Yesterday I received in the mail a parcel from shikano53 (shikano53), Chris heard about my battle with cancer and said he wanted to send me something in the post. I was not expecting what arrived. His generosity is boundless what a man. It took my breath away and I am so grateful.

Thank you so much Chris. He makes the pipes himself and is a true artisan.

Thanks everyone and again thanks Chris, need all the love and goodwill just don't know if I can win this fight. Been in some tight spots in my life but this time I am not sure.

Can I beat the odds 15% last 5 years or more, are odds just there to be beaten?

Trying to remain positive!

Hang in there buddy, there are a lot of dam good people here on this forum pulling for you. It may be through the internet, but it is still a social connection where we meet fellow pipe smokers online and enjoy the fellowship. You are on the other side of the pond from us, but folks are thinking of you and offering support even while you sleep.
