Everything with a joke

1 minute read time.

I know this may sound daft but doing these blogs makes me feel a whole lot better, but when i reply to any blogs i do it in my own inimitable way thats with a joke or a sarcastic comment. i dont mean to be this way its just that everything that has happened to me over a period of so many years is that i deal with it with laughter, well sort of laughter sometimes its very dry and sarcastic but there is nothing meant by it. I don't mean to offend anyone and if i do i apologise now whole heartedly, i know humour and answers sometimes dont go together but i find it does so thats me, a very dry sarcastic tell you how it is kind of guy. My partner of the l;ast 4 years loves my sense of humour, our boys groan at my stupid and silly jokes, they tend not to have heard them or "not that one again?" my party piece is the "time on your cock " joke, work it out for yourself lol when i was told at first that i had got this terrible thing there was a doctor asking me questions, my consultant had just told me " Mr Bows you have got cancer, and we are gonna treat it with radio therapy" then this other doctor asked me " Have you got any allergy's?" "Yes, Cancer and Radio therapy........lol ...... The consultant shook his head and with a smile said "I like your attitude." with this i then had to tell my family that i had got this terrible thing, so i did it with humour, the boys when i told them were happy i was coping, or so they say, and well my gf cried making me cry too, so if i respond with a sarcastic wise crack its my way of dealing with the situation, in my opwn way, again apologises if i offend its not intended to offend

Thanks for reading and comments are more than welcome

    Hi,

    All of us affected by this vile disease cope as best we can.  A sense of humour is a great asset in coming to terms with our situations.

    Your comment about allergies gave me a laugh on a very beak morning.  

    Hope all goes well with your treatment.

    Keep smiling and blogging

    Sarcasm is fine, jokes are better. Just try not to use it to avoid things but if it helps you to cope and make us smile along the way brilliant.  I'm sure you won't offend.

    Morning Biggles, just read your blog.  Thanks for sharing who you are and, no, I don't feel affected by who you are as this site is for all individuals.  We all deal with life in our own way and I must say, I've found laughter at myself much easier to bear than crying and feeling down.  Also, there's a line I remember "Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you cry alone".  There is a lot of truth in that line but this site is a capsule site where all feelings, good, bad, sad, happy, anger,  fear, can be put into.  So. Biggles, go ahead, be yourself and don't apologise for being human again - I think you are big enough to know not everyone will share your point of view and you seem kind enough (as shown on your blog) to realise if you've trodden on someone else's toes.  Be lucky, live every day, laugh lots and make the most of it.  Annie x

    Hi Mate,

    Welcome to the Mad House ! - sound like you will fit in well ! - Yes humour does help - even if its dark humour at times. We all cope in our own ways and go at our own pace and we do understand that.

    Though humour is good never be afraid to show the other side of your nature, there will be times when humour alone will not be enough. Never feel you can't let your guard down or let people know you are hurting or worried. You just need to remember how many friends you have on here that you have just not met yet !

    Some times us guys need to share the fact we are hurting ! - it does not make you less of a man, maybe the exact opposite.

    You have probably already discovered just how good the site is for information, support and people who both care and understand how difficult this path can be.

    Hope all goes well with the scans treatment and progress - the waiting for results is sometimes the hardest part.

    Take Car - and Keep Smiling

    John
