The "R U OK ?" Thread

Well, I spent 10 hours at the hospital yesterday, for blood tests and a transfusion. Got a good sleep last night, and feel great today.

Back to hospital tomorrow, for a PET (CT) scan to see if I've had any luck on the Hodgkin's battle. See the Haematologist next week for the results. Hopefully no more Chemo.

Still a way to go with the Leukemia battle. Feel like I'm winning at the moment.

Your doing great guess its a lot harder battle than mine and all you can do is put faith in your doctors and fight from your end until i have to go through something like you are i'll probably never understand how hard your struggle is but we are all thinking of you i guarantee that.

God rest her soul brother.

My trick when I lost my dad is when things remind us of them, remember 2 or 3 good or funny things about them.

After a while you end up just remembering nothing but the good and fun times.

God give you strength to carry on my bro, your wife is in heaven keeping your seat warm for you one day WAY down the track.

Thanks mate. We all have struggles at different times. I don't underestimate yours by any means. It sounds tough. I really wish you all the very best.

My wife has many health issues, she is still recovering from multiple strokes in 2021 that really threw a spanner in the works.

Mate, thank you so much for sharing that. I could never imagine your pain, and tbh my eyes are foggy, trying to finish this post.

I pray I'll have the strength of someone like you, should the worst ever eventuate. Sometimes the only thing ever helps, is knowing that you're helping.

Grief is the price we pay for love…and your love for your wife is unquestionably as strong as love can be..and you can rest assure she knew this..Take care

Just want to add you guys are stronger than you know. Takes a real man to talk openly.

God bless you both and all my prayers and strength to you.

You still being here, replying to me, does something that I cannot put into words. Another voice in the darkness, however pained, however faint, is everything when it all feels like nothing.. Let's me know I'm not alone, as silly as it sounds.

All here for each other when someone needs to reach out.

Absolutely fucking fried , don't feel like in my own body ,numb haven't slept in fucking days.
Keep breaking down over nothing.
Going to the beach to ground myself with a swim .then calling a head mechanic

How go your battles, Soldiers?

Hope everyone is OK.

Mentally, physically or both fried bro? You're not overworking yourself again?

This was her the first week she decided she wanted to live with me not just beautiful outside but inside as well

Alex Rocco Campillo has cerebral palsy..meaning he has 76% disability down the left side of his body..he has just completed a full marathon..that’s 42km..and has such become the first person with such extensive disability to do so..

Many of you guys inspire me to be a better person..and to appreciate how important the little things are..and help me stay in the fight by witnessing your spirit and tenacity in the face of adversity.. So too does people like Campiillo..I’m sure if he followed footy he’d be a Bulldog..because you guys are the best!

Sometimes easier said than done but we still have to pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, tell life to go fuck itself and keep marching.
