A source told The Sun newspaper: "Michael's test showed spots of skin cancer on his body, and cell which could turn to skin cancer on his face.

"He was at first very concerned, but says he has been assured by the doctors that they can treat this and he will recover.

"Michael is really looking forward to his concerts and is determined to wow his fans at each and every gig."

The source added: "He said he's insisted that any treatment must fit around the concerts, and the show will go on."

What a surprise......WSS celebrates in someone else being diagnosed with cancer, that's never happened before.

 

Indeed, I'm obviously mistaken that even here on TMS there would be a certain level of common decency. I suppose it takes all sorts, just wondering how they would feel if one of their family or loved ones was diagnosed and some prik made fun of it?

I'm quite calm my friend. I just thought that despite this being the internet there are certain standards of civilised behaviour that one would maintain, if one had any self respect or a gramme of common decency?

 

I couldn't even bring myself to laugh if a certain woman contracted cancer despite what I think of her and her policies!

 

But, it is the internet and TMS so anything goes.

 

For those who have no self control that is.

That's a bit harsh

 

I remember some people's comments regarding Jade Goody - they were a lot stronger than celebrating Jacko having skin cancer

So you don't think that all those treatments he had turning himself from Black to White might be behind the cause of his SKIN cancer?

 

And if they are, who else should we blame for this [non] tragedy?

That is just cruel Dog. My wedding nearly didn't go ahead as he died on the eve of it. I had the option of getting a refund or the actual concert ticket - I am sure you can guess my choice.

 

Big lol.

 

Whilst I can understand why some people would want to keep the tickets for the gigs as some sort of memento, to even consider not going ahead with your wedding due to Jacko popping his clogs the night before is just mental.

 

If I were getting married and my wife-to-be was thinking of cancelling it due to the death of a pop star, I’d seriously being asking myself if I wanted to be with someone like that!

I can understand keeping a ticket for a concert I went to, I have done same myself, but I can't

understand why you would want to keep one for an event that never happened especially if you

could get money back instead.IMHO there is no point in keeping it to make money in the distant

future as surely no-one would buy it ??

I had a very similar thing happen to me so can understand your pain Jill. My and wife are today happily married, but it nearly didn't happen. We were young and in love. It was the 1980's. Great days. We had decided that the wedding would be close family and friends and the first dance would be to Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing". It was going to be a sexy dance with a lot of rubbing up against each other. we chose it because we were (are) both big Marvin Gaye fans. Our wedding day - April 2nd 1984. I'm sure you are all aware what happened the day before the wedding. That's right, Marvin was shot dead by his dad on his birthday. That's how the world remembers Marvin Gaye. Shot dead by his dad on his birthday.

 

Well I remember it differently. I remember Marvin Gaye being shot dead by his dad on his birthday the day before my wedding. And I can tell you this, it very nearly never went ahead. And I still today curse that man for shooting his son the day before my wedding. Some people just don't think.

 

So, Jill, I am with you and Mrs Hardison is with you. Marvin isn't with you, his dad shot him.

Wacko Jacko is also not with them.

I got married on the 9th December 1980.

 

You didn't canel your wedding in honour of John Lennon? I am shocked. When I heard the news whilst cycling through the fog along Brambridge Lane, I nearly fell off my bike, I thought I had been hit by a lorry, I was that shocked. My absolute hero - DEAD.

Did you cancel your bike ride home or does life go on?

I had to cancel the milk the day I heard Rod Hull had fallen off a roof.

 

God that was a terrible day. My family is great friends with the Hull's and my wife and I were getting married that day after; having he wedding at his house. As you know, Rod fell off the roof fixing his TV aerial. Anyway, the family insisted we went ahead in memory of Rod. The wedding was sombre affair, but thanks to Rod's endeavours the reception was fantastic.

 

Ifankyou.

I was 3. I couldn't postpone my impending nuptials at that age.

Pancake I've had a sh!t day at work (subconsciously I expect I'm still suffering due to the death of Jacko) but anyway, this post has cheered me up no end.

 

Was Emu at the wedding? I hope not. I heard that Rods last words as he fell were "Emu, quick grab on to the gutter" but Emu just ignored him. Then, when on the ground Emu had the cheek to say, "well that's something we've got in common, neither of us can fly".

 

Cheeky bird.

I did not cancel my bike ride as I was en-route to work at Bishopstoke Precision Engineering, I had two thousand washers that required de-burring and dipping in 'trike' (sp) before the weekend.
