I recall he said that he tried to get something to work on his VITA for 4 hours straight because he ''couldn't let the machine win''. Noratings/10 cancer surviving attitude.

I can't just take your word that TB said horrible stuff like "bastard child" about Orion. Nope.

Its in the list above. He does say that he has a relationship of convenience where he gets sex and job support from his wife and she gets to enjoy his money and status. And they are okay with it.

But my heart goes out to him. This is a challenging time for him and I hope he gets all the support and treatment he can to help him through this.

I actually stumbled on the announcement before seeing this thread, I've been watching (and really enjoying) his shoutcraft starcraft casts recently, and I tend to watch one in the evenings. Today of course the default top link I click on google was displaced by his post. I was really upset to read it, more so than I thought I would be.
I think it's unnatural to come close to death and not consider how one's lived and how one wishes one had lived.

I doubt cancer will ever get "eradicated" simply because it's not a virus for which a vaccine can be developed, it's simply cells growing out of control, it's not so much a "disease" as it's a side effect of being a biological organism. HIV being eradicated is much more realistic goal.

Terrible news. I'm not a fan but I wish him the best and hope he can stay strong and keep doing what he does for as long as he can.

I believe that guy either didn't get a joke TB made or is otherwise confused.
And while "illegitimate child" still isn't a really nice thing to say it's still more of a factual statement than the offensive "bastard child". I'm pretty shocked that somebody would still use that term in relation to a real child.

Here he's tweet
"Well, I don't know if there is really a right way to tell people this, so I guess here goes. The CT did not come back negative. The cancer in the bowel is gone, but spots have appeared in my liver. They're not operable and there's no cure. Average life expectancy is 2-3 years, though there are outliers that live much longer. I'll be back on chemo in a few weeks, with the goal of pushing it back and keeping it there for as long as possible. I fully intend to be the outlier, the average is this way because most people that get this are old and not strong anymore. Who knows what they'll come up with in the next decade? I intend to beat it for as long as possible. Gonna need some time to process all of this. I don't really feel anything right now. Thanks."
hope he pulls through. I remember my uncle having cancer. :(
