Good vibes for Michael Douglas.
Stage 4 oral cancer is not good; not that any cancer is.

1. Yeah.
Poor bastard. Supposedly it is contained, but even so, his pipes will never be the same. And he had a good voice.

4. My husband is a stage 3 survivor..
His fifth year mark will be this March, and he was 39 when diagnosed. The treatment is brutal; he's in for a rough ride. I read his drs are giving him an 80% chance of recovery; my husband was told fifty.

2. Michael Douglas makes a great villain.
But I thought his Jack Colton character from Romancing the Stone is one of the greatest, most underrated adventure heroes to come out of Hollywood.

8. He's wonderfully picaresque.
I read somewhere he was considered for Han Solo. I think he would have done it better than Ford.
