got esophagus cancer and became a walking skeleton. His death rattled everyone.
He didn't even get diagnosed until August. He was probably at a 4th of July BBQ with no idea he'd be dead before Christmas. >

Well that's got my anxiety spooling up. >

You only have 2 more days! You're almost there you can make it! >

Can I just say fuck cancer? Because fuuuuuck cancer. >

Fuck cancer. Lost my wonderful Father in Law to it. So ya, fuck cancer. >

Same, my FIL died five years ago on Christmas Day. My husband has a different kind. 
I’m so sorry about your father in law.
Fuck cancer. >

Oh wow. I'm really sorry about all of that. I really am. If you need to vent, I'm here, Internet friend. >

Aw, thank you. I’m lucky and privileged enough to have a really good therapist who has been taking care of me, but if you need it feel free to vent to me. >

31 is far too young for anyone in life >

Just crazy to think that he achieved the highest team victory in his sport and then not many years later is swiftly overcome by cancer. Life (and death) is a crazy deal. >

How awful. This poor young man! My condolences to his loved ones. He died far too young :(
