That's what chemo and radio therapy does. They take you to the brink of death then they stop therapy. Wife had 27 sessions and only 6 left to go.

Please pray for my wife. She is in a coma after a cardiac arrest due to treatable throat cancer. I am devastated.

The ANC chief whip sure called Zuma's bluff by appointing Gordhan to the SOE portfolio committee. PG knows every cloudy deal that is and has happened in SOE's . So Z is back to square one and must be spitting fire.

I cannot chat as much as I used to as I am away from home and I have not had the time to research stocks this year. Perhaps I will start reprimanding my stocks in June and irritate you guys again.

Almost halfway. Done 13 radio therapies and 1 chemo. Doctors are surprised that she has no after effects from the treatment other than not being able to eat solid foods. No nausea, weakness, diarrhea, or hair loss that she should be having. She actually seems stronger now than she was before treatment started.
Next week she will have a stomach feeding tube installed. There is an option of having one via the nose or installed directly through the belly into the stomach. Of the ~ 200 head and neck cancer patients currently undergoing treatment, all the men opted for the nose one and all the women chose the belly one. Men have less tolerance for pain. As my wife said to the Doc...."If men get pregnant then families would only have 1 child".
We are renting this apartment from an Oncology Gastroenterologist who happens to work at the same hospital. Coincidence? The hospital is just across the road and our hospital in Viana also happens to be just across the road from our flat there. He is from Canada and our "family" Doc in Viana is also from Canada.
We had no idea of where this flat was other than in the same parish as the hospital.

Wonder why I'm still paying 15% DWT. I thought it went up to 20%.

Seems like traders decided to close that massive gap left by zar on Monday opening. It is now filed and hopefully will start gaining again.

The zar movement was large when Nene was removed as it was a surprise. The market was expecting for Gordhan to be removed so it had no real shock factor effect.

Moneyweb today:
CHARL BOTHA: I’m like a kid in a candy store at the moment, there are lots of opportunities now. The valuations on some of the stocks I’ve mentioned, Rolfes, Santova, Adapt IT we haven’t spoken about, Consolidated Infrastructure Group, if you can ignore the noise around the political sphere and so on I think you will do very well in the next three to five years buying these companies.
I hold both CIG (CIL) and ADI.
