Title: Fingers Crossed
Post by: grog on Wednesday, 12 August 2026, 06:43 PM
Wasnt going to mention, but i am. Not much riding next couple of months. My Wife has a mouth cancer into her jaw. Docs cant operate but confident radiation will work. So thats our mission, 7-8 weeks, 5 days p/w.Only a 50k return trip but traffic can be hell. Not sad or unhappy, is what it is. Wish us luck and sorry to burden you blokes with our problem.

Sorry to hear that Grog, but it's good to hear the docs are confident about the radiotherapy. Understandable that it's going to be your focus for the next wee while...look after yourself too and keep in touch on here. It's no burden to us.

Hoping for the best for Mrs Grog. At least they're confident with the treatment.

The stress must be awful for both of you.

Sharing "this stuff" on a forum always leaves me with mixed feelings.

A) You need / want to vent with possible like minded people

B) You want to have a bike related happy place.

Hope the docs are correct. Fingers crossed indeed  :onya:

Best wishes to the pair of you.
Good the doc feels confident.

No harm in sharing.
You are a valid part of this forum.
Any absence of stress would be understandable.

Hope all go's well.

We have already seen that this forum is unlike others (I only do this one; but have been on others).Folks here are in that age group where these kind of things tend to affect us all, if not thinking that it can happen to us or our loved ones. Sometimes just letting it out with someone who barely knows you I think is a human need, then no judgement is made.
