No this is not a joke.This is the first of several things I have been keeping closeted recently.
I found out a few days ago that I have a form of bone cancer called Ostereosarcoma. It forms a mass on my leg under my knee and I have already had two operations so far. It has been malignant for a year and we didn't catch it and it was brushed off as benign. The default long term survival rate is around 85%. If it's found when it has already spread that number drops to around 25%. Fortunately for me - although it's been on me for almost a year it has not spread to the lungs yet (which is where it generally finds itself). I will be doing treatment starting in a few weeks and I'm overall optimistic about the outcome of it.
Thanks guys, you're awesome!

Oh my gosh Tene, that's awful. You have my best wishes, I know you're far stronger than any bloody tumor could manage to be. You got this man.Posted on 27 June 2016 - 11:17 PM
That's terrible. That's good that it hasn't spread to your lungs. Hope the treatment goes well.Posted on 27 June 2016 - 11:19 PM
Wow, good luck with the treatment, hope you're ok.Posted on 28 June 2016 - 03:05 AM

Even though i dont think u like me seen as u seemed overly excited when i got banned on jd5, i wish u all the best with the treatment and i hope it all goes well for u, it takes a lot of guts to share something like this especially with how toxic the internet is 2day so i think it shows a strength of character in doing so, gl with it all :)
