Rush Limbaugh has advanced lung cancer

Thoughts and prayers for Rush.

I see they already mentioned he was a cigar smoker.
I had heard smoking cigars won't give you lung cancer. Guess that was a lie.

It wasn't so much being a cigar smoker, but his bad attitude on smoking in general. I guess he was pro cigarettes and its smoke.

What? Me worry?

My mother-in-law died of lung cancer and she never smoked a day in her life.

My younger sister died from lung cancer. Smoked everyday since she was 16. Mother is 80. Smoked everyday since she was 21. Still alive, still smoking. They say it's like playing Russian Roulette. Only 1 in 10 smokers get lung cancer.

Does kind of suck when people blame you for your lifestyle. Your sick, dying, medical issues. "Well if only you had taken better care of yourself."
Maybe true, maybe not but being judged like that is not helpful.
It kind of reminds me of Morton Downey jr.

He admitted the cigarettes did massive damage to himself prior to his death.

We just don't know if cigars were the cause or not for Rush. it's up to him I guess if he wants to mention more details.

I mean look at George Burns if you remember the name. He massively smoked and lived well into his 90s.

Which does not seem to be all that high until one compares it to the odds of getting lung cancer without smoking.

There is no point in wishing him a tortured death. But perhaps he will make some good of this. When Yul Brenner died he made some very powerful antismoking ads. Maybe Rush can do the same.
I dont wish him one, it's a given that lung cancer is a tortuous death.
