Update on my uncle.

Some time back some chap posted that he thought a relative had lung cancer.

So this is an update on my uncle.

Last Thursday he went into hospital for checks. They decided to keep him in. He has a lump in his lung the size of a golf ball. They say its been court early so its just a case of cutting it out, and all should be well.

He is a diabetic so it slightly complicates things as they have to balance his sugar levels which are way out.

The doctor operates on both Tuesday and Friday. So its possible Friday is the operation day.

Anyway my 21 year old female cousin was at the hospital on Sunday. She was telling me that it would be her who would be burying me.

I cannot believe she thinks she will outlive me. No way. I was up all last night working out who should live the longest.

I think because I am a vegetarian, and I do not drink, that gives me the edge.

Hope they have caught that early enough and all goes well for him.

Unlikely, your body is just that much more likely to die of boredom ;)

:takethat:

Best of British to your uncle.
( I had an exploratory last thursday too, (not cancer, just an annoyance I'm living with ))

Hope he pulls through.

I'll refrain from telling lung cancer jokes like the ones you were telling about the London bombings.

If you have any, tell me as he will love them.

He loves jokes like that.

His latest is that London Buty shops are doing badly recently as the police are doing Brazilians for free.
