Ive not been around again i know , its been a very bad year .

i’m usually upbeat and like to act the fool but this post wont be funny in the slightest.

Since my last update regarding my cancer scare , although i had the news that i was clear regarding the bladder cancer tests. Unfortunately my consultant had found i have an aortic aneurysm. i can deal with that at the moment , its 3.3cm in size ( should be 2cm) , however i wouldnt be considered for surgery until its in the 5.5cm range due to the risks involved. So with that im placed on a watch list and will have regular scans .

My Mother in law passed away . im not going to go into details on here , i wish to keep this private.

also , as if that wasnt enough , my brother also passed away last month … again , i prefer not to disclose any more details .

There is some better news i can report , my daughter is expecting her first child imminently so im gonna be a grandad or Pa !

hopefully ill now be around more to keep the site updated. im sorry for the downtime .
