HippY Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Uni so far so good! At 3rd day so far I spent 6x as much on drinks as on food, but my food bills are fairly low, like £5 per day Also, I tried cooking today, £3 bag of mixed seafood, 37p garlic bread, some cheese and olives with jalapeno, and it turned out to be amazing, and surprisingly large portion! Cannot wait the course to start though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Rainbird Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 This time last year my grandmother was diagnosed as being around 25% old and 75% cancer. There were half a dozen times that they didn't think she'd make it through the night, and she underwent so much horribly intrusive surgery that they pretty much removed half her insides, without the good grace to upgrade her internals to adamantium/similar, and it was all a complete nightmare. Shes been unable to use her hands properly for 12 months and the chemo has been so brutal that it nearly ended her, resulting in them cutting it down to ~15% of the normal dose, evidently not ideal and we were told that as a result it probably wouldn't have a massive effect.Today she saw the consultant and was given the all clear. None of us were expecting it at all, given how harsh things have been. Genuinely stunned and so amazed by it all. So so happy! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chemo is unbearable to watch, my dad's lost loads of uses of his hands but he's getting by. Really really pleased for you mate, fantastic news. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Why not do both @Tom Booth?Great news @Luke Rainbird – I completely missed that post while TF was down, and I imagine quite a few others did too. The big C is getting smaller and smaller, and it's great to hear more success stories. My father in law went through it all the year before last and came through the other side too, so I can imagine a little of the relief you're feeling! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Thanks gents . As you say, Tom, it's heartbreaking to watch someone go through it, watching it destroying the person you have known your whole life, but stick with them and do everything you can to get them through it. I know I'm incredibly lucky that she's pulled through so well despite there being times it wasn't looking likely, but hopefully you'll get some good news soon too. Fingers crossed for you and if you ever want to chat/vent/rant about things then you know where to find me :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadManMike Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Yeah I missed that post too, it didn't show as unread when the forum came back up.That is awesome news man, sounds like a lottery win chance of success, so that's epic!The older generation are made of stronger stuff, that's for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jolfa Posted September 26, 2015 Report Share Posted September 26, 2015 Today at work (bike shop) there was a single speed bike chucked in the bin because the customer wasn't willing to spend the cost of repairs on it, so I have a new bike. So far I've made one good brake out of two shagged ones, straightened the wheels and greased the hubs, just needs a new tube and I'm good to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
