And that brings me to point of this not so happy post. My health has declined rapidly the cancer that was treated 2 years ago (malignant Melanoma) is back with a vengenece. Started Chemotherapy recently and more next week. it knocks the stuffing out of you. kidneys ironically have improved a little but they want to start me on dialysis soon as I will be able to handle stronger Chemo. To be honest I feel surprising well. Its just my wife and kids who cant handle it and are devastated..simply cant except. that the hardest bit to bear..

was supposed to be in hospital all of next week to have a tumor removed this now postponed to se how I react to chemo first, luckily I sold the van recently so that's out of the way...

Where there is life there is hope.. So say a prayer for me funsters

listen to the song its genius....and be aware of the sunshine folks its a killer! My daughter says this forum my version of facebook...I think she is right!lol

Good luck with the treatment, sure it will go well you must be here for the forseeable, to keep that errant ITB on the straight and narrow and edumicate people on the stunning value of direct import German motorhomes!

It snowed up the mountain at Struthof today....luckily it had melted off the road for the trip down the mountain.

[gus-lopez]

Yes all the best Eddie & I am sure that you will come out the other side. All the best with the treatment.

 

[Judge Mental]

Thanks everyone unfortunatelly melenoma is very hard to beat and really terminal a matter of time. All depending how I respond to chemo etc...unluckily my tumor does not have the Brack gene which 50% of people have and can be targeted with certain combinations of drugs and has spread to lungs and bone but not badly yet. It's strange how well I feel and I'm in very good humour. And that line in Prince song sign of the times " a man ain't truly happy till his truly dying" kinda makes sense to me in a strange way to be honest! As you can plan your end hopefully giving family and loved ones time to adjust.....

I am a fighter and trying everything.
Ordered an expensive juicer and trying an organic fruit/veg regime as it's supposed to fight cancer? Cancer feeds off your protein and if no protein destroys your muscle. Once I get stabablised on dialaysis I will be able to have stronger combinations of chemo.

So....we live in hope guys!

Oh Judge so sorry to read this, kind of knew you were poorly but was hoping treatment would work, will say a prayer for some good results for you.

Bless you Bill!

@campa cola who is ITB you have lost me !lol

@ianthebuilder was so shocked when he heard, wanted to come straight round and look after me...he has a heart of gold that lad
So get him some work guys I had some work on house we wanted to buy in Worthing. That move now cancelled as can't move wife down there away from friends and family. This does my head in! as so much money tied up in our London house I wanted to get my hands on

 

[Fenman]

@Anthea M put my feelings exactly into words but I did not think giving it a like was quite right.
You have my sincere hopes for the best outcome possible.
If positive vibes are going to do any good then there's lots of them coming your way.

 

[DavidG58]

Hang in there JM, there are a few on here I have told myself I would like to have a one to one with, you're right up there

Suddenly dodgy headlight lights, missing o rings, imported A frames , don't seem as important

So, a central London meet it might need to be, not too sure how we get round the LEZ etc

Keep fighting it

I hope that everything will be well with you all. Money seems so important, until a situation like yours arises. Then you realise what is really important in life - the love and support of the people around you.
