Before people get all teary-eyed about poor Ford, he should be thankful that he wasn't thrown off an apartment balcony. Or shot to death.

NEVER forget this.

Let's not jump the gun. Not all tumors are cancers, and this hasn't even been formally diagnosed as tumor yet. Meantime, I sure hope the Star doesn't pull tomorrow's story.

Gee, I wonder if the Fords knew something was coming.

Perish the thought!

They're just pissed that the hospital didn't send them a letter three days in advance to ask for their comments on the pending diagnosis.

it's 7:20 pm and still nothing...

Maybe David Blaine will present the biopsy\ct scan report.

They ALWAYS know when something is coming. Is it reasonable to hope that the size of this (possible) sympathy ploy is proportionate to the size of the news (hopefully) about to break?

On the "Working diagnosis of a tumor"...
Lets keep in mind that the Doctor can't just go to the press and reveal medical info without the patients consent.
I think Rob and Doug would impress upon the Doctor that the real diagnosis is not to be disclosed.

Hence the "working diagnosis".

I can hear Warmington having a conversation. He must be the most worried of the bunch there!

it's now past 7:30 pm and still nothing...

City tv reporting (like Don Peat) that Ford has had previous surgery for a tumour. Would expect such a person to have regular check ups with that medical history.

He can write a daily sympathy column.

If you are high/drunk all the time you tend not to go to the hospital.

CBC was number 2 to get there, apparently. National programming has been set aside for this coverage.

In my hospital PR career, many years ago, the TO reporter who gave us enduring grief was a young Sun reporter named Joe Warmington. He routinely ignored the privacy and confidentiality rules and we had cause to evict him from the premises several times.
