Hi mate.

Yeah, it sucks doesn't it. Unfortunately, life is cruel and unfair. A horrible life lesson that my family and I have to accept.

Glad you saw the post though dude, you're another one who I have always had good interactions with.

I'm still here though, functioning the best I can.

Definitely! We had some good times! Hanging out here and at that Monsterplace (forgot it's name), you helping with sigs and stuff. You're definitely one of the good guys.

Life really can be cruel indeed.

Looking at your post about short term goals I hope you can celebrate Christmas to the fullest with the ones you love. And then on to your birthday in March!

I really hope we'll have you with us here for a long time to come.

I've made so many sigs on this forum. Worth checking out my started threads list if anyone is interested. Had so many good times just making them for everyone.

We willl see bud, could be here for an extended period however I might not be. Short term goals only these days.

Hi all.

For those that know me, you may have noticed my lack of activity of the past few months.

Unfortunately, at the start of 2024, I received the devastating news that I have terminal stage 4 bowel cancer (age 36). It's been an awful year, however after 20 cycles of chemotherapy and a major colon resection (I now have a stoma), I'm still fighting. Given my diagnosis it's almost a miracle I'm still here now.

Anyway, cancer aside, I just wanted to reach out to you guys on here. Initially I was happy to just fade away and no longer post here - other things become priority. However, given the good times I've had here since 2010 and the good people I've connected with, I just wanted to let people know of my situation.

This forum was a key part of my mid-20s and early 30s. So many good times!

Hope you all have a good Christmas and New Year.

Andrew (greygoose).

Oh man goose, I'm sorry about all of your troubles. You're strong, you're fighting and that's all that matters. Sometimes the only thing we can do is persevere. I wish life was easier.

I was the primary caretaker for my mother and was with her up to the end earlier in the year. It just seems like 2024 was selected to be a horrible year in general.

I was always happy to see you around here and reading your posts. I still have a few of the sigs you made for me back from years back.

You take care of yourself, bud.

Sorry for your loss mate.

That's it really, persevere and survive day by day.

Appreciate you replying bud, lots of good people still around these parts.
