To be honest when I saw the first post about it I though his days were numbered. I had a friend who was fit and healthy. He suddenly started getting head aches which he put up with for about 3 weeks. He went the docs etc and was diagnosed with brain cancer. He was dead within weeks.  I obviously wish him all the best but fear the worse for him. |

I think he needs a miracle to beat this- can't see it, but I hope I'm wrong.

If they'd stopped it when it was testicular only, he'd have had a good chance of overcoming it, but the fact that it's spread to the brain...not good.
I'm not surprised other parts of his body have been affected, but I'm am surprised they noticed it in his brain BEFORE his lungs.
My lady moans that I fiddle with my parts too much- well there's a bloody good reason for me doing that! Hopefully, if a new HAIR grows down there I'll know about it...

It's one reason wives and girlfriends come in useful, Bob Champion's g/f felt his cancer before he did and made him get it checked.

It doesn't sound good at all, reports today say it's in his lungs as well |

This is the exact same cancer that struck Lance Armstrong and he was given a 1% chance of survival. Obviously he came through it and lets hope john can as well.
