Jimmy Stynes Update

[Blues_Man]

All the best to the big fella ..lets hope he can beat that **** of a disease.

 

[mantis]

Really upsetting news. Fight on Jimmy, may the "luck of the Irish" be with you.

 

[bombermick]

Hard to add to whatever is already said, what shattering news. For such a thing to happen to such a fine human being is so sad. There is no justice in the world, but Jimmy you can tough this one out.

Terrible news this is my first post here and i did not want it to be about something much larger than footy itself... i have idolised this great man since i was a young boy with the number 11 on my back not because he was a great footballer but an icon and true champion of life. Best of Luck Jim not a day will go by without me thinking of you..

 

[INSANE]

what the **** is the point in cancer? seriously, is it natures' way of culling numbers? hate it.

he's young and a fighter giving him more chance than most, have faith.

 

[jonoman89]

Hope he pulls through.

 

[Plogs]

Shit news. Seems an A1 human being.

 

[sumavich]

Good luck Jim.
Plenty of people have beaten this before you, you can do the same.

 

[OzBomber]

Holy ****. Feel so sorry for Jimmy. Odds will be well and truly against him now.

Here's hoping he can pull through.

 

[honkster7]

Awful news , but if anyone can beat this Jimmy can , best wishes to Jim and his family .

 

[damochandler]

just what you want to hear when someone has cancer. absolutely terrible news. best wishes to his family

 

[Lord_Travis]

Jeez that sucks. Jim is a real quality person. Best of luck to him in beating it. Our prayers and wishes are with you and your family.

 

[Shane_Mag]

I wish him all the best and hope he beats the cancer.

 

[Xtreme]

Not one for gossip, but i had heard more extensively what he was going through late last week, what a bummer.... Initially i didn't think much of it (knew it was serious, but not to the extent i was told ).

Here's hoping he wins the battle.

 

[lionbear]

Hope you can fight it Jimmy, You are a special man.

 

[Zeke]

****, cancer wins another battle...

 

[Giants FC]

Horrible news. If Jim reads this, best wishes and here's hoping you get through this.

[DirrtyBee]

Such terrible news.
I really hope the best for him

 

[OzBomber]

Really hard to decipher what he's saying, but I think I get it.

Does that last one say he went to hospital after cycling too hard?

 

[Trjn]

Beat this Jim.

Hey guys

Just posted it on the Melbourne board but thought you maybe interested.

Jimmy updated his Twitter page and states that they have discovered another tumour in his brain.

Shocking news, hopefully he can pull through aka Lance Armstrong who had the same thing.

So it was a tumour the first time also? If so this is very very bad news. They will most likely give him another dose of chemo but it will probably be the last time. The brain can only tolerate a certain amount of chemo before the risk of damage to the brain becomes too great. Miracles do happen and the cancer can go into remission for no apparant reason so lets hope he is one of those lucky people.

I've lost more family members to cancer than i care to remember, including my mother. God i hope they find a cure for it soon.

All the best Jimmah.

 

[Aucklander]

Can only echo other peoples get well msgs.

****, cancer wins another battle...

The battle isn't over, mate.

They gave my mother less than 3 months to live when she was diagnosed with cancer. She lasted another 13 years.

I have seen family members give up and die within 2 weeks of being diagnosed and i have witnessed people fight and live long lives.

Alot of it comes down to the will to survive. Everyone in my family thought my mother would outlive us because she had fought it for so long and always maintained it would never beat her.

One time after it flared up again she said to me "I don't want to fight this anymore. I've had enough" She was gone a week later.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Stand the mark Jimmy, don't let it beat you.
