Big thank you to the club.

Just wanted to give you all an update. The first cycle of chemo went very well and was successful in its purpose and a good remission was achieved. We're now into the second cycle, so dealing with the side effects again. He seems in a very good place physically and mentally (although in his words Saturday didn't help). The other reason I'm posting here, is that for the past 3-4 weeks since he's been losing his hair he's coined a phrase that had been often repeated which is "bald for promotion", hopefully he's right. Think the boredom is getting to him a bit which I can fully understand. The good thing is although we won't be attending any more matches this season he does have access to Sky Sports, so all those moved matches are great for us and they give him something to look forward to. He's asked me what would happen if we got to the play off final, I said I wouldn't go and that I'd be watching it with him at the hospital which pleased him greatly. I also just wanted to say thank you for all the support from everyone here, be it on this thread, in person or messages, so thank you.

I may have just had a slight leakage in the eye area. What a brave lad.

I think we know what you're going through - as I posted a couple of months ago about our 7 year old Grandson who went into cardiac arrest while playing footy at school. The paramedics had to cut open his favourite Albion shirt - the club sent him a replacement home shirt plus an away shirt signed by the whole first team squad. He is now well on the road to recovery having been fitted with a mini defibrillator, and was back in his seat in the east stand for the Burnley Game. I hope and pray that Charley recovers as well, and will be back to watch the Albion in the Premiership next season - He is in the very best place for his treatment.
