..... for your overwhelming best wishes - someone somewhere wants me to survive! Got home 7pm last night, very sore and in some pain, but heart didn't give out so I'll take that any day. The cancer can't be confirmed, as they are leaving the lump in place, but the surgeon is fairly conviced that it isn't a tumour but a diverticular mass - still deadly if it blocks off the colon, but now sidelined. So, again, thanks all, and it just remains for me to add this .............> James Brown - Papa's Got A Brand New Bag Live 1965 (Remasterted) - YouTube
Excellent news Reebok. You can't keep a good dog down rest up and do whatever you've been asked to help recovery, good man.
Thanks Rudey - Yep .... and I can get it replaced at Tesco's for free apparently, keeping socially distanced of course
Good news Reebs. Ive a good friend in Kenya, he is the headmaster of one of the big international schools. In his early 50s, non smoker and drinker. He started to get a bit dizziness and blurry vision mid December , turns out sadly he has small cell lung cancer that has spread to his throat and eyes. Its not looking good for him at all.
For as long as I can remember - some 60 odd years - there have always been appeals for cancer charities like Cancer Research etc, and while not denying that treatments have come a long way from the late 50's, I have to wonder why this awful disease is still as prevalent, albeit less fatal as it once was, depending on the type and advancement. With the affluence of first world nations, more should be happening. Fingers crossed for your friend, Mal
I've been largely absent these last few months whilst trying to juggle work and home schooling so I missed this. Sorry that you have been poorly Reebs and keeping everything crossed that you are on the road to recovery
