:)okay guys and gals of RR i,ve not been myself for the last few months, many docs visits chasing blind alleys etc etc, I am now diagnosed with kidney and lymph cancer ,there are a few complications and things could go either way , I have been in hospital for the last couple of weeks undergoing tests , the words life shortening and uncureable are on the table and I am going home for a week or so before the kidney and tumour removal operation, this will be followed by kemo amd othere treatments, I have some blood complications and lymph node complications so fingers crossed
now this is not about this , I have cleared my decks of the datsun laurel and sapporo, I have kept an urvan camper van as a target for recovery etc, I will also be listing amounts of tat and jumble to help myselsf through recovery
also I am not in any position to plan the EAST MIDS FRY UP CLUB for a while so if the regulars could take it on themselves to plan when these will happen or maybe a mod could be allowed to update the main title each month [winters were always better turn outs anyway! thought about having the summer ones at papplewick on 1st/3rd weds eves]
I AM going to beat this and still get out and about when poss , RR is going to be a big part of my recovery , its is the only forum I use regularly and I have made some great mates through it , as I am on a curse word slow laptop in hopspital can somebody please put some cool picks of cars/campers and owt else , I will bump the the thread occasionally [sorry ] as I need the drive and support atm
cheers to all , see you soon ,john

I've literally just finished penning this little bit of art for another thread here and then read this post. Seems appropriate to stick the artwork in here with all the other real life campers. ![](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6BWyMQg9WJ8/Tl1XdXCNLiI/AAAAAAAAAeo/AqrUdIeKetE/s1600/201107BosoStandardAtlas.jpg) Might not be the coolest camper in the world, but should put a smile on your face. Go go gadget speedy recovery!

Glad to hear you're optimistic, it helps a lot with something like this. as for pics, no problem, anything to help you fight this some random but eye pleasing (in my opinion) images for your viewing pleasure. ![](http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af200/martin2401/VM_Mitsubishi_Sapporo_custom-480x360-1.jpg) ![](http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af200/martin2401/IMG_4984-1.jpg) ![](http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af200/martin2401/hakosuka-05-1.jpg) ![](http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af200/martin2401/bhp-performance-10-126.jpg) ![](http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af200/martin2401/KGrHqNh8E4ptnKmSCBOQZhgifw0_3-1.jpg) and remember laughter is the best medicine ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Hi Mate I also had both so there is the right treatment out there to beat it, they treated mine the other way round chemo radiotheripy then kidney removal, the garage is a good road to recovery as it keeps you occupied and therefore keeps the dark thoughts away, stay positive as there is always a light at the end of the tunnel, good luck with your treatment stay strong George
