Seen Roger Ebert lately? Holy Smokes, man

This guy looks like something out of HellRaiser movie or Freaks.

Poor dude.

If you think you are having a bad day and the world is ONLY out to get you, take a look at his recent picture and thank whatever for that bad day, because it could be worse.

Guys ENTIRE jaw bone removed, fillet out , de-boned, like a fillet of fish.

Just a flap of skin and muscle tissue and lips simply hangs there supported by some neck brace or something.

I wonder if they are going to or can build an artificial jaw?

I think cancer got him, and they did some removal the 1st time, strike one.

They must did not get all of it, because now his jaw is gone, strike two.

If it gets him again, there's nothing else left to remove except his head, wow.

A journalist, as he is, you would think he would have access to resources to all cancer cures/recoveries/foreign techniques, doctors , etc., that is not normally covered in media or is not put on the news wire because of ratings or other reasons, but the sources are still there.

Usually someone who has to have part or all their jaw removed is usually a snuff and chew person, sometimes a smoker.

I don't think this guy can eat unless its thru intravenous ingestion, I'm not sure he can swallow.

So next time you rant and rave as though fate has singled you out and you have a had a very bad day, take a gander at Roger Ebert, and thank whatever for that bad day....,

.....and feel spoiled and ashamed to be so genuinely myopic.
