My brother Chris R.i.P (Updated funeral details)
|
This is a fucker.
Chris has been diagnosed with cancer and has been given weeks to live. Spent a couple of weeks in hospital, and got him home last Friday, after being diagnosed the previous Saturday. I'll be looking after him. I know a few on here know him, so just wanted to make them aware.
Peace and warmth Mike

It's the perennial problem about life that you only learn as you get older.
The country and the world has had a horrible last two years but never say 'oh well, things can't get much worse' because just as you feel you've hit rock bottom there's always another floor below.
Bless you Mike and Chris. Gutting to see fellow Hammers suffering like this.

Terribly sad to hear. You and your brother are in my thoughts.
It'll be a tough few weeks, but you and your brother will stare into the abyss and be strong, brave and together.

Of course words don’t count for much but please make sure he’s getting the required palliative care and you’re all getting the therapeutic support you need.

Thank you everyone. Means a hell of a lot. Yes, it was out of the blue. My brother hasn't been and still isn't in pain thankfully. He'd not been feeling great, but not Ill enough to go to a doc/hospital. Thought he'd just get through it. Goes to hospital as discomfort too much, then bang. He is getting palliative care, and has a care package in place too, and Macmillan are coming round tomorrow.
Peace and warmth Mike

Although I've been through something similar, I still don't know what to say.
It's scarcely adequate, but know you're in people's thoughts.
