My life has never been so good as these last 9 years 4 months. Funny really but my life got better from the day I was diagnosed with Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Even though the bastard keeps coming back and it's back a fourth time but no treatment as yet and I am on watch and wait . Had another CT Scan today..

I was lucky though because I had not got a wife or kids . Dead hard for those who have..

And so hard for young people.

It's strange really because cancer wards and chemo units are full of laughter most of the time especially when people's family's have gone after visiting

I think it's harder for partners and family's of patients to be honest

I never have a bad day .

Why worry is how I think because I might get run over by a bus tomorrow...Anyone might...Anything can happen at anytime to anyone

Every one on here has been a help to me

And new friends I have made

Great Nurses and a great specialist...there more like friends

I am part of the Mac unit at Scarborough .
Having had something every month since 2008 though I did have 10 months off

For me there has been 99 positives
And one negative

I hate needles ...and I mean hate

Most patients I have met have loads of positives to draw on

Cancer gets a lot of mentions and sometimes I think other HORRIBLE stuff gets forgot about which gets me mad .

There's people on here WORSE off then me

No names mentioned

Just rabbiting on I know.

Cancer is not all doom and gloom really .

I am fine

Stay fine everyone else

Don't start pressing like

Everyone is in the same boat as I say

Enjoy each day....No one knows what's around the corner.. Even the most fit well and active people

Think I missed all this at the time , wasn’t on the board at the time . Just read this post and choked me up a bit , reminded me of my mum in Dove House , apologising she wouldn’t be around for my kids, amazing how people can think of others in this position . Very late, but RIP Filey .

I was lucky enough to meet him on the Not 606 train trip to Scarborough. He was a very brave, humble and quite remarkable fella. He told a good story about his days as a City fan.
It was a lovely day out, and we were talking of trying to make it an annual event. Sadly he didn’t live long enough.
Sadly, I can’t see a similar event being a success nowadays. People would spend all day arguing about which frigging platform the train was leaving Hull from.

The last time it was was going to happen the trains went on strike and you could get a bus there but there wasn't a bus back after the game.

Can't remember if that was before or after he passed.

EDIT. It was back in Nov 2018, how time flies.

Can't we just do it in Ebenezers?
 
Possible Fixtures:
16th August 1500 Scarborough A vs Fylde (City at home vs Oxford Sunday 17th 1500)
30th August 1500 Scarborough A vs Southport FC (City away vs Bristol City same time) Not ideal
2nd September 1945 Scarborough A vs Buxton International Break
11th October 1500 Scarborough A vs Leamington International Break

I won't go further at the moment as Sky are bound to change things
