at the same time this video is kinda stupid i realy dont think hitchens or allot of people r the typ that go RIGHT IM GIVING UP ON LIFE NOW BECAUS EI HAVE CANCER , evan though cemo is realy shit and the whole process is realy bad in the end people just go through it as they would annything else.

i think evan hitches said the whole "fight with cancer" thing is pritty retarded elivating cancer when it is just as mundane as annything else. it almost implies that people dont fight with other malidies allso for one person vomiting fealing phgiscaly fucked is far less worse than what another person might go through with family issues , or metal helth , or anny other number of illness or problems that arise in life.

This depends on which type of cancer you get. For the one hitchens has, the statistics are, to put it mildly, very poor.

Wikipedia: In general, the prognosis of esophageal cancer is quite poor, because so many patients present with advanced disease: The overall five-year survival rate (5YSR) is less than 5%.

Less than 5% survive 5 years, in addition, Hitchens' cancer has spread to his lymph nodes and lungs, so i hate to say it, but his future isnt looking too bright at the moment. I hope he pulls through tho.
