I'd rather die of cancer than die of chemotherapy.

A friend of mine had a pretty agressive cancer at age 16. He suffered through chemotherapy, a bone marrow transplant, and another round of chemo a year later. I think it sucked pretty bad. I visited him once in hospital, they made me wear a full body suit to prevent any infections.

But that was 20 years ago. He lives a normal life now and has a family. I'm pretty sure chemo was worth it.
