You die of an open gunshot wound or a lot of loving drugs really fast though. I'm just saying.

I worked with a guy who had chronic shoulder/back pain that he just ignored for a few months because he was poor. When he got it looked at the stiffness and pain was from a bulging lung tumor putting pressure from the inside.

When I was a kid I used to insist that his name was Squeak and now I find myself wondering which one would be the more likely sound he made before shuffling off this mortal coil.

My girlfriend’s breast tumor went from ‘not there’ to ‘size of a peach’ in less than three weeks. She was Stage 3a by the time she was diagnosed because it literally came out of nowhere and had already spread to a lymph node. An internal tumor in your lung could lurk for a while if you aren’t having any symptoms.

Probably more of a weak, hissing burble if I had to guess. Then he fouled himself.

As sad as it is to admit, I have more memories of his character in The New Class, when he became the assistant Principal and was paired with Mr. Belding in some ways not unlike the Skinner/Chalmers steam hams scene.

Can't remember any specific funny moments, but the Screech/Belding duo was probably the most bearable moments of the spin-off.

He would like invent something or have some kind of project that Zach would co-opt into whatever his scheme was for the episode.

Screech owed me $20.

Years ago he had some bullshit charity drive to save his house and I chipped in. Turns out it was a scam and if I ever met him I was going to dunk his head in a toilet until he paid up.

The guy seemed like a miserable curr for the past 20 years or so. Existing in a perpetual state of misery, loathing, vice, and ego. Anything in the media about him only seems to have reinforced it. I don't doubt it contributed to the malignancy. That kind of attitude shortens lives.

imagine being called "screech" your whole life, and your only fallback was "dustin."

Docs missed my grandpa's tumor for probably about 10-12 years, then he died within 4 weeks of being diagnosed with stage 4 metastasized lung cancer. Diagnosed at Thanksgiving, died about 3 days before Christmas.

Depends on the kind of cancer, if he had a tumor that ruptured in his lungs, the hed be straight up hosed and would die very quickly.
