Tommy Wiseau Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Has anyone been down with the old laptop and shown him all these messages of support?

loveofthegame Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Sinky's own personal barman: I believe this was a different visit from the other pics of Rudi. He's been down 2-3 times. This is absolutely OUTSTANDING. I thought I couldn't love our club and Rudi any more, but this thread is unbelievable. As i've said before, i've known sinky (albeit not closely) since my very young days on Dickens Hearts. A funnier wee man you couldn't meet, whether he means to or not he's got a nack of making me laugh out loud! Don't give up the fight mate. Be great to see him at Tynie on Sunday. Edit: the games sunday, not sat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorgie blizzard Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I don't post on forums very often but I've got to say I'm blown away by all these pictures! I don't know Sinky personally however he sits not far away from me in the Wheatfield so I always see him going to and from his seat (I remember him walking up the steps carrying a teddy bear under his arm last season which caused much hilarity!!) - and I'm sure I've seen him getting chucked out an away ground more than once? He's some character and he is what every football club should have! Always makes us laugh with some of the things he comes out with during a match - which helped during some of the p**h we've had to put up with on the park in recent times! Anyway - as has been posted before, this is what makes us love and support this club - outstanding, and huge, huge respect out to all who have taken the time and effort to be there for him. Stick in there ma man ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMFC-1874 Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Well done sinky, you are a true legend not just for being a Hearts fan but showing how to fight and why it's worth fighting. anything someone might unfortunate have, may it be cancer or anything terminal. You sir are the Hero to them. Glad you can make it to the game. Let's hope it's a good one. Take care sinky and Mon the Hearts ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyphoonJambo Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I have lost 2 close uncles and one good mate to this horrible evil disease this year alone whilst my mum (the cousin of the late Bobby Kirk) continues to fight on after 2 courses of radiotherapy.If I have learn't anything throughout it, it is that the individuals suffering react fantasticly to the efforts of people like Rudi, the team and his friends who have arranged his trip to the game. Never, ever underestimate the positive effects that the slightest little bit of good news, the attentions of friends and family will have upon his moral. Never forget, the fantastic efforts of the Hospice staff and, just as importantly, the positive effect which the sentiment relayed within threads such as this have. You can't always beat this monster but it will, colectively have a massively positive effect. So keep it up everyone. I don't know you Sinky mate but stick in there and enjoy your time. Ogi, the very, very best of luck with your treatment as well. Proud as hell to be a Jambo!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Munch Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I was up at the marie curie seeing Sinky this afternoon. The wee man was in fine form & looking forward to getting to tyne on sat.. As said everythings arranged, even a meet & greet with all the players before the game too, so some good pics will come out of it also. His bed area is turning into something of a hearts shrine with everything he's received plus all the photos too.. Under the circumstances he's holding up well & still a great laugh but he's wheelchair bound now, so here's hoping heats can get that win, Rudi's promised him another goal... It would be fantastic if Sinky could get introduced at half time, And introduced to the fans. and the chant went up Sinky Sinky Gea Us a Wave. my thoughts are with you Sinky chin up, YOU WILL PULL THROUGH.

Munch Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 He's so humble that he does'nt want that, when we spoke to him about getting his pic took with all the team he said 'a just want ma programme signed'.. typical of not wanting any fuss made over him.. Rudi made his day & wee robbo was great with him too.. We'll see what sat brings, but he's got to have 2 medical people with him at tyne as he's arriving by ambulance in a wheel chair but they'll be at the game with him in case the wee man takes a turn for the worse. Fingers crossed he can see out the whole game & a hearts win.. Here's a wee video i took of him today.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgedZ7Vr6Qw I Hope he makes the game, All the best Sinky can you give the postal address for where he is at id like to send an all the best card to the wee man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibby1874 Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Ditto, from me. And as for Rudi, what can you say? Top guy! We were told my son (aged 12) had cancer on the 16th May 2006 a date i am sure you will all remember. In the next 2 and a bit bit years our proud club were great on a number of occasions. with the help of radio lollipop the brought the Scottish Cup in for Louis, Lee wallace arranged a signed shirt for him. At the end of 2008 the club was arranging a presentation before a home match. Before this could be arranged Louis lost his brave fight against this horrible illness in January 2010. Claire Cowan then arranged instead for our younger son to be a mascot. Claire has since supplied me with a signed shirt and match tickets for my fund raising events fot the Teenage Cancer Trust. All these thing help not just Louis to keep his spitits up but our family as well. It proves tha Heart of Midlothian is a great a proud club and is the reason we all love and support this team. All the best Sinky we all miss you and your Blue Docs at the mail centre, Keep your chin up and keep smiling. People like you and Louis inspire us all with the way you keep fight on with great dignty and not a complaint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
