Friday was my worst moment in this adventure , when the doctor told me it’s an agressive form of cancer it hit me hard. No matter what I’ve gone through so far you still don’t believe it’s all real, I’m just in a dream, it’s not reality I will just wake up soon and go back to my normal life training ambulance drivers. This was a massive wake up, it was a knock on the door, this shit is real Woody and you have got to do something about it now before it’s too late, I’ve got to change me to fix me

It’s hard when your told it’s never going to be cured, it’s a form of cancer that will keep coming back.
The signs were there it was already at an advanced stage and spread from my prostate into my spine and hips so quickly. 
But it can be controlled by drugs and when each drug stops working we move on to the next drug. I am lucky in many ways and most certainly I’m fortunate to have this cancer in a time where there are possibilities. I’m grateful for the chance to get these drugs thank you NHS 💙
Friday was horrible, well I’m over it now , it makes no difference, I’ve always liked a challenge this is one that I’m going to face and give everything I’ve got. I’m so so lucky to have so much support from you guys that are reading this blog, I’ve had some wonderful messages and calls , you know who you are and your compassion kindness and concern has just recharged me and given me more than enough strength. I really do believe that cancer stands no chance when you have a formidable growing army of warriors fighting as one.💪
You will already know if you have read my blog for a while about my unbending beliefs in the power the universe holds, it has to sit up and take notice now, there has been so much goodwill, kindness and love being sent my way it must by the powers it holds do something, the gratitude I’m feeling is overwhelming.🙏
I’m riding this storm out, every time cancer does something else to me I fight back, my weapon now is gratitude, not spite anger or hatred they are emotions no cancer fighter needs because it feeds off negative emotions, my power comes from gratitude, I read your comments on the blog directly and in my social media and these give me my kryptonite please keep them coming, please comment directly on the blog I feel your love in every word, it’s true.❤️
We all have our ups and downs in life and the most powerful force is friendship kindness and pure gratitude. The hardest thing to say is help. I think I asked for help when I started writing this blog, it was unintentional but something made me write all my thoughts down when I first went into hospital it’s a subconscious cry for help. ❤️🙏
I’ve also had messages about how this blog is helping others in their situations, what ever anyone is going through sharing your thoughts is powerful stuff and between us we can change our own personal worlds.🙏❤️
Ive decided to make some radical changes from now on. I’m reading the radical remissions book and there are 9 things that each cancer survivor had in common, 9 things that came up time and time again and I’m going to be sharing those in the next few blogs because they are life changing and life saving even if you don’t have cancer, it would be worth anyone reading this to take notice and maybe change some stuff that can help you prevent this nasty disease from affecting you. 9 weapons that I’m going to use from now in. 9 weapons that will have cancer begging to leave my body because it can’t stand living in the environment I’m going to create for it.⚔️
It will be on its hands and knees praying for an escape from me, it wil no longer be directing this movie, or conducting the orchestra that is my body. The cancer will be leaving defeated head slumped down and will not want to come back to visit me in the future, sorry doctor but you are wrong in this case. 👨‍⚕️⚕️
I’m motivated like a boxer about to enter the ring knowing that this is the fight of his life. I’m not in fear, I’m a warrior along with all my other warriors and we can and will do this. This force is unstoppable, no matter what the barriers we will just pull them back down.🥊
Phew I’m glad I’ve got that off my chest I was about to get half naked and scream out the window we are Sparta 

The first of the nine things I need to do is based on diet, I’ve read a lot about this and it was no surprise that diet was no 1 on the list of things that the 1500 people who radically went into remission to somehow beat the odds all had a change of diet in some way.
I’m going to from now on start a plant based diet of food and drink, so caffeine has to go, I’ll start drinking caffeine free coffee and tea from now on. In fact I haven’t had a coffee since Friday morning and I’m getting the hazy head that caffeine withdrawal gives you, that’s nothing really in the scheme of things I suppose.☕
Cancer cells grow faster the more sugar you have in you to feed them so I’m cutting down on all the sweet stuff.🥞🎂🍰🍥
Fruit vegetables nuts and beens pulses will be my main diet, yes I’m becoming a squirrel
I think it’s a vegen diet anyway that’s what I’m going to start with. No dairy products either , I’ll let you know through the weeks what I’m making it could be quite interesting. 
I plan to also drink 8 glasses of water each day💧 and I’m going to be making up some interesting smoothies with veg and fruit, that should be fun.🍆🍇🍈🍉🍊🍋🍌🍅🍄🌾🌽🍏🍐🥑
The other 8 in the book that consistently came up in interviews with the cancer survivors are 
• Taking control of your health 
• Following your intuition 
• Using herbs and supplements 
• Releasing suppressed emotions
• Increasing positive emotions 
• Embracing social support 
• Deepening your spiritual connection • Having strong reasons for living
These are the other 8 I think I’m doing a few of those already. 
The main thing is I want to take control of my body, it makes sense really to clean my body of junk food and replace it with healthy stuff. I want to give cancer nothing to feed on, my mind is good, I’m back in a good place, cancer can’t touch my mind it’s guarded by an invisible force made of unshakable belief and love that has been sent to me, it’s reinforced by kindness and gratitude, it won’t get through.🙏
I’m living my life no matter how long it is, on my terms not cancers, I’ll do stuff that it won’t want me to do. I’m going to keep walking every single day untill I can’t. I will live in happiness and not from a place of fear. 
I’m back again…..we are Sparta 
The walking has continued and my virtual walk from Helsinki to lapland is going well as you can see below.

 I love the motivation this gives me and I would advise anyone who is going through their own bad situation right now to get out and start walking , download the world walk app and walk all over the world, every step you take in the real world is added on to your virtual walk. Good luck.

Please feel free to comment on the blog I love reading all of your messages, you have no idea how comforting and motivating they are for me. ❤️

  1. Hey Woody, I love your positive attitude and outlook on life, always have. Two things I thought of on reading your update today. We have the most amazing Vegan Burger Restaurant in Maidstone if you fancy a treat and it fits in with your diet, it's proper vegan, all plant based, it's my favourite takeaway treat at the moment. They are called The Rainbow Skull, soon opening a shop in the Royal Star Arcade. Second thought I had was have you revisited or read up on Thought Field Therepy? We have spoke about it in the past. I seem to recall examples of TFT helping with cancer cures, and unexplained remission cases. May be a topic to add to your reading list.
