The Cancer Thread

Such a difference between that age and now.

There have been such changes when you think about it. My auntie, in her 90s, was asked recently what has changed between when she was growing up and now.

‘Well - everything’.

Again - doesn’t make a fuss about it and just gets on with it. Asks me to look up stuff for her on the Internet.

I remember the time I realised my Dad was in very bad health. We were throwing turf back into the shed and he stopped after about five minutes for a rest. He was 83 at the time and I never saw him take a rest from manual work before in my life. Turns out he had a tumour on his lung and was dead in six months.

My dad is home 3 weeks now from his operation and thankfully he’s over the worst of it now but seeing what this disease does to people is heartbreaking. He was active man all his life and wouldn’t know how to take it easy. It’s incredibly difficult to watch a parent struggle and probably made me realise the hardship I put my parents through at times when I was younger.

Someone took advantage of their situation. Got them to carry coke looks like.

Hit my mam about ten years ago but she got through it. I’m sure your Dad will bounce back

@JonSnow
are you riddled with cancer?

@anon32894817?

The only time a man can be brave is when he is afraid.

You are afraid.
