cancer is Pants

[The Falcon]

Apologies if already posted but worth a read, especially if you think a football result is the be all and end all tomorrow. Girl from Jedburgh just wants to see Hibs before she dies and seems like the club are on it, thankfully. Those with links inside ER can maybe put a wee word in.

Yup, a horrible disease that can still take people so young.

Very sad

[Pretty Boy]

I'm sure Hibs will look after her well.

I have a friend who's Granddad was ill and when he began to deteriorate one of his last wishes was to see Hibs again. Both him and his family were treated to a fantastic day in hospitality and were looked after well. Sadly CC was manager at the time so of course we lost to Hearts.

Hibs are very good at stuff like this.

Thats good to hear. I know Hibs do these things without trumpeting about it, which is as it should be. Just reiterates all that is good about our club.

[blackpoolhibs]

I have a good friend who has cancer, he actually has it in two places. We all know he's not got long, maybe 6 months at most.

He's one quarter of 4 of us who go out most weeks for a pint, and we go on holiday a couple of times a year, he's only 47 and one of lifes good guys.

He's a big Man City fan, has been all his life. He followed them when they were in the third tier of the game down here in England, and i know it won't save him but personally i'm glad these arabs have come in and helped City win the league and give City some silverware recently.

Its made him so happy, and i'm glad he's been here to see it.

:agree: :agree: :agree: :agree: Sue Mclernon is the person to speak to re a tour round ER or to take in a match so I will ask her about this :aok:

[Aldo]

My dad had his bladder and the works removed a year past April. Op took 10 hours.

Checks every 6 months cos it was an aggressive type so fingers crossed.

Don't think I slept for 2 weeks with work, kids and going across to see him in monk lands everyday.

He's ok now but ... Well you know.

. I am more than certain that the powers that be at ER and at the SRU will ensure she had a memorable trip. God bless her.

It's a terrifying and sobering disease, something that instantly changes how you look at and value things in your life. My wife (then fiancé) was diagnosed with cancer last year, 3 months before our wedding. Fortunately she's come through it strongly, but it really is something that shatters your world in a second.

[Jamesie]

You think you've had a rubbish week then you read that story and realise how lucky you are.

[cabbageandribs1875]

what a damn shame, the one word in the dictionary that whenever mentioned sparks true fear in a human being, i hope the lassie gets enough time to complete everything on that bucket list

[lucky]

Her bucket list is hardly going to break the bank. Can we not all chip in a few quid?

Thank you :aok:

[hibs4thecup1988]

Cancer is a horrible thing. Sadly lost my mum 2 years ago. The word just sends shivers down my back. Hope this young person gets everything they wish for.

[marti1875]

I'm actually just recovering from a major cancer op and scare right now. It can just suddenly happen and one minute i felt fit and healthy without a care in the world then suddenly to be told you have to have a major op due to a massive cancerous growth is quite a shock!

Not managed a game recently...but looking on here maybe that's been a good thing judging by the doom and gloom at times, :greengrin but normal service will be resumed very soon i hope :agree:

I'm sure the club will help this girl out for sure.

[Keith_M]

I lost my mother to Cancer about two years ago and have also lost a number of relatives to the same disease. It really is a horrible disease, watching somebody you love deteriorate gradually and knowing there's nothing you can do about it.


Somehow it seems even worse that this poor lassie hasn't even had the chance to really live her life yet.


Is there a paypal address or something where we can donate? I couldn't see anything like that in the article.

Here's the article in a local paper, it mentions " how to donate" at the end.

i've not got the time at the moment, but could someone maybe e-mail her friend and ask if she could maybe sort out a site for donating, preferably through paypal

[Pretty Boy]

Would the admins be willing to take donations through the .net paypal account then forward it on in a week or so?

Good call PB :agree:

Like other .netters on this thread I lost my mum to cancer. My father-in-law is currently getting treatment for Prostate Cancer and I know other friends who have had it and are in remission.

