Hey guys

Thankyou for all the replies, support and advice you're giving me. It's hugely appreciated.

Hey David, thanks. I'm seeing my surgeon tomorrow morning for a checkup. Maybe he'll be able to help point me in the right direction.

Hey Susan, thanks ! I'm all for trying to organise something like a screening or fundraising walk. It may take some time and planning but it's definitely worth pursuing. Thanks for the offer!

Thanks Gabe smile I've recently recieved a heap of armbands and brochures when i ordered a couple of shirts online. So i should be right at this stage, but thankyou !

Hey Karen. It sounds like you're doing great work. I can already tell it's tough work getting the word out, but it's definetly worth the effort. I'll have a look into writing into government, minister of health, etc. Thanks for the advice!

I was actually watching the X factor show. That was post surgery, pre treatment for me from memory. He was very inspiring. I actually watched his video back a few times during my treatment. I didn't realise he was on facebook. I'll try and add him on there. Thankyou !

Again, thanks everyone for the advice. Sorry I couldn't get on here any earlier tonight.

I've been in contact with the ABC page, and i'm going to write up a report they'll post on their website. When i have more details i'll post on here.

Cheers!

Dave
