The hardest thing in the world is being told you are so ILL I Have called your Wife and Son in to say goodbye even the Intensive team could not do anything. The minute I gave Fran n Mark my pin number I said I have a few things to see yet my 1st Grandchild I have been given another chance it's going to be a struggle but when I see what my big pal Tony has achieved climbing Arthur Seat is still on.

Matt this sounds terrible but also possibly amazing - what exactly has happened? have you had the lung transplant? - all is rather unclear from your post and many new members won't know what you are referring to. And who is Tony?

Delighted that you are still here though! X

So sorry to hear you've been so bad Matt, but you've plenty to stay around for, such a lovely reason. Some years ago I had the terrible call your Fran (& Mark) had so I know the relief she'll have now you've fought with all the fight you have within you & turned that corner.

Now rest up, get past that struggle &..... change that PIN number! x

Hi mattcass, I'm Cassandra, I have lung involvement with my rheumatoid arthritis and just wondering how you are getting on. Tbh I didn't think they would consider lung transplant a possibility. I hope it has been a good thing for you x
