Wishing you all a successful journey down the road to recovery. As others have said this is treatable. Living in Canada I cannot offer any practical help but I am very , very hopeful and am thrilled that so many of the PH clan have stepped forward to do what they can to make things a bit easier. I wish you the very best for 2018.

Thanks guys.

It has been an epic day, just the four of us, with the dog and tortoise. No visitors and no family to cater for, as we normally do. Mrs is an epic cook and often is left stressing...but today was just laid back and calm. The kids are now playing Operation, me and Rs drinking a rather large glass of Port.

Even though we have been to stress levels I never thought were possible, this has been one of the best Christmas days ever. We even had traditional turkey for dinner.

Great day!

Gutted to read on here about Jack, quite the coincidence really as I had been mooching about PH and had just been reading some of your posts elsewhere when the penny dropped who you are. ( you can guess which thread! )

My best mate had the same as Jack when we were in our late teens, I was always amazed at how calm he was about it whilst the rest of us seemed to be doing all the worrying. He still plays it down to this day.

Anyway Shippers, wishing you, Jack and the family all the best and if you need anything just shout.

Oh, and if it's any help, I still have this and the CSL so the next time you're 'home' and Jack wants to blow some cobwebs away let me know smile

Thank you. It's been sitting at Ascot for a month but I just haven't had time to get down and see it. A new car is always nice but not the most important thing in the grand scheme of things.

What part of the country are you in Matt?

In a very wet and windy Gosport, so we are reasonably close to Southampton.

Treatment 2 tomorrow.... had the clinic appt this afternoon. All good... the consultant was encouraged by the amount his “lump” has gone down. (The lads lump, I don’t know if the consultant has a lump)!

Dr Davies. He seems to be a bit of a big fish with this type of cancer. He is very reassuring in his manner, talks direct to Jack and speaks a very simple language.

Top bloke.
