my friend was asking me about this and we are both going to bootcamp on next 2-3 months.. is testicular cancer will delay him from going to bootcamp or the military will just going to kick him out?

Any significant medical condition such as that is disqualifying. Assuming that they discover it before he ships out, they’ll tear up his contract. If it’s discovered in basic, he’ll be separated and sent home.

If they can substantiate that he knew about it in advance and withheld it they technically could prosecute him for Fraudulent Enlistment but that would be exceedingly unusual for a medical condition. That’s usually reserved for undisclosed criminal convictions or undisclosed drug abuse or other issues of "moral turpitude."

my dad has stage four colon cancer and was diagnosed in mid december. its spread to his liver and lungs and part of his stomach. he also has luekemia. what is the longest he could live with certain treatments?

No one can give you an estimate time on your dad’s life. Every individual is different and every persons body reacts differently. In the meantime it would be good for your dad to try and keep his nutrition healthy and he might even try anti-oxidants to help slow down the process of the cancer spreading. Anti- oxidants bind with free radicals and definetly helps to slow down the process. Your dad’s condition is serious and advanced. Prepare yourself and accept the fact that he has this disease and ensure spending lots of time with him.Prevention is always better than cure

I am only 14 years old and today i was diagnosed with colon cancer symptoms and im not sure what to do! I am very upset about it and feel that my friends should know about my condition.
How can i tell them without scaring them?
And what shall i do to make my self feel better??

thankyou to anyone who can help me!

“Colon cancer symptoms” is not a diagnosis. If you truly were diagnosed with colon cancer not scaring your friends should be the least of your concerns. When someone your age gets an adult cancer it is far more dangerous for you than it would be for a 60 year old person.

Testicular cancer is a form of cancer that affects many men. Learn what it is like living with testicular cancer in this health video.

Does anyone know the prognosis for prostate cancer that is now in the kidneys, lymph nodes & collar bone? Is this the end? Is there still hope? How long does the patient usually have? Please be honest with me. Everything I have already read on the internet is bad, so no answer will shock me. I just think I am not getting the full story from a loved one.

It sounds bad if the prostate cancer cells have spread. If you really need to know, you should ask the doctor as it is your right to get the truth about your condition.
