Chewing tobacco?

USA Today doctor interview 

"There are many risk factors that increases the chances of getting cancer, such as age, sex, diet, and alcohol and tobacco use, among others."  

I'd guess all of those factors could apply to him.

Plenty of risk factors for stomach cancer. Why only mention chewing tobacco?

 

According to the state of Kalifornia everything is a potential cancer risk.

Because two of my daughters are R.N.s, one in oncology.
They see the esophagus rebuilds after losing it to chaw.

One of my lodge brothers was a smoker and chewer, and lost his to cancer as well.


My Uncle Joe died from mouth cancer, same reasons.

Alcohol combined with tobacco is the double whammy... the alcohol washes the protective mucus away, and allows the smoke/chew more direct contact with those tissues.

I don't have a dog in this fight, so I don't give a hoot about the bad choices others make.
They have to live with the consequences of those choices, not me.


The vast majority of deaths in musicians is from heroin.
So many of them also have alcohol problems as well.
It's a tough life.

Have been listening to CD's and watching DVD's I have of him since I heard of his death.  One of my favorite singers and entertainers of any kind of music. 

Kid Rock said he was called the "Big Dog" of country music.  Made 10 or 11 tours for our military during the middle east conflict.   

An American whose life should be looked at by our young people.  Proud, hard working, tax paying, family man, American citizen.

His Last Performance.
Must listen to lyrics. :(

Toby wrote that song for Clint Eastwood after spending a day playing golf with him .

Clint was making the movie Mule .

Clint even used the song in the move .

RIP Toby
