Thank you to all here who have shown concern. What Michael has told you is pretty much true even if MC can be somewhat melodramatic.Dear ALL HERE,
I have just spoken again with Alan/Alwight whose secrets he has shared with me for months now. He is going to die within a couple or few months from Cancer. He has tried Surgery and Chemotherapy, all to no avail. He didn't want you guys to feel bummed for a long time and so he has kept this from you for a while now. Now you know why he has not posted for so long. He swore me to secrecy. I didn't have a choice. Is there something we could do to make him feel better. I couldn't write all of this in the Chatbox. So I am giving you the Page No. and the Post No. I am doing the best I can with this touchy subject. He needs to know that we love him and care about him.
Thanks Tons To All Of You!!
Michael
I apparently now have an incurable cancer rather than the cancer I thought was removed and that the chemotherapy would hopefully finish off.
I was very optimistic having completed 5 of the planned 8 chemo treatments and for some reason I wasn't expecting to see it return while doing the very thing I thought would get rid of any that remained. The sudden unexpected loss of hope has really me hit hard and tbh also my faith in medical science. My remaining time depends on several things but I am told should be measured in months.
My style of posting here always required a certain amount of background humour and levity which I really don't have any more, so my future posting may be very limited, unless someone here can summon up a miracle of course.
I don't believe as MC does that even in America doctors will typically offer treatments to feather their own nests rather than what they believe is best practice. Here in the UK anyway there is no financial advantage for doctors in the public sector to promote bogus treatments.
ToL is a great place but not really for those who have lost their optimism for living life. So I thank you all and will mostly limit any future posting to if I ever regain any.
Alan
