The type of cancer Rudy had would very rarely kill within 10-15 years. With treatment such as he had, it usually doesnt kill at all. Even if it comes back, its usually very slowly, and the man ends up dying of some common old age ailment first. No guarantees on that - that's what the doctor's told my neighbor - who went into remission - but died 2 years later.
Let's not beat this drum...

His health is going to be an issue in this campaign. We better get used to it.Fred can be VP in Duncan's Presidency. Mr. Thompson will be safer there.
To: Rennes Templar
can be well managed with drugs and needn't interfere with normal activities.If this is the case, why are they making such a big deal about it?

I can guarantee over the next year the whole country is going to be a lot more familiar with Hodgkins disease. and we should fall into their plant and help make it a major issue? Like other posters have mentioned - Cheney was supposed to've keeled over some time ago too

“Then post some facts.”
First, read the article - this is a requirement for thread discussions on FR.
Then please post all non-factual statements here.

Wow! Great choice!! Michael would then become president, sooner or later, and this nation might actually be on the road to recovery from the deadly disease of Democrap.

The more I look at him, the more I dont see a two-term President. Dare I say less than a one-termer. We have to be ready for this.Just read your home page, Captainpaintball. You seem to be one angry man.
You also seem to have another candidate you're backing...

Then he loses my support, and I am one of his biggest supporters. I will NOT, under any circumstances, vote to put Giuliani in office.

Yep. This is exactly what they did to Cheney.

TO ARTICLE:
I sense (not just in this article, but in many more): some strange tropism to despair, moaning, and hopelessness — like it is a great thing to expire with one long pathetic, melodramatic heave. And so, many petulant “we don’t have a perfect hero yet” whines - go up at regular intervals... .. AND: “Let me be the first to say what the ‘realy bad news’ is.... sniff, sniff, choke, choke!
I am disgusted with what I perceive as severe narcissism in supposedly thinking ‘conservative’ venues.
YUK !

"From Medical News; By Mark Bloom, Editor-in-Chief, MedPage Today - April 11, 2007: "Thompson was treated with radiation and rituximab (Rituxan). Since then, Dr. Cheson said, non-invasive scans have found no evidence of disease in Thompson, and he is asymptomatic. Nodal marginal zone lymphomas account for only 1% to 3% of all NHLs. "
Some lymphomas are very aggressive, but people with slow-growing types, like Senator Thompson's, more often die from natural causes associated with old age, rather than from the disease,'' Dr. Cheson said. "

“He will pick Rudy as his VP.”
If he does, conservative support isn’t going to be all that enthusiastic.
To: Petronski; Grampa Dave
So much for doctor/patient confidentiality. Disclosure is Thompson's prerogative not the Sacramento Bee's.
Hit piece.
