I'm just a bit emotional tonight. I'm pissed and just need to share. I was worried as **** my son had the the big C. Can't even say the word. Anyway, he hasn't. He's ok, but the last 2 months have really ****ed my head up
Delighted to hear that B.M. Only just popped in to see what the Mackems were thinking about Saturdays game. What you and your family must have gone through in the last few months, puts talk of a mere football match into perspective. Best wishes for the future.
My son has recently recovered from lymphoma, he contracted it 5 years back. It returned after 2 years, more aggressively, then there was debilitating chemo which did not work, a search for a stem cell match and bone marrow transplant which also failed. Fortunately the 2nd transplant -July last year, which appears to have worked. I was very brave-faced over all this, while privately and silently crapping it. He certainly shook hands with the Reaper and at various times during the treatment a simple infection could have easily wiped him out for good. Curiously, when we got confirmation that all the signs were up and up, I fell apart. No parent should have to bury their child. My sympathy to you ...I know it's very, very hard.
It just go's to show. We come on here for a bit craic, a laugh, rant or rave, bit lark about & some banter. Of the regulars that come on we may think we know each other whereas in reality, unless a person is very open about their private lives, we don't. God bless you Shameless, I'm really happy the lad has pulled through.
Ffs man Shameless, you kept that quiet. Chuffed to bits for him, and for yourself. Like Billy says above, we think we know each other, but guess this is one thing you didn't want to speak about. Not to many secrets between, myself, you and Billy, like the ****ing 3 amigos. Over the moon for you mate..
Pity you're on nights after the Chelsea game mate, would have loved to share another beer with you. What about West Ham cos I've got tickets for that too?
