For those of you that haven't seen them, Nick and Ian Morrison did two videos about how to procrastinate, and to this day they still make me grin, and f*ck if they can shred it!!

One of the things that no doubt helped Nicks recovery was DH Mtb. That's pretty special and this guy deserves a lot of credit! Sometimes people take sport to seriously, there is a place for competition, but what this video really drove home for me was that sport is all about personal goals, and achieving them is sweeter than beating others! Sorry Brosnan, but this is more special in my eyes!
Awesome story

Looking great Nick, we need more people like you around! Stay positive and keep it rubber side up and you will be set. Looking forward to hearing and seeing some updates! #f*ckcancer

If the people eat more healthy from the home made garden , they never had the chance to get cancer. Cancer is not the Deamon you all think of .

ClausS (Aug 21, 2014 at 4:19)

Sorry mate, that's rubbish. There is a huge amounts of noxious, carcinogenic material washed down from athmosphere by rain. PCB- and Non-PCB-like dioxines, you name it. It aggregates in soil and water and than in plants grown on that soil. Little chance to prevent that, you'd need a sealed laboratory to do so. The highest level of dioxines is found in farm produce grown by organic standards.

Apart from that: cancer ain't that simple so you can say: eat healthy and you'll stay healthy. Get down to reality, boy.
