Maybe there is more to it than we know......maybe it is pot...maybe he doesnt have long to live.....we shouldnt assume....

Michael knows the risks involved and is addicted, Smoking is by far more difficult to kick than most other addictions. Leave the man alone.

Wow...You say that smoking had nothing to do with him getting cancer? This is the first time I have publicly called someone a name like this...You are retarded. Not the down syndrome type, but mentally retarded. Other than that, I'm speechless.

Smoking doesn't cause cancer and he is and will contract cancer again because he still has unresoved issues. I'm going to say his son's behavior because he may consider him self a failure as a parent or had bigger aspirations for his son. I'm describing stress and depression,the real cause of cancer and is really no big deal because it can be cured via self or therapy with a funny little medication we take for granted and it makes us happy. Peace out. Oh! I forgot something, in the end we all die from cancer because it is our alter-ego.Having said this,we can liver longer lives, provided we settle some issues we have been taught in "Western Cultures" Peace out.

You never "beat" cancer....once you've had it, it continues to be a part of your life.
