My boy Jack (almost 7) has a best friend called Taylor they are always staying round eachothers houses, they play in the same footy team etc etc. Anyway Taylors dad (paul) i get on really well with, we've become good mates since our lads have become best mates and he is a really really top bloke who would do anything for you, we go round there for barbies etc. now he lost his mum to cancer in May...he was a pretty broken bloke, his kids also loved their nan and were rightly devastated too. The kids are now starting to get over it.
Anyway..
Paul has had bad pains in his stomach since just after his mum passed away. He's had loads of tests done and they didn't know what was wrong with him, we all assumed it was inflammatory bowel disease as we know someone with colitis and they have the same symptoms. So he's still in pain and on pain killers and this morning he got the results of some more test he had done and guess what?...yep you got it...that cunt of a disease, the one that shows no mercy, doesn't care who it picks, has reared its ugly head again and he has cancer. Not sure about any other details yet as rightly so needs time to sink in only just found this out this morning but either way...its pretty damn sad.
Kids have only just got over losing their nan to the big C. Obviously kids will be shielded from the news until the time is right but they know something is up, especially the 10 year old girl who is exceptionally bright and is on the gifted register.
This fucking disease pisses me off, not only is he a good mate of mine, he's 2 years older than me (37)...got two lovely kids and is a top bloke. Why doesn't this fucking thing strike down people like Gary Glitter, Roy Whiting and countless other fucking nonce cunts and shit kickers. NO it picks kids and good people.
People who choose to believe in god (i'm not knocking you by the way...thats your choice) how the hell do you maintain faith when shit like this happens.
Anyway sorry for rant guys just very pissed off at the mo.
I hope they find a miracle cure for this shit soon.
