Joined: Sep 2008 Posts: 489 | I was very touched by Swayze's interview and shed a couple of tears also Charm. I had not thought of cancer as an equal opportunity disease until you mentioned it here. I was especially moved by his reply to Walter's statement that she would be back in a few years for another interview "I'll be here. (long pause) "or I won't." The uncertainty of cancer. Sorry one of those days when I should go do something very physical so I will let some of this out.
