i as so sorry to hear this, i've lost a few friend's as well as my father to this evil disease, this bring's it all back, my thought's are with you.
A similar situation brought me to bikes, and this forum. There are no words. N.E.R.D No-one ever really dies. Carry your partner with you forever.
Cancer took my mum a good few years back, and a couple of years ago I thought that it would do the same with my wife. Thankfully she is still here to annoy, nag, witter and bark orders at me (although I have developed very acute selective hearing when in her presence/earshot). Nikki, you and you partner have my heartfelt best wishes. Shed tears when you need to and stick two fingers up at the bastard disease on good days and at every other opportunity you possibly can. You have a ready made support system right here. Don't be afraid to use us whenever you feel the need.
You guys are the best. Thank you all so much for the kind words. I can't tell you how appreciated it is. Please, Please for gods sake go to the doctors if you see the slightest little lump anywhere. My partners started as an innocent little lump the size of a pea on the elbow and got bigger and bigger. It then jumped to the kidney. This particular cancer (Merkel Cell Carcinoma) is very aggressive. Radio, chemo and immunotherapy failed to do anything to stop it. The hospital here has been excellent and is the best in the country in terms of treatment and care. The last 2 years have been the most awful in my life. This forum is full of wonderful people. Bless you all XXX
Hi Nikki I’m really sorry to hear your news, it’s a hellish disease that everyones affected by at some time in one way or another, I lost my Father and my sister over 25 years ago due to cancer and my wife lost her father recently, her family had the Marie Curie nurses come in and stay overnight in the latter stages they can be a real help and can offer a much needed break my thoughts are with you both
Nikki, I have no words, but have some semblence of what you're going through, as I lost my Mum, Dad and father in law to cancer. I'm so sorry to hear your bad, sad news.
My mum passed from cancer and every moment is precious - you think you have forever until suddenly you don't. Together stay strong and take joy from life whenever you can, and know that you have all our thoughts and best wishes.
Very sorry to hear your sad news, I am sure that you have the goodwill and wishes of all of us on here
I am sincerely sorry about this. All our thoughts are with you both. A few years back I lost my grandma to cancer and I was totally devastated. She brought me up and stood strong by my side through all my stupidities in life. She was my mother, friend and god. After a while I realised when someone you love becomes a memory....that memory becomes a treasure. Now these days whenever I think of my granny my eyes do get a little moist but a pleasant smile comes to me because that's the beautiful treasure she left behind for me. As I said all our thoughts are with you. But you will need to find your own strength to get through this.....stay strong together and be there for each other. God bless you both
