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.

Please bro, don't ever think your a burden on me or anyone else.

I'm still breathing bro, in pain, but breathing and out of hospital so I thank God for that.

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! :blush:
My wife has cerebral palsy and she achieved greatness too. One time a security guard tried to stop us from entering a pub. He said, "sorry love you're walking funny, you've obviously had too much to drink"

Without skipping a beat she said, "I've got a disability you arsehole!"

The bloke was so embarrassed, for the rest of the night he refused to kick us out even after I got totally hammered and smashed about 20 glasses trying to do the Michael Jackson spin and moonwalk.

This was the one thread where some empathy and kindness to fellow Kennellers was expressed.

Keep your smartie jokes, square ups, meanness out.

Let's get back to the original sentiment of the thread heading.

Yeah I agree 100% and I apologise for biting back.

Now the problem is gone, I hope everyone is doing as best as they can.

Everyone has already pointed it out but I will reiterate it anyway. This thread is not for petty squabbles. It doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong. If you want to argue, take it elsewhere.

2 years back I had my lenses in my eyes replaced. Same procedure for those who have cataracts.
Since December my vision has been so cloudy and as I have glaucoma it is not unusual to have your vision slowly deteriorate
But I am hoping to get some relief tomorrow, there is a clear membrane that needs removing, the procedure is called Posterior Capsulotomy (Laser after Cataract Surgery).

It only takes a few minutes to clean each lens, so anyone who has had lens replacement surgery and you are having cloudy vision go and see your eye specialist.

My eyes should be ok for the weekend to see the Doggies get there 3rd win!
