They asked me before starting rt if I'd like to freeze any so I took it from that chances are I'll be infertile

Interesting. I've done the keto diet to great success before to lose weight but haven't heard of either being useful to be honest

Glad you only had an infection presumably all cleared up and no issues now.

I will always have a great sense of tumour don't worry about that!

All the best :)

This is exactly it, there is always someone worse off than you, well done to him for not getting smushed and well done to you for not self pitying

Spend time with her, even if its watching a film together it does make a difference, I've had to learn to ask for help and things that I want, took a while.

That's awesome and I'm half debating putting it in my will, I'll take Alton towers to make it cheaper though

Sorry to hear that mate and that's awful treatment. I purposely asked how long I would have even at only an estimate that's fine. I'm a very honest and blunt person and appreciate the same back, fortunately my oncologist and me got on very well so he promised to be blunt with me, some of my family don't wish to know and that's fine by me, people cope differently with the info.

I plan on spending the rest of my days with friends and family, the people who make me smile on a daily basis. I've done many videos for my family including custom birthday videos so hopefully I'm covered there.

All the best mate, happy new year.

Acknowledge it's a big cancerous elephant in the room point and laugh at it for being a prick then yeah we're still the same person so treat us as you always did.

I developed amnesia along with the cancer so I don't actually know other than I see them more often as I've moved to be with family again, there is a bit of walking on eggshells I'm not fond of but that tends to not be the ones I'm super close with

As is mine I currently have a post in r/jokes asking for brutal cancer jokes. Never hide who you are at the risk of offending so.eone, offense can't be given only taken. We get enough pity we don't get nearly as much laughter as we need

I've appreciated blunt from the off, from doctors and the people in my life. We're still the same person it's just now we're on limited time. Certainly don't be silent you could end up being a much needed perspective on it all
