Hartson has it in his lungs and brain, they''ve told him there''s nothing they can do, in these instances he has been told how long he''ll have left. Except of course try to prolong how long he has left by chemo etc. The operation he had was basically relieving pressure. Therefore most people generally perk up and get a second wind, rather than lay down and give up straight away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
