He's my brother. by gilbertwood

He's my brother.

It's a long, long road
From which there is no return...........
He ain't heavy
He's my brother.
You may remember meeting my brother in Aug & Sept - the author in his nightdress and the pruner extraordinaire. Well our lives have been shattered as he has had major surgery and now diagnosed with incurable cancer. His amazing spirits are an inspiration to all of us.

@gigiflower @hermann @shesnapped @ethelperry @kiwiellen @terryliv @bella_ss @cejaanderson Thankyou all so much for caring words. It is uplifting to have so many people show comfort and support when I have not actually met any one. This 365 site is definitely a virtual world of friends. Thanks so much.

*HuGs* Oh Denise, I'm so sorry to hear that. My thoughts are with you in this trying time. Hold on to hope and do all you can. I have a friend who was diagnosed with prostate cancer and given only 10 months (after surgery etc) - 6 years on he's still going strong and will be driving a support vehicle for a group walking around Australia next year to raise funds for breast and prostate cancer research. As for alternative therapy, B17 from apricot kernels have helped another person i know; so could definitely be worthwhile to looking into. :) If you need anything, we're all here for you. xo

@tellefella @darthkitty @teiko @lynnilou @seattlite @jaynspain @pyrrhula @denisefuller @teodw @eyesmile @lindacarol Thanks to each and everyone for your warm and caring comments. Allen certainly is a happy fun loving man (as seen in one of his photos) and his attitude at the moment is so positive too. As quite a few of you have expressed, it's so difficult when it hits your family. We shall remain positive and hope that miracles do occur.
