Please, everyone, be smarter than I was…a public service message to my watch friends

I’m not looking for sympathy, I truly want all of you to please pay attention to what your bodies are telling you. For about eight or nine months, maybe longer, I told myself and my family it’s all just because I’m getting older…”I’m 64, of course my arth... 

Thanks for sharing, Emil.

An eye opening reminder how things work here at our Mother's Earth... Sincerely all the best to you.

Fingers crossed on both hands for a full recovery, Emil. Two of my oldest and dearest friends . . .

Thank you for sharing this frightening experience.

Without good health everything else doesn’t matter. I wish you a speedy recovery. Beat this damn thing!

I’m really sorry to hear that…

But glad that you are doing better and recovering. I’m waiting for the photos of your new Jaquet Droz.

Just checked the model you indicated

I don’t know which dial color you’ll choose but that will be your surprise to us, they are all very elegant. You are lucky to have such a cool wife. Awaiting for your photos when you receive the watch, all the best

Your words are very wise and greatly appreciated, as I myself have currently made some appointments to get checked. Hopefully just for precaution. I do it for me, but also for my growing family. Now I wish you all the best for your future full recovery! I...  

Thanks. I’ve admired your JD in your posts in the past, very nice. And a wonderful display…you’re obviously a fan of the brand.

I understand doing things for family, it’s not just about ourselves. When first diagnosed I discussed with my wife and kids that although I wanted and valued their opinions, they had to accept my decision to either deny or accept treatment based on what w... 

I wish you all the best on your journey. I have an idea what you’re going through.

Thanks for sharing Emil

Please look after yourself, diet, sleep, mental health, activity, and a few other not obvious things can still have a big impact, further to the treatment. Speedy recovery and warmest regards

Stay strong

Never fun to read such a heavy post. We do not want to lose a friend, all prayers for you to recover. Live can be fragile, it’s a message. I live with a chronic illness, but life is to good to taken of illness. I go on the matter what attacks me, you surv... 

And since this is a watch forum…

Every once in a while, my wife would bring me a watch to wear for the day in my hospital bed. Excuse the poor photo, hospitals do not have the best lighting. ...  

Emil, sincerely, thank you for the PSA.

Sending you positive thoughts and strength for the next round. I hope the incoming JD can offer some distraction.

I wish you a very healthy recovery Emil !

 
By: bimbeano : January 8th, 2024-23:06
Don't loose your courage, I have a few friends with serious issues like yours and they're all fighting against it .... and it seems they all conquer it ! I'm praying for you. Filip

Wow. Well, I am glad you were surrounded by folks who love and care about you.

Leukemia is no joke, but you're exactly right. Nothing keeps us down! I hope things improve and lead you back to stable health. Take care and please do share the JD when you can.

Dear Emil, it is humbling to read what you (and your family) are going through, but I salute you for your strength and kindness in sharing your experience as a larger lesson to us all 🫡. It is definitely needed and appreciated.🙏🏽

We all certainly wish you a speedy recovery, and it is encouraging to see you are able to share again on the forum. From a healthcare perspective it’s also good to know you have access to world class expertise, including second opinions from places like M...

wishing you good reaction to the treatment, patience, mental strength and power to transform this experience into something positive. Petr (myself cancer survivor since 20 yrs, my younger partner in 'complete remission' from a non-Hodgkin since a month)

Dear Emil,

 
By: MTR : January 9th, 2024-10:22
what can you say about that? At first I was speechless. Thank you for your important reminder to all of us. And your trust and affection for sharing your very personal experiences and feelings with us here. I'm glad that you got through your first therapy... 

Don’t blame yourself…

Symptoms are complicated. Just made an appointment yesterday for some seemingly minor issues. Thanks for the heads up! 💪🏻🙏🏻🤙🏻

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR THE KIND AND ENCOURAGING REPLIES!

Sorry for not responding to every reply personally but it’s a bit much to handle, emotionally. I assure everyone I carefully read each and every post. I didn’t expect all this support but I shouldn’t be surprised, this has always been a great group. Lates...
