Sorry, don't see it as such, if I heard someone reporting I had breast cancer I wouldn't panic, it is a fact of my life. Apparently, Fred is in remission, but it is something you must consider. His age is another factor or does he just look old?

It may make some folks consider him a hero because he is fighting the fight and he has cancer!

check the prognosis for it


See also: International Prognostic Index
The most significant factor in overall prognosis is the grade, or aggressiveness, of the lymphoma. Indolent (low-grade) non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is generally not curable, but is typically slowly progressive and responds temporarily to therapy. Aggressive and highly aggressive (intermediate- and high-grade) NHL's are potentially curable with combination chemotherapy. Long-term survival or cure rates for these diseases vary with a number of prognostic factors.

Age is the number one factor in survival.

Fred is 65
 
Makeup! Lights, Mirrors, ok Fred you're on!
*gee, I hope he's studied the script he's been given*
 
Desh is glad he has cancer since he's a repuklican. Which is sad

I think he's way too old anyway. He looks 65 going on 80
 
Looks like the Democratic machine (deshrubinator & Company) are nervous about old man Thompson.
 
Strange I was watching the talking heads the other night and they used the exact phraesa I have been using. Referring to Thompson as the great white hope and such....
I guess they are all just as stupid as I am...
 
ITs a sad thing he is sick. Did I hear over the weekend that he has a 7 month old child?
 
He was pressured in to the campaign by the same people who pressured Bob Beauprez to run for Governor. They can't help themselves...

Whoever this group is, they are destroying 'their' own party.

I read somewhere that his wife pressured him to do it. I wish I remember where. But I thought that was a typical male thing to say. I don't believe it myself.
