All the best ROB,
wishing you a rapid recovery!

 

Great to hear you have good people around you...........

I like your spirit & get better soon

 

Hey, Rob - make a mental note to revisit this thread 5 years from now -

Laughter remains the best medicine, so, make sure you laugh now, rather than waiting 5 years to do that. Deal?

In the meantime, do share your newfound knowledge with us - after all, we're 100% behind you.

 

Sorry to hear your news Rob. I hope you can knock it for a six.

I needed to google for info on this - here's a link with some info for others to check it out.

thanks Lambo boy,what do I do on tuesday last week but Goggle and get the story that it is a 3/6 month life term"Blastic mantle cell" My Doc tells me look at the case a 82yo with xs issues and most of the other cases are far older people then I.Bloody internet IMO stay of the search unit and put trust in the official sites or those whom know.Thnkyou Mark for the link as it says"the agressive ones can be treated" regards Rob Bailey."Boxer Boy"

 

so sorry to hear mate. Hope all goes well

 

Hit it with all your might and then some RB, you have a lot of people here behind you.

As I said before you have the best treatment at your fingertips in Melb, let the good doc do his thing

 

I'm not too concerned. Only the good die young.

 

+1
In fact, I think your doc has misdiagnosed and can't spell either. It's spelt nymphomania which is defined as the strong desire to bed lucivious Kew milfs....and you don't have to be a rocket scientist to know what the cure is

 

Keep strong champ, you can do it!

 

Get better soon. Keep the spirit up.

 

THOUGHTS WITH YOU!!!

 

Hey I'm stilling coming up in November.

 

Gunna keep this thread pumping along,I ain't the only one whom is ill so lets make this a thread for ALL of us.A positive thread.OOOh yes the Boxer is NOT for sale,that is step 1 to being positive!

 

Rob, this is scary stuff and for all our sakes I hope and pray you are cleared of this insidious disease as the world is a poorer place without the nutters .

You've got my number , just call anytime you need a chat ...... this sort of stuff puts a lot of other things in life into perspective, I need you to top the time you wiped the witches hats out on the 3Peaks Rally and had us all laughing mate so hang in there dude

 

Good. I'll be waiting. Hope the nurse looking after you is fkn hot!

 

So there is an upside to all of this.



Keep in good spirits my friend.

 

Rob,
thoughts are with you, after the crap I've been thru of late pales to insignificance when i hear about your challenges,

i will be back in melb for the GF, i wanna make sure that i can see you and hopefully PP can get out of bed or his GT4 to come along as well.

Cheers,

BG

 

that'd be good

 

Fight the Good fight man!

 

All the best Rob!
