The treatments for many cancers today are very good and improving all the time.

I am a survivor of cancer myself. The treatment can be very harsh for some. I never really felt anything of the cancer, but the treatment affected me badly. If you research you will find many foods etc that can be introduced into his diet. That will help with detox and give the body a better stronger fight against the cancer. If he smokes, he must stop. Doesn't mean that the actual smoking is the cause, but again his body will put up a better fight.

If you are able to be with him through this, during his treatment I'd advise that he has very few visitors, as his immune system will be low. Keep a careful eye on his temperature, it will tell you if he needs to return to hospital, but they will advise on that.

I wish him a successful recovery, and hope for you both that all will be well.

God bless
Encouraging words indeed, from one of our most respected members who, as a cancer survivor, has defied the odds, gone on to marry his Filipina sweetheart and carve out a new life for them both in her homeland.

Inday ... to filipino/uk ... we hope you'll be as truly inspired by our good friend's message of support as we all are! Please therefore be assured of our very best wishes as your fiance begins his treatment.


Meanwhile, I should be most grateful if one (or more) of my fellow members could award much~deserved reputation to Stewart (Imagine) for his encouragement.

... Reason I'm asking is because a little box has popped up reminding me I "must spread Reputation around before giving it to Imagine again".
