Rest in peace Doherty, Romans 14:8 says For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's. Keep resting in the bosom of the lord
Wow, had no idea she was sick.
Had a crush on her when she was in Our House.
RIP

Why was she in your house?

I'm pretty sure, I'm not a doctor, but I'm pretty sure if you die, the cancer dies at the same time. That's not a loss. That's a draw.
WTF do you mean by that.hbc07 said:

he's saying she didn't lose her battle, she just ran out of time.
Sorry, that's dumb. Then all deaths are "just ran out of time"swimmerbabe11 said:

you've never heard that at a sporting event? We didn't lose, we just ran out of time? I've heard countless aggies say that.
but also... what is death, if not literally running out of time?

Are you pretty sure?
You're equating a sporting event where we ran out of time but live to play another day to dying from cancer. Wow!swimmerbabe11 said:

Also, the cancer's goal is to kill you even at its own expense. If it really wanted to "win" and not die to cause a draw by killing you as alluded to by the other poster, then it's goal would be to leave you in an incurable state of illness to continually feed the cancer.
Her last word was "Eskimo"
You may need to eat a snickers.
I'm not the one who said it, I was just helping you understand what their goal was. People make up sayings and euphemisms all the time to make themselves feel better.
You are being pointlessly obtuse and pedantic..but I hope you have a lovely evening.

Haha - your "help" was obtuse and pedantic and a little clueless. But thanks for trying. HTHswimmerbabe11 said:

The poster who posted the quote about dying from cancer being a "draw" (because cancer dies too) has disappeared, or else he might have explained that his quote was originally a joke from a comedian, I believe maybe Norm McDonald. I don't think it was meant to have anything approaching the level of seriousness y'all are arguing about here.
that was a shocking tweet announcing her death. did not even realize she was sick
she was always good in everything she did, and a pretty cool human being
way too young!
to have her gone and Luke Perry gone,
with Tori Spelling in another divorce with grown kids - all when I grew up watching BH 90210 is just wild.

53. Far too young.
isn't that the day she passed?
and I am 5 months older than she was.
one of the only good articles from the NY TImes discussing her podcast. definitely want to watch it!

Her cancer battle has been in the news a number of times for years.
I'm surprised people didn't know she had cancer. She's been very public with it and was diagnosed in 2015.
Definitely a Norm quote.ConroeAg said:

Maybe the most public.

literally.
now if someone says she gained her wings in heaven, that's where I'm ready to get pedantic and fight lol.
Shannen was so iconic to the internet/entertainment intersection.
The "I Hate Brenda" newsletter, which was long before a place like TexAgs eviscerated 20yos, still remains in lore to this day.
What happened with her would never be replicated today.

Holy **** dude. Pump the brakes. Its not a sports thing. It's a reference to the fact that most call it a "battle" against cancer. Fairly common too, at least in my part of the world. It means that the cancer patient did not "lose" the battle but fought the cancer to a draw. Its just a way to append some level of positivity to the whole mess, usually for the survivors.jwoodmd said:You're equating a sporting event where we ran out of time but live to play another day to dying from cancer.

There is zero negative context to that statement. Actually the literal opposite.
yep. exactly what I was saying there.
lots of people don't like the connotation of people "losing" their fight, so they come up with ways to re-spin the words. I've literally heard people use the sports phrase I did in relation to their deceased loved ones..because they were big sports fans and would have appreciated the correlation.
It's not any different than people saying someone "passed away" in order to avoid the word "died".

3 of her 4 most popular shows:
1. Little House on the Prairie - Melissa Gilbert wanted nothing to do with her later.
2. Beverly Hills 90210 - By about season 4, all cast and crew want her gone.
3. Charmed - Leaves show after conflicts with cast.
And then on Our House, she gave Wilford Brimley diabetes.
However, now that I'm about her age, I feel that no one should have to die that young. Hope she was at peace and with family. Cancer sux

Hey guys! What topic unrelated to the actual point of the thread are we arguing about today?
First, I didn't bring up the sports reference. She said don't you Aggies use that. Pretty poor analogy in my opinion.Eliminatus said:Holy **** dude. Pump the brakes. Its not a sports thing.

And "holy **** dude" yourself - from where I'm coming from in my profession, unless you die at an old age of natural causes, you lost your fight to live longer. A "draw" is where both you and the cancer live but neither can get the better of the other. No death and no remission.

Would you say the Bohemians won, or Ferdinand II ran out of time?
Ok. You can disagree with a saying. There are several I hate too tbh. I have zero interest in defending it myself. Just explaining it and reacting to your what is now obvious passion about it. I can respect that. I know you're a doc and probably in the field or adjacent so completely understood. I get the essence behind the saying but also not a particular fan either so never use it myself.jwoodmd said:First, I didn't bring up the sports reference. She said don't you Aggies use that.
