I knew there was something up with Terry. I follow his Gardenersclick videos on youtube every month and his not been in any for a couple months. I hope Terry makes full recovery!

I wonder whether Terry's illness had any bearing on that other Forum closing down? Can't remember its name but Terry gave advice on it.
Like Steve says, Gets yourself checked chaps, please!

[VirginVegGrower]

So sorry to hear that. He's a nice guy and that's a nasty disease that's hit this family once before. Neighbour's has recurred too. Checks and rechecks!

[veggiechicken]

I did sign up to it - can't remember why Too long ago

[Hans Mum]

Please guys get yourself checked if my dad had he might still be with us.........

[piskieinboots]

As HM says - if my FiL had been checked they would have caught it in time. Snowdrop has been for a check and says it's nothing to be worried about.

Here's hoping they have caught Terry W's nasty in time!

Several years ago mine found a lump,the upshot was,it was just a cyst,it was removed,and things have been fine since,thank goodness,
So check,or get checked,one way or another,if you get familiar with whats norm for you,after all IT'S YOUR BODY,and you only get the one,you will soon know of any changes,this advise is for those of you who are very shy,

I think this is the same Terry that's still on the Jeremy Vine show. Just listening to him now.

Always brings a smile with his enthusiam and accent

[veggiechicken]

It is the same Terry - he's on Jeremy Vine every week - and other radio programmes.

I hate resurrected old threads - they remind me of all the lovely grapes who no longer post on the vine....
