Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 176 | I just learned today that Stily1 (Seth) lost his battle recently. Seth was originally diagnosed with Tonsil Cancer in 2010 but has been battling a lung metastasis. He was a positive presence on this board and kept us all well informed during his experimental treatments. Seth will be missed by all, especially his family.
All the best to you my friend,

Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 1,275 Likes: 7 | It makes me very sad to know that we have lost Seth. The last time he posted, it was about a possible trial. I was hoping he would get in and that it would work for him. It is another loss to this forum, rest in peace, dear friend.
