Not great atm I’m afraid. I’m now developing bad gastro problems due to cirrhosis and am finding it hard to eat enough calories. I also have cachexia which is causing muscle wastage and weight loss. I’m finding it very difficult to walk unaided.

I’ll be very surprised if I see the year out tbh, but I’m at the point now where I don’t really care now. Whatever happens, happens. But I’m still at home with family and all my creature comforts, so in general my mood is still good and the hospital have promised me they will do everything they can to allow me to stay at home.

I've just got to get on with it really, nothing can be changed, what’s done is done.

Thanks for asking mate, all the best to you.

That's fair enough. I remember when a good friend of mine was terminally ill and I asked him if he had an Eve account and could I have his stuff. He said he didn't but he'd get one if there would be anything on it that might be useful.

So do you have an Eve account? Can I have your stuff? :cry:

So sorry to read this. Sounds horrendous. Especially to a recognisable name on here.


Wishing you all the best. And reading many more posts of yours,

Hope people reading this make most of time. It happens to us all and you never know when or how. Time is so precious.

Take care.
 
Never seen this thread, had a good read and gained a ton of respect for your attitude whilst up against it all.
Keep well and I wish the year exceeds your expectations, like you have exceeded others.
 
Take care of yourself Rob and enjoy your time.

Out of curiosity do you have any bucket list items that you'd like to do? Or are you at peace with what you've done?
 
Very sorry to hear mate, just read your last update on your health. It's good that you're still looking up despite the circumstances.

Keep us all posted regardless mate. Take good care of yourself.
 
As above, really sad by the update, although by all accounts you've made it much further than you'd expected from the start of this thread. Your positive attitude must go a long way towards that and it's excellent to see. You'll certainly be missed on the forum.

It's a shame that Arsenal couldn't hold on for you last year! If only you'd passed on when they had an 8 point lead :p
