The Cancer Thread

Iā€™d just like to express my gratitude to each and every one of you lads for the wonderfully moving and empathetic comments over the past few days. Theyā€™re appreciated, trust me.
We watched his little Mass there yesterday, by Christ it was grim viewing.
His father spoke lovingly of his short little life, touching, touching words that heā€™d never in his wildest dreams thought heā€™d have to utter. The poor oulā€™ Priest had to gather himself several times to get through it, he was a beaten man when it finally concluded.
Thereā€™s nothing more to say, heartbreaking.
Treasure your kids lads, Dublin will be bate, eventually, but days like yesterday are days none of us will ever want to experienceā€¦ Thanks again.

Again, my sincerest condolences.

May 2021 be better for your entire family.

My young lad is five. A short life but thousands of memories already. Unthinkableā€¦ May he RIP

The poor man, imagine the torment of preparing those words,
It really doesnā€™t bare imagining, I have a mortal fear of one of my kids developing something but in my wildest dreams/nightmares I always stop myself thinking of the worst case scenario, just have to thank your lucky stars for every day you get

God rest him @anon67715551

Nothing I can say Boxty. Just awful. Look after yourself

A bit of light relief for this thread.

Popped my prostate exam cherry this morning.
All is good in the hood for now.

Iā€™m supposed to get mine done. Is it bad?

Not at all. She was done in a second.

Youā€™re a few years away from that , no?

Disappointing. Youā€™d hope youā€™d get value for your money when sheā€™s at it

Iā€™m getting pestered. My oul fella had it.
