Jesus. That’s a heavy cross to bear.

Every family goes through it,I’m lucky I know it mightn’t be too popular to say but I’ve great faith,didn’t have but without it I’d have ended up in the nut house,and thank you, TBH ref youngest he was in Derry I was in Cork,so his mother bore all the hardship,and my kids up there,but God is good

I doubt geography made it any easier. Some families get more than their fair share. Your faith must be strong when you still have it after all that.

Signing in again.

Big, bad cunt of a cancer this time, diagnosed the same day as poor Joe Player passed away.

I’m after spending most of the last 3 months in my bed as sick as s flight to Lourdes, and being treated with a very aggressive course of chemo. Ihave arisen from the dead 4 times and slept through most of Christmas.This week I am at my most well since September. Building up fitness and conditioning now for surgery.

Oncology is incredible; I’d be dead by now if it were not for James’s. Be the best version of yourself you’re able to be every day…
