John_Lerwill Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Does anybody know much about leukaemia? I know there are various types but I don't have a clue about how long he might/would have been carrying this with him or what the percentage success rate of recovery is from it. ... I believe this is 'acute' leukaemia, which I understand from the medical people in my family that it is quite serious. I haven't gone into the business of recovery rates ... I (personally) feel very sad about this, but I can only say that (as with Muamba's case) it's perhaps a reminder of what is really important and perhaps it's also time to suspend (or stop) the vitriol against the club's management. Stan's condition may now create a positive climate and I wish him (if it's possible) a speedy recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stockport_Villain Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Just found out coming home. Feeling sick. Get well soon Stan, from all Villans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 McLeish has said he doesn't know if Stan will attend the game tomorrow. Regardless of whether he is or not all of us who are there need to let him know vocally that we are all behind him in this battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeVilla82 Posted March 30, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted March 30, 2012 Just read the messages from teammates (current and past) on Twitter - Chris Herd, Barry Bannan calling him things like "my hero", Friedel especially eloquent "my friend, you are one the best I have ever played with in all aspects of life. Fight on as I know you will." Made me shed a little tear. I was worried about the Chelsea game before this - now I don't care. Makes you realise what's important in life. He's 32 with 2 young kids. Really really hoping he makes it through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.V.F.C Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Stan went from everybody's scapegoat and unable to get a game, and responded with the players/supporters player of the year awards and fought his way to club captain. It is a remarkable story and turnaround. I know he'll beat this. Top pro and what a nice bloke, if people do a little research they'll see just how much charity work he does himself. He doesn't deserve this but he will beat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 As captains go he has been excellent for us when there's been all sorts of division in the dressing room and mess on and off the field. Wish him all the best for a full and speedy recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 A man who always gives his all for our cause and inspires nothing but good words from everybody he meets. Fight on Stan! This club stands shoulder to shoulder with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
