Cancer

My condolences Lurtzy

[Section_31]

Sorry to hear that my friend.

[Malarkey]

Found out earlier that my great mate of 24 years, Rick, died on Tuesday after battling with stomach cancer for a year aged forty fucking three. How shit.

 

My stressful week and the stressy little wankers I work with and the arrogant queuejumping cunts on the train home are all now firmly put into perspective.

 

Rick Edwards: All the best matey. Here's to the nights out, the drinks and the good times.

 

Horrible news, that.

 

Condolences, mate.

[Malarkey]

After my post last night, I forgot to mention my dad's cousin was told he had 4 weeks to live after a long battle with cancer.

 

He was on his last legs so the family put him in a hospice to live out the rest of his days.

 

He died just after 6am. He was 46. My Nan went out to Australia to see him before he left us.

 

I'll be honest, I didn't see him much. He only came home from Australia every so often. I wish I would have made more of an effort now as he was a good man from what I heard about him and the time I met him.

 

Cancer is a cunt.

[Guest davelfc]

My thoughts go out to anyone who has a family member, friend with cancer or who has lost anyone to that.

 

Malarkey, 46 is no age to die that really sad.

 

While cancer treatment has and still is improving a cure or at least something to contain it cannot come quickly enough.

Condolences to you both.

Same; I've lost a few myself and it's a fucking horrible twat of a disease.

[TheBitch]

Fella I know who's plumbed and plastered two full houses for me has had his treatment stopped. He's late fifties and is really my uncles mate, but I class him as a mate of mine too, always have a beer with him in the pub and he even used to pop round when he was passing, just for a chat.

 

Went to see him at home last week, the guy used to be a real big fella, strong as an ox.

He's now reduced to a frail old man, struggling to breathe, coughing up shit and can't talk without losing his breath. Fucking galling to see.

 

I fucking hate cancer. It really is a cunt.

[loadsoftrophies]

Ah shit lads, sorry to hear about your news. Bastard of a disease.

[lifetime fan]

The bird has been diagnosed with bowel cancer.

[Pony Princess]

The bird has been diagnosed with bowel cancer.

 

Really sorry to hear that mate. Whats the prognosis?

[Ted]

Fuck sake, man. All the best to you both. Horrible bastard of a disease.

[Sugar Ape]

The bird has been diagnosed with bowel cancer.

 

Really sad news that LF. Hope it all works out ok for you mate.

[lifetime fan]

Really sorry to hear that mate. Whats the prognosis?

 

 

Not sure yet mate.

 

She'll be seen again within 14 days for MRI and CT scans to see if the cancer has spread and how developed it is.

 

Looking like ops and radiotherapy but they're hoping chemo might not be neccessary.

 

She's 33.

[Redder Lurtz]

Jesus LF that's shit. Is it operable?

 

Edit: Just seen your reply to CL. Keeping everything crossed for you and her.

We're not sure yet Lurtz, she's been unwell since last christmas so our fears are...well you can imagine.

 

We've been given shit loads of information to read and will find out more after the scans.

[RedKnight]

Damn. That's incredibly tough news.

[Strontium]

Fucking hell, that's awful. I hope they've got to it in time.

[Section_31]

Don't know what to say brother, nothing we can say really that'll make you feel much better. For what it's worth I know a lot of people who've had it and have beaten it, one who is doing so now actually and who is twice her age. Best wishes to you both.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Sorry to hear that news, but they'll whip the fucker out sooner than blink. You can cut the bowel pretty nicely. Fingers crossed, but chin up. Both of you.

[Strontium]

My girlfriend's grandparents and great aunt on her mother's side have all had bowel cancer in the last 20 years, and they're still around and in their 80s/90s. If they get to it early enough the prognosis is very good.

[Guest ShoePiss]

Hope you're both getting the help you need and that she's able to make a full recovery.

Depends on how aggressive it is, unfortunately my family carries the dreaded brca gene so most females in our family don't get much past 50, I'm quite the expert when it comes to the big C for obvious reasons, obviously LF'S girl doesn't fit into this nightmare scenario so fingers crossed she will be ok but a lot does depend on the grading, unwell since Christmas LF? why have they not picked up on this? Best of luck to you mate sincerely.

She's had a variety of symptoms since christmas but they've been put down to all manner of different things, the latest being celiac.

 

Apparently 33 is very young for bowel cancer so as well as having to tell her brother she has cancer, she's had to tell him the specialist want's to check him out too as she believes it may be genetic.

They should have got there sooner than this though mate, must be maddening. Good luck.
