My local radio station was joking around about it this morning saying that Michael Douglas said he got cancer from "going down" on someone. Really??? What are we 13 years old. I 100% agree with getting the information out there about this sensitive topic but I don't necessarily agree with Michael Douglas being so crude about it. Women get cervical cancer from the HPV virus but I don't hear anyone joking about that.

Not so funny when your loved one is dealing with it.
