    Bloody hell Eddie, Compared to how you were in August/September, hardly able to move, you've made huge strides. One day at a time (sweet Jesus) as Lena sung. You've had a bit of 'Flu, I believe treatments can lower the immune system a little, so after a bit of 'Flu in the grim weather, you're bound to feel a bit of an onion. Stay positive.

    Perfectly normal to feel like you do especially if you’ve not been feeling well… add to that the crappy weather on Saturday and it’s no surprise to find you doubting yourself.
    But Eddie, this should be a wake up call for you to make that Thailand trip as comfortable as possible… upgrade your flight ( sod the expense ) , book into the most comfortable hotel that can accommodate your condition, set up a mobility scooter for when you’re there…splash your money on YOU and make this trip something to remember.

    Does "I've stopped physically progressing" mean he thought everything was just going to get better on its own without putting any effort into physiotherapy? It can't possibly come as a surprise that one's mobility slows down when their daily routine is laying in bed watching Netflix (no, actually Amazon because it is better and cheaper), all day aside from a routine visit to the pub.

    Eddy go now. I'm no Thailand expert. Last time I was there was 17 years ago for work. But given this video I say, why don't you just fly to Thailand in December, next week. Do your 30 days. Do a visa run from Pattaya, so you can spend 2 months there, instead of one. I understand the visa run could be a little tough (again I'm no expert), but you can hire a private driver to do it with, to alleviate the journey, I suppose. And when In Thailand you can get yourself a wheelchair, so you can move around without the worry of falling. And when you want to walk you can use the wheelchair as a "walker". Just a suggestion.

    Eddy there have been many incidents of tainted alcohol in Thailand its happened in the last 12 months in Bangkok. It's extremely unlikely that these people in Laos were given something with industrial methanol in it. It's much more likely that they had counterfeit spirits made by home distilling. If you make your own alcohol you always have to drain off the first part of the brew because it contains methanol. If some backyarder in Laos didn't know this or didn't care then these deaths are the result. Like I said it's happened in Thailand before many times and in Bali. Thats why they always used to tell people to never by those buckets of drinks in Thailand.

    It's normal to have anxiety and some depression especially after your recent surgery and getting over the flu. The medical experts hit you with percentages of survival. That's in the 1% of the worst case scenario. I have stage 4 cancer. Melanoma on the brain ( 2 places) and in the lung. The brain cancer keeps coming back after 2 surgeries. Maxed out radiotherapy and 2 years of immunotherapy. All the cancers are now inactive cancers just sitting there. My sister-in-law has the exact same cancer glioblastoma that you have Eddy. Yes it's deadly just like melanoma and glioblastoma. Both my sister-in-law and myself were first diagnosed about 7 years ago and now still living life okay. You can still live for many years yet. Get out there and enjoy Thailand and live your life. What you must do is to eat healthy foods and importantly walk most days and see a physio for your mobility challenges. You have shown great courage through your recent past. Take it from me another cancer survivor you are far from done Eddy. Get to Thailand and enjoy your life just like previous times. Good luck !

    Was it a rain or a snow storm in England Eddy? I am in Canada, we still have rain, soon to turn to snow. We all would love to get out to somewhere warm. I had a plane ticket booked to Mexico for next week and am not going to be on that plane unfortunately, due to many reasons. You have your ticket booked Eddy so there is still hope, hang onto that thought and chin up my friend.

    Just hearing the news must have been incredibly hard on you Ed, that alone is bound to have knocked you for six. You must do what you feel is right. None of the people offering you advice to hop on a flight have been given your diagnosis and prognosis. Everyone and his grandma likes to imagine that they would quick as you can run through the bucketlist, but in your situation, few if any do.
    Once over the flu and the shock of more bad news has gone, you may hopefully feel much better but it is not for others to tell you how to feel or what to do. I have always stuck to the mantra - You need to walk a mile in the other mans shoes before you give advice.
    Best Wishes and Very Best of Luck Ed, take care.

      Good comment! If these people felt as crap as weak as Ed does right now or felt how hard and exhausting Amsterdam was for him, they wouldn't be demanding that he gets on a 13 hour flight whilst unwell and uninsured! There's no Fantasyland for him gets there, just misery until his health and mobility improves.

    Hey Eddie. I reckon ‘man flu’ alone is enough to make a man feel flat. It’s expected mate to have good days and bad days given the diagnosis. Regardless of the treatments, the prognosis, etc, I have every confidence that once you’re in Thailand, you will definitely pick up psychologically and feel better despite this. You are always in my thoughts my friend. Thanks for sharing. 🙏

  • @keepingitreal618

    Eddy the way you are feeling is to be expected. Some fear, feeling down it helps to vent. Trust your Drs you are not their first patient, having a scan is pointless at this stage. You also have flu to top it off. Feeling happy and positive all the time is not normal. You will feel better soon. ❤

      Cannot go in direct sunlight when you got cancer. You need to protect yourself from direct sunlight. Especially when a lot of drugs react to direct sunlight. It would be better to say the warm climate makes you feel better
