Oncology can probably be a depressing field, but I imagine that Eddie's doctor had a very hard time keeping a straight face when he told Eddie that yes, it's possible his cancer was caused by guitar picks and electromagnetic recording studio energy, and not 5 decades of smoking. That reminded me of The Simpsons episode where Homer got both arms caught in vending machines, and as the rescuer prepped to amputate, Homer earnestly asked if they'd grow back. And the guy just paused, and said, "Oh. Yeah." I picture Eddie's doctor doing the same.

If you would like to test your limit for human compassion, I've got a case for you - Rush Limbaugh announced on his show that he has advanced lung cancer and is beginning treatment.

If so, I have failed this test. I do hope he goes quickly.

I failed, too. Goodbye, Mr. Limbaugh.

Don’t sell yourselves short! None of you wished him a slow, long, and painfully drawn out bout with cancer.
I give you a C+ in Compassion!

I failed the test, but differently--I want him to get hooked on his pain meds (again) on his way out.
Blue silk lining for my hand basket, please.

I reacted to the news with a Nelson Munz-style Ha HA. So where does that put me?
(Actually, after I laughed I stopped a moment to acknowledge my horrible-ness and then reconsidered and laughed again. So, totally going to hell. Both of us! Boy, I’m awful.)

I failed too. On purpose. He's a heartless beast and I hope it really fucking hurts.

May he receive all the care and compassion he has extended to others in his lifetime. We reap what we sow.