I had a couple of parties organised last summer for my 50th birthday celebrations and decided that I would set up a Just Giving page so people could give donations to charity rather than getting yet more presents to fill up my already cluttered house.

Through the incredible generosity of family, friends and a donation from my work along with Gift Aid I managed to raise over £1,350 for Prostate Cancer UK. Setting up a Just Giving page is really easy and the charities are delighted with any size of donations. www.justgiving.com

If you have a houseful of stuff and a significant occasion coming up please consider chosing a cancer charity and ask for donations so we can support the doctors and scientists who are looking for better diagnostics and cures.

Absolutely awful disease, unfortunately I know people who have and have had it, as well as folk who have sadly passed away from it, including people who are relatively young.

I hope the club can organise a nice day out for this woman and look after her well.

No idea D! Someone has mentioned that there may be a problem in getting one for just one game tho'. My contact doesn't have his this season so that's that option out. I'm going to let the girls mum arrange it now as I think they're a wee bit overwhelmed with all the attention and need someone to take control.

I was thinking for the spa weekend with friends you could book Crieff Hydro for pampering and then stay the weekend in our cottage less than a mile away." :not worth

Friends of Leighanne have seemingly sorted a Scotland game for her to attend so that's another item on the list crossed off :thumbsup:

[FranckSuzy]

After transferring the bulk of the monies raised yesterday, I received this email today from the lady who is administering the PayPal a/c for Leighanne:

"Susan
This is an incredibly generous and wonderful donation to Leighanne.

The money will be transferred to Leighanne immediately.
Thank you to you all

Katherine."

Huge well done Guys :aok:

Fantastic effort by all to give this young lady a day to remember. How good would it be if the players came out with the pants on! :wink: It's too young and down right wrong...........

We all have a story to tell............ Cancer is such a B******....

Lost family and friends to cancer over the years and that is why Marie Curie Cancer Care have a place in my heart.

Many of you will remember toaosi, who sadly passed away after suffering with cancer. I cycled the Canadian Rockies in his memory and have fought tooth and nail for Marie Curie ever since.

Last year I cycled "Lands End to John O'Groats" for Edinburgh MC, and next year we take on Ireland - "Tip to Toe", again for MC.

So proud to follow Hibernian FC and be part of this wonderful family :cb

[silverhibee]

Can i give you £20 on Saturday FS.

I know a lot of folk are quick to moan when Hibs don't blow their own trumpet re things done in the community (whereas the Yams seem quick to do this even if it's to announce wages have been paid :greengrin).

Is this an opportunity to blow our own trumpet by contacting the press to bring it to their attention or would that be a bit crass?

Sorry to hear that sir. Not a lot I can add.

:-( I just had that horrible feeling when I saw this thread back at the top.

Too young and taken too soon. RIP x


Me too.

a tear brought to the eye. Glad she's been released from her pain, but definitely too young too soon.

puts everything else into perspective.

Thoughts with her family.

Really sad to hear this. A terrible week after, Aberdeen fan Cammy Smith lost his battle with Leukaemia. His facebook and Twitter campaign became very well known locally and raised awareness for bone marrow donation.

RIP Leighanne and Cammy.

I posted how sorry I was to hear the news on the 'cancer is pants' Facebook page and Stacey, Leighanne's friend who organised the fundraising, has replied "Susan, you and all of the Hibs family were absolutely amazing at making Leighanne's wishes come true and for that we thank you." :aok:

I've received an email from Leighanne's mum yesterday, thanking us for our support. "I would like to pass on our thanks to yourself and all of the Hibs family for making her match day happen and the kind donations that helped us along the way to her bucket list. She managed to complete the all the big items on her list, Hibs match, Scotland match. They lost that day too! Leighanne reckoned she jinxed you both, lol!"

What a great lady, taking the time to say thanks :agree: I'm sure that I spoke for all of us when I said that it really was our pleasure :aok: RIP Leighanne.
