Do you know that death questions are hard to answer?

Question

many have no answer for cancer?

Sunman: I salute you....

I am having trouble picking a best answer

Answer 1

Could that be because not many people have experienced death and lived to talk about it?

Answer 2

I have seen that death questions are not hard to answer - everybody has a theory - but when cancer is brought up, suddenly it gets very personal. People either walk away or share their real feelings. And those are rarely very lofty or clear.

Cancer is confusing because there is so much indignity, waiting and pain involved, and even at our day and age, an almost certain death at the end. Sooner or later ...

So, of the two, cancer seems to be scarier. And more uncomfortable as a topic.

Answer 3

What answer can there be? This is the question of suffering; suffering is a result of free will and chance. There was never a promise given at the beginning of our lives that we should not have to suffer. The longer I live, the more I realize that suffering is universal and inevitable. It is the human condition, but it need not destroy us. For one who suffers, death can be a blessing. For another, the suffering can lead to a higher state of consciousness, a keener state of living. It is different things to different people. Cancer takes many, but I can't tell that there is an answer to this except to keep searching for cures while attempting to remain on a tenable path of civilization. And even then, it is a path, one of many possible, not so much an "answer."

Answer 4

The type of questions you are referring to are hard to answer.
I have had some experience, because my daughter was diagnosed with Cancer May 1st 1990. Then Died Nov. 18th 1990. It has been Many years since her passing, but I miss her as much today.

I think the reason people have a hard time answering questions about cancer, is because its hard to tell someone what to expect with chemo, Radiation, etc. Every person reacts different to meds, either they work or they dont. Some
May have to have numerous surgeries, like my daughter.
And some are sent home to live out their last days.

Answer 5

I am a moonlight dancer. Death is the great romancer. Break on through to the other side and be amazed at the turn of events. Yes, death questions are hard to answer. One must be willing to give up everything. Beliefs, time, religion, family, and many others. But can start simply with the question. What dies?

Answer 6

God has promised us that He will not call us home until our earthly work is finished, for some that comes at a young age and for others an old age.
Death is not the end, we are merely entering another phase of our existence. Our soul will continue on, death is merely a separation of our body from our spirit;which will be reunited in the resurrection.

You will see your loved one again, in the spirit world. Marriage and family relationships can exist forever.

Death is a necessary part of His plan for mankind.
God allows bad things to happen to people because He wants us to prove to him that we will endure to the end and be faithful and true.
I know these things which I write are true. Death was overcome by the Savior when he was resurrected after He laid in the tomb for 3 days. Amen.

Answer 7

Rather but there are some who can give you an idea because of near-death or actual death experiences. Besides, if you look around, you find clues.

Like cancer. Cancer is something many have tried to understand and conquer and while not easy, there are tons of clues to follow and check out that makes it easier to handle the disease.

Answer 8

I personally don't feel that death questions are hard to answer. Death is experienced as we live our lives now. I experienced an enlightening experience this past summer (and...no it was not a "near death experience")...what I saw and experienced drew me to wonder if what I experienced was the same that I've heard others have that have had "near death experiences (NDE)". I found two different books (so as to compare the sources) and I found that what was expressed in those of others NDE was the same of what I had experienced, felt and seen in my experience last summer. Theirs was a NDE mine was another type experience...yet the similarities were validating. While I don't wish myself dead any time soon...I also don't fear death. What I experienced and read that others experienced through NDE on the 'other side' is...amazing...stunning...magnificant. So, for me death is simply an experience and so don't find death questions hard to answer. As far as your comment of cancer...to me whether it be cancer, hardship with finances, lost limbs, blindness, death, broken heart, lost job, etc.. . . all are simply life experiences and are all felt as hardships, illness and / or heart hurts and each is just as life impacting to the one who experiencing it. One may say..."someone close to me died"...another may say "The love of my life has left me for another and I'm aching from that loss". Each is as important to the individual feeling that experience. Why does cancer happen? Why does heart hurt happen? Why does concern over lost job and finances happen? etc. All are felt, hurt by and answers are sought out of the question of...Why?

I also have learned not to wait for "death" to experience what is in the other side...I connect with the Love of the One to me while I am living this human experience right here earth. I awaken that enlightenment as a breathing human being in my experience of Now.

"i wonder if i died and came back if you would still be led astray, or see the truth in dismay. so pardon my thug poetry, you people are blind to what's thought of a universal harmony. so this is my souls time to do it's own part in your conformity. when in my heart i feel alone out here on my own. can't you see i put my soul in this poem. and who's to say what's right or wrong, you people should already know the melody to this song. a G's unexpected birth verse from a life scorned then reborn" I apologize for that tangent! That was a little piece from one of my poems-thug-life forever! i only cared to share. Allman i have a death question which frustrates my mind more than any I've yet to think of.. to be cont.. ONE-MIND w/6billion particles intertwined!

Answer 10

Well...no one really knows about death--even those who have experienced 'near death' have been said, by some, to be hallucinating. People have theories, but none can be proved.

We don't know why cancer occurs, really. We know some contributing factors to various cancers, but we don't know why some are more prone than others to get it--we don't have cures for many types.

Answer 11

I have an answer for Cancer.....It takes the life of someone you love dearly.... I lost my husband to cancer, so the answer is it can kill you in the most painful way! And the answer to the death part is, that it somehow takes the pain away from the one you love so you and he can live at peace!
