    Dude is total atheist and scientist. The diagnosis turned out to be wrong (tumour was massive and removed a few years later) but he did not lose his marbles or retreat into superstition. Hope everyone getting news like this can have the same reaction.

    Just heard he has been "cured" www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-29727632 What an excuse to do a comeback tour. ;-)

    • @squamish4244
      @squamish4244 10 років тому

      Yes, an excuse, I'm sure it had nothing to do with the groundbreaking surgery that he underwent after he found out his cancer was less aggressive than previously thought. It's no secret that cancer survival rates are improving all the time but evidently for you it was a bizarre plot to increase his popularity.

    • @monarchjock
      @monarchjock 10 років тому

      valinor100 Did you see the wink at the end of my comment valinor ? For your information I know all about cancer and the current survival rates. I'll let you work out how.

    • @squamish4244
      @squamish4244 10 років тому

      monarchjock No, I missed the wink. It's easy to miss, considering that on UA-cam, unfortunately, people leave comments like this all the time only intended to be assholes, and I thought it wasn't appropriate concerning a person's survival of cancer. My apologies.

    • @monarchjock
      @monarchjock 10 років тому

      valinor100 I'm obviously a fan of Wilko. I would never be an asshole concerning him. I'm sure it would be the kind of humour he would appreciate. All sorted.
