Very touching. My own wife (at 33) was diagnosed with breast cancer this year, but I feel almost guilty to say everything turned out okay (we believe).

The disease is a motherfucker. I can't imagine watching someone I love going through the later stages, unable to protect them.

Now back to my regularly scheduled trolling.

Very depressing. These pictures may serve some purpose but I'd rather avoid anything that would reminds me of this horrible disease.

While I don't like seeing it too and rather wish to avoid it, but i feel like this avoidance attitude is not helping.

Actually really I'm not sure if anything helps that much, which is just as depressing..

Very touching. I took some similar pictures of my mom as she fought pancreactic cancer, and of the emptiness she left on rooms and objects.

I find that contemplating the pain in this straightforward way prevents it from growing into some kind of monster in your memories.

Maybe link directly to the guy's site, instead of some random content aggregator: http://mywifesfightwithbreastcancer.com/

Thank you. I read the article, looked at the pictures, and when I got to the end with the "Like us on Facebook!" crap it it cheapened everything.

The traffic needs to go to the source page, not this bottom-feeder site.
