My mother had the same exact type of cancer. Very few people survive it, and even fewer who are of advanced age. She was given just 10% chance, and she was only 49
Sorry for your loss
Sorry to hear that

We like our heroes not captured
@Karl keep it civil, please.
There's not much good to say about McCain. The most constructive conversation I think about the topic is chat about what comes next
@Augustus We will discuss this tomorrow.
I'm finding it hard to find information on who is lined up to take his position
Yeah. I understand why he is despised, but it is not good form to gloat - at least not in a public forum.
It looks like the AZ governor has not been discussing it, smart and respectful
Ducey is a republican and a Trump supporter, so his replacement should be an improvement
I have a room in my SF, CA apartment for rent. It would be awesome if I could rent to someone from IE. In the off chance anyone is looking for a room in SF, please DM me and I’ll send the link to the add w pics

RIP senater u wer a tru amreican hero god bless u
Nothing but respect
@Auf WI see above @ to Karl. Civility, ladies and gents. We don’t have to “like” someone for the way they politicized their lives. But again, civility here. Thank you.
Apologies, but it was courteous to the tumor.
I hope his family was with him.
I wonder what this’ll mean for the midterms
Who knows
@Karl I read there will be an appointment by the AZ governor that will be until 2020
That's a pretty bad list apart from Salmon
God removed Rockefeller, Brzezinsky, McCain, it's getting pretty serious. Their hearts (and transplant hearts) can't stand the evil in them.
@TMatthews yeah I assume it may just be media messaging. Like you said, if the Governor is a Trump supporter then most of those people don't make sense to appoint.
AZ is in for a wild ride. I can't imagine the talent that is going to replace him.
*young uncaptured talent
@ThisIsChris Salmon had a good NumbersUSA score. If former gov Jan Brewer was in the running, she'd be good too. Appointing the former senator who would retire in 2020 is the "respectable bipartisan" thing to do. Hopefully Ducey just goes for a solid young conservative who can hold the seat a while
@Johnboy Yeah AZ has been a deep red state with a purplish senator for a long time
AZ is turning purple from demographics
@TMatthews good point. Checking NumbersUSA is a good idea.
Kinda strange to think that cali was Reagan red 40 Ish years ago.
Yeah
