Looks like he's has some other cancer now, he's really not looking or sounding good at all I don't honestly think he has much time maybe less than 30 days, I am betting he was sick for longer than he admits. As much as I don't like the NDP it's too bad to see him like that he was always very lively.

Cancer is a terrible disease. The worst thing about that disease is tells the intestinal track to stop adsorbing the nutrients from food. That why Jack looks thin.
  I hope he can beat the disease again..

[Boberama]

That's too bad.

I hate him in some ways (guns) and respect him in others.

I hope he pulls through.

i wouldnt wish the disease on my worst enemy ... jack layton was and is my/our worst enemy as western canadians in many ways... that being said i hope he pulls through and doesnt have to die this horrible death

[Sonny]

I would never vote for him but I do wish him the best.....dang he looks bad..

[Chris K]

He really doesn't look or sound good.  I wish him and his family the best in fighting this horrible disease.  Listening to his speech, I got the impression that this may be the last public message we hear from him if he doesn't beat this, and it seemed like a brief summary of what he wanted to accomplish as a politician.

Although I don't agree with his politics, my heart goes out to him and his family.  In a war, I would want him on my side.  He is a fighter who will tackle this challenge head on.  Obviously Canadians feel a connection with him and the whole coutry will support him through this battle.

[walleyes]

Not something you wish on any body.. Hope he can pull through..

[AxeMan]

Cancer is terrible.  Support cancer research.  Too many people have to deal with it directly or indirectly.

I'm not an NDP but I hope to see this man in the political arena in Sept.

[MAV]

As everyone has said I wouldn't want his politics running the country but I think he'd be an entertaining guy to hang out with.

Good luck to him and his family.

 I don't agree with his politics but I hope he pulls through. If not, I hope he goes quick. Tough to see what cancer can do to people.
