Socoder -> Off Topic -> Two More Years!

It's exactly two years today, since they discovered the brain tumour.

I can remember that day like it was yesterday.
I'd been kept awake at night by that same cramp in my neck, so I figured, "what the heck" and posted AGameAWeek a few hours earlier!

Mental Psychic Pulling Forces

Over the next few hours I was desperately trying to get as much sleep as I could, but inevitably spent the time clambering into the bathroom to throw up.
It really wasn't a pleasant day at all, and then the vomit started to get a worrying shade of black/red..
That's when we called the ambulance, and.. well, then it all kicked off!!

Two days, it took, before I was able to get back online!! Two whole days with no internet!! I finally got hold of my crapola-HTC Wildfire phone, and got mum to shove £10 credit on it, and I was back on Socoder in an instant..
I just about managed to make a very small shout in the shoutbox, before they whisked me away for surgery!
Scared?! You bet your arse I was scared!!!

... Two years on, and I'm still here.
I've written 39 games in that time (more if you count all the unreleased bits and pieces!) and I'm sure I'll be writing more.

I'd like to thank all the well-wishers, all the many great words, and especially all the doctors and nurses who helped me on my journey. I'm lucky to be here, and I'm extremely lucky to still be able to write AGameAWeek. ..or in fact, anything!!

Thanks All

It's great that you are still in the land of the living, so a massive thanks to everyone that helped in your recovery.

Glad you made it Jay.

You are one hell of a tough brave bugger with having to go through all that, a lot braver than me and that's a fact.

I think I speak for us all when I say we're all super-proud to still have you here.
