That sucks. It was amazing how quick it all happened for my cousin.
His appendix burst around the end of November last year. He started having difficulty swallowing in December. Was diagnosed with cancer and started treatment around the end of January. Died in the beginning of June.
Shocking to see an otherwise healthy man in his 40s go down so quickly.
Sorry to hear of your friends misfortune and I sincerely hope his treatment is successful.
