verreauxi Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Brief one but a couple more positives today. Feeding tube that I've had in my stomach for six months because I couldn't eat properly was taken out (eating still a major chore rather than a pleasure but getting better); and the MRI scan I had last week came back clear . Still not out of the woods but on the right track. Those are big positives Mike. Forward with strength my friend! MikeO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted September 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Thanks guys . Had so much help from these people over the last year but they need to raise around £870,000 a year to keep up what they're doing so all helps. They're so desperate they actually included me in a fund raising photoshoot this morning . I won't trouble you with the resulting pic .

rubecula Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 Sorry to hijack the thread but just a quick one.... My next op is scheduled for 18th of this month. Hopefully I will be around by using my laptop. If not I will be back ASAP. If I am not back by the end of October.......... Well lets not go there just now. I expect to be fine. It is only pencilled in just now depending on the results of tests I took yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're not back by the end of October I'll be expecting an upturn in form from the Blues because you'll have had a word with the Supreme Being and told him to get his priorities sorted !

Shukes Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Just only read through this guy's. So much respect for you guys in having to deal with this. Something that is very close to me at the moment and I know how tough it is and how brave you need to be. To see you guys being so positive is a mark of character and an inspiration to others who are suffering. Massive respect to you both and my prayers are with you.

rubecula Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Hey thanks lads Bit of bad news .... Had a phone call today while I was in the office. Hospital has lost my tests and needs me back before they can arrange my surgery So I am going there tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Ahh that's rubbish mate, how can they lose results. Hope it goes well for you and we will all be thinking of you mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Well results are in and I am away for my op on Thursday the 18th. Sadly I have to be there for 07:30 in the morning, so this is the last you will see of me before then. No idea when I will be back, so keep the place tidy, the drinks cabinet filled for when I get back. Remember to voice your opinion honestly and that everyone has one. No not ever feel offended by someone who thinks differently to you. Hope to see you soon (or even sooner if my laptop works in the ward) Bye for now folks.

MikeO Posted September 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 A wise man once said, "never listen to Rubes because he talks bollocks" but I don't agree with him. Occasionally you don't (though you do mostly to be fair). Look forward to having you back soon. COYR! Matt and rubecula 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
