OK - I'm going to be quite serious about this...
so if you're after a larf, move on!

A friend's two year old boy was last year discovered to have a very large and very agressive tumour in his abdomen. We have hung on the weekly phone calls as he's gone through chemo, radio, bone marrow implants etc.

Two weeks ago, he was practically given up as lost. High temp, unexplained swellings, almost in a coma.

This week he came home from hospital - a turn around of epic proportions! Every time I think about it, the eyes start to sting, but I still can't imagine how his parents feel.

His father is a former member of the Australian Wallabies World Cup Rugby team that lost to the boot of Johnny Wilkinson. He is a man's man, but I'll bet you he's shed a tear or three.
