Congrats to those in remission.
I got the all clear June 2020 after having Hodgkin's Lymphoma discovered March 2020 (after 3 months of bouncing around hospitals having tests/scans/biopsies).
I was also lucky and had a pretty easy ride getting better (other than puking during/after chemo a few times). Not the ideal time to have zero immune system either, just as COVID became an issue.
It does make each fishing trip feel like a bonus/extra one now so I appreciate things more

Thanks mate.
The fortunate thing is I had no side effects from it or the treatment. Worked full time, gym, overnights even on school nights. Mentally very hard at times, effing hard tbh. I must be one of the lucky ones. Could write a book on the experience but I won’t but I need to raise awareness of skin cancers that spread to other areas of the body. ( in my case the liver).
All I can say is be very aware and careful when out fishing. I always keep out of the sun and it still got me. Over 100 hospital trips over 3 years is not what I had ever thought I would experience tbh. It’s one club I never thought I would be in.
Definitely worth getting anything suspicious checked out. Never leave it.

I actually got to fish Horshoe, only 2 nights, but it's somewhere I've always wanted to fish.
Travelled over with by best mate which was a bonus.
Snapped my 2 ECU alarm cases too....ffs!

Got married again to a lovely lass after losing my wife two years ago to cancer
Daughter decided she's not so keen as a teen to come fishing with her old man
Bought 4 new rods and haven't used any of them yet...

Thats great to hear mate, you too Gooner, keep up the fight 
I got the all clear late Jan, chemo last April, cell counts as of 2 weeks ago mean I can go fishing again.
Started the fight with another very slow grower tho, how's your luck, I'll try and forget about that until the check ups!
Edit,..and more importantly, 17th March 2024 was my 20 year forum anniversary

Wife cheated.
Need to get a divorce.
Eating disorder has ruined me & I've lost a scary amount of weight
Caught 2 tench with my daughter.
Bagged my target carp from a very tricky venue.
Catching my target so quickly has left me feeling a bit lost.
Tench and carp were caught on a bait of my own making which made it more special.
Oh started back at the gym as well
It's been fun
