So with no match on this weekend what’s everyone doing? I’ve been invited to a Chinese New Year, Burns night combined in effect a Chinese Burns night, I wasn’t going to go but they’ve twisted my arm.

Ed 25 I’m thinking Nick and Smitt are of an age where they don’t know what a Chinese Burn is ?.

Big C I have had many a Chinese burns ?.
I'm going to New York with my 7 year old daughter for revolutionary cancer treatment for her.
This will be slightly more bearable than watching our beloved Everton at the moment.

{Ed002's Note - I very much hope the treatment works.}

Yes good luck Smit, we have a great cancer hospital over here for children called St. Jude. Nobody gets a bill at St Jude's, it's all paid by voluntary donations. Hopefully the treatment in New York will be successful,
Mike.

Thanks for all the messages but we are in a good place now. 2 years ago she was diagnosed with the same aggressive cancer Bradley Lowery had (most blues will remember the Sunderland game and Bills donation) .
She got the all clear last November but the cancer has a high chance of coming back hence the US treatment. The treatment helps reduce the chances of it coming back.
We have raised half a million pounds to pay for the treatment and are going back for our 2nd round next week.
Getting the all clear was the best news ever but the last 2 years have been tough hence why I've stopped letting Everton depress me and haven't been on here much over the last few years.
Bluemike we are getting treatment at MSK which you most likely know.
All positive at the moment but again thanks for your messages.

{Ed001's Note - I am so sorry to read that Smit, I really hope she stays clear of it. Best of luck with the treatment and take care. It is times like this you remember how little football truly means in the grand scheme of things. Fingers crossed for her.}
