Never met you Biff but you seem my type of guy. Stay positive and I'm sure you will beat it.

Good luck fellah, keep busy and plan for the future, I'm sure you will be looking back at this before long as just another dip; and after a dip there's always a peak

Ok a few of you have been badgering me lately so here goes
I've finished my treatment but too early for any answers. The treatment is brutal and I have been left with no immune system. No voice no hearing and no way of eating or drinking other than through a tube that's up my nose and down into my stomach.
Things I'm told will now start getting better and I believe that I am.
Being impatient doesn't help for any use of energy results in being violently ill and coughing up all kinds of stuff.
I can take this chance to thanks you guys for your support and help in some cases and offers of all sorts of things. Thank you
I can see light at the end of the tunnel I only hope it isn't some bugger with a torch

Pleased to hear that things are going the right way - make the most of the attention whilst it's on offer, once you're well again it'll be back to looking after your self..............

Biff

Really glad to see you’re still fighting and haven’t lost your sense of humour, although I’m sure you’ve felt like you have at times.

I know you’ve had loads of ‘Anything I can do’ offers, but I’d still like to add mine to the list and will PM you my number again just in case.

Get well soon mate.

Kindest regards

Nasher.
