He had had skin cancer many years ago, which he put down to when he worked on many build sites and chose not to wear a shirt on sunny days. Just over a year ago he appeared on TV shows looking extremely thin and his voice had changed. I assume that the cancer had come back. My neighbor had most of his bottom lip and part of his face, jaw and neck removed 10 years ago, because of melanoma. He’d had radiation treatment for weeks to shrink the tumours, prior to surgery but melanoma spreads quickly and they tend to have to remove wider tissue margins to stop further spread. Three weeks ago, he told me it had come back with a vengeance and was awaiting a prognosis, as the surgeon said surgery may not be possible due to how far it had spread up his face and radiation treatment alone won’t work. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very good mate of mine from when we worked in Oman together got a malignant melanoma on his cheek.He was black haired & always got a dark tan in the sun so when he played golf in Thailand he didn't wear a hat. He retired & lived in Jomtien with his Thai wife who he met & married in Oman & died in a Bangkok hospital a few months ago. Maybe someone on here knew him.RIP Bryan Rought my old friend. Even if you are dark skinned the sun can still kill you so take care! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you are dark skinned the sun can still kill you so take care! Skin cancer is a huge killer. Should probably see a dermatologist 3 times per year (for us older folks), especially if you are lighter skin and have spent a lot of time in the sun. Nasty stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember visiting Montreal, seems like a decade ago IIRC, and the radio just announced the best seats to that “farewell tour” were going for $650, retail. Don’t believe Stubhub was around, if so I could see 10K for a good seat Edited August 24, 2021 by Golfingboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
