That made my heart sink. No parent should ever have to hear this news. My heart goes to your mate's Ex wife and her family. Truly heart wrenching.
Having a young one at home, reading that just kicked me in the guts. I literally went picked him up and gave him a good cuddle.
All the best to the family and all people within. And I really hope the oncologist stuffed up.
X2 with Hodge. Mine are in bed but it made me stop and think.
Condolences to the family in pain.
If you don't mind me asking what condition does the little fighter have?
Having lost my parents and 2 In-Laws to cancer as well as numerous other relations, I hate to say it but it still wouldn't even come close to the pain I would feel if it was one of my kids. I am so sorry for your mates daughter and her family and friends, Mego.
Thats so sad why do kids have to go through this agony
i feel for the little one sorry to hear mick
x 2 with Roofy's comment
No Parent should have their children die before them
Thats sad to hear.
Just a thought you bunch down that way seem to be a fairly tight bunch.
why not if the little one is still up to it.
get together raise some dollars and,
put on a weekend get away 4x4 experience for the little one and family.
normality goes a long way for lifting spirits when times a tough.
yeah It may sound like a tough thing to do.
who's going to take em in their car,
"what if it was my child".
going out of your way will not only put a smile on the little ones face, but her whole family.
you'll feel the better for it to.
local church, hospital, doctor, ronald McDonald house could maybe point you in the directions needed to put on a really successful event.
" possibility of an annual charity event run for the benefit of our children ".
Feel for you and the family , it's a tuff time , we had a rough start with our second one , the wife new something was not right , as they do , went and had a scan done , then began the most terrifying time of my life , there was a tumor the size of large man's fist on her tail bone , her hips dislocated and her knees under her arm pits , had more specialists then I new existed around , they whipped her out , then into surgery , alot of hours later they had removed her tail bone and the tumor , and straightened her out , all the bits around her pelvis had to be put back in position , a couple months in neonatal intensive care and 4 years later we have a happy as Larry daughter who takes great pride in her custom built butt .
I have the upmost admiration of the people that worked on her , ( they are amazingly strong and gifted )
It makes you realise whats important in life , the things you see in neonatal intensive care are truly heart breaking , as we meet a few couples that never got the chance to even hold their kids ,

I saw this thread last night and was speechless. I could not even consider the possibility of one of my brood being taken from us. My heart goes out to the family and my thoughts are with them.
I dislike sad stories..even more so when children are involved.wishing the families all the best and hope they can stay strong.
if you need cars to take them on a drive in the bush to go fishing, anything yell out.
Never good when little one involved, thoughts with the family
I have nothing to say and have even stayed away from this thread as it is to sad to bare........ I dont know how I would cope and wish I could use my magic powers to make everything right..!!!!!
I'm similar to above. Saw this thread last night and didn't really know how to reply.Quote:

Reading that is just heart wrenching. Sincerest wishes to them mate, no parent should ever have to fairwell their child like that.
Really brings into perspective just how fragile and life is and that we need to be thankful for the time we have and get annoyed at the silly little things.
That's a great idea Robo. Mego up to you mate if you want to run something like this for us Mexicans and you or I can manage it to make sure some support can go your mates way.Quote:

verry sad indeed and gives me a ill feeling to even think about if i had this news with my daughter or son.
and you would think facebook would make a dislike button for stuff like this.. kinda wierd 6 people liked it.
Its taken me all day to open this thread as I knew i wasnt going to be good, reading this is so heart wrenching, and has brought me to tears, as I have a young daughter myself, your pain is our pain, my deepest sympathys to those who are related, this is so terrible,just really dont know what to say, lets all pray for a miracle.
MM that's so, so sad beyond comprehension.
A very close mate of mine Mick lost his 5 YO son Chase mid to late last year to a brain tumour after being diagnosed three months earlier.
Having to go through what they had to knowing the little fella's fate was the most tragic thing I had ever heard of. The human finds reserves not thought possible that others would never experience otherwise.
Mego, please pass on condolences to the family mate.
Al.
That's terrible news, my condolennces goes out to all involved. i can't even comprehend what they would be going through, i have 3 daughters myself and would not know how to cope with something like this. All the best.
I'm sure there are many memories, past and present, that will be cherished and carry on into eternity.
Live in the moment and make every second count.
My love and prayers go out to all.
Rossco
That is just terrible. I say definitely organise something to make the rest of her life absolutely epic. Every child deserves love and attention, but she deserves something truly special. Once again, Mine and my family's heart go out to her and her family.Quote:

Money is not a concern for them.
I asked if they wanted to be taken on a 4wd outing and bluntly said "No Way".
I just feel bad cos we haven't really spoken since my mates divorce 13-14 years ago.
don't feel bad , that just the sad side of human nature,
you have offered the olive branch you cant do more than that.
It must be cant put it words but terrible for them.
went through this with my sisters daughter who died at 5yo.
Never good and sometimes things are said in the heat of the moment.
prayers are all we can offer sadly
Come around and have a few JDs
Like a few others, I had read this and just didn't know what to say.
Loosing a child would have to be the worst thing anybody could ever experience and I consider myself lucky that my kids and grandkids are so healthy.
I have seen friends and family die from cancer but never a child and I hope I never do.
Condolences to all.
I hope someone's looking after you too Mego.... This can't be easy for you either mate...
Like I said this is my mates ex wife's which they divorced 13-14 Yrs ago and it's her child not my mates.Quote:

Ok,
so doing something positive from our perspective 4x4 weekend getaway seems to be off the table for this little one.
All the same still bad news.
A lump in my throat gave me a scare some time back
My wife's sister has gone through leukaemia as a child and twice tumour on the brain later as a adult.,
life's to short.
Point being, recon we as a group could do something and donate the proceeds to a worthy cause.
OUR KIDS.
even if your to far away to physically participate, donations still count all the same.
Very true, I have also found out that they are not as good of a position with money as I first thought.Quote:

Although I don't think a trip will be on the cards but perhaps a small fundraiser would be the next best thing.
I hope your friends get through this mego...it will be a struggle and a half for them and anyone close to them...I can feel their thoughts and feelings of loneliness ..they will need friends later.....I lost my first little girl to cancer..my wishes and hopes to them that they are strong enough and now is the time that miracles should be saved to use for the little one ....cheers
Alex has now passed away.
That's awful Mick, I'm sorry to hear.
No good mego sorry to hear mate. All the best
