She had a radical mastectomy, a lumpectomy, brain cancer and lung cancer finally killed her. She was 86 when she had surgery for her brain cancer and lived another 4 years until the lung cancer.I'll have to research this a little. My dad died from a brain tumor in 94 but Tim's could be fixable. My dad's wasn't. They've come a long way since and I'm hopeful that he'll have a full recovery.
Btw, I won a friendly dinner and drinks wager many years ago when I was driving to golf with a few friends and one of them said that Wakefield wouldn't win 10 games. I won easily but the guy still hasn't paid up.
What was the quality of her life after the brain surgery? Cancer that late often goes untreated. At least with chemotherapy.My mother had cancer 4 times.

Unfortunately, my dad was a fit 72 and was given two options; 3 months without chemo and 5 months with it. My wife was a nurse at the time and tried to explain to us that the 3 months would be better because once he started chemo he wasn't going to be able to communicate. She was right.My mother had cancer 4 times. She had a radical mastectomy, a lumpectomy, brain cancer and lung cancer finally killed her.

After the surgery she still had a very good quality of life. She lived by herself,was able to care for herself for the most part. My sisters and I would take her shopping, medical appointments, etc.. She was a strong woman and bounced back from it pretty quickly even at her age.What was the quality of her life after the brain surgery? Cancer that late often goes untreated.

It wasn't his place to do that. If Wakefield wanted it public, he would have made it public. Schilling had no right to do what he did no matter his intentions.Seems to me that some people are more interested in making sure they talk about what an ******* Schilling is than they are in wishing the best for the Wakefields.
Schilling absolutely should not have betrayed something told him in confidence, but people are acting as if he said he is rooting for the cancer. He talked about the fragility of life and asked people to pray for the Wakefields because he believes that is helpful.
Yes, that is why I said "Schilling absolutely should not have betrayed something told him in confidence". Thank you for restating but repeating exactly what I said in my post.It wasn't his place to do that. If Wakefield wanted it public, he would have made it public.
