Get well soon Charlie.
We know you're strong and you'll kick it.
I think to you because such news are always sad, but a lot of people (more and more)have such disease. I also have a thought to your relatives and friends because I know it's very difficult also for them.
BE STRONG,
we are waiting for you for next shows and you'll do them.
Bon courage |

He is THE coolest out of the Stones, overall - easily!
He'll be fine I reckon.. |

I'm sure I'm not the only one who lurks at other Stones Boards. One admin is reporting, per his inside sources, that the Stones are "sugar coating" the news and Charlie is far more ill than we have been led to believe.
If anyone here has ANY inside info..PLEASE share.
I want the truth...even if it is bad.
I feel like my world is coming to an end.

Saw the same story, which also mentions they won't tour next year. "Inside sources" are often right about selected pieces of information and not on others. It's happened lots of times.
I'm more happy to believe the story that kath posted on Shidoobee where one of Charlie's tentet (and she even mentioned the guy's name to me by e-mail) told her personally that Charlie was going to be ok, that radiotherapy is pretty much precautionary and wasn't worried about it. I consider kath a good source of info when it comes to Charlie.
The official press release even went as far as mentioning the band regrouping for recording sessions later in the year and touring in 2005. I don't think they needed to even tell us THAT much, but they did anyway. The fact that they relayed THAT information without being pressed on it is a good sign.

I was sipping my coffee while reading the Sunday paper when I turned to the "People In The News" column, and I literally started shaking when I saw the headline. This is sad beyond words . My heartfelt prayers and thoughts go out to Charlie and his family. If anyone can beat this horrible condition, I'd put my money on Charlie-he has the inner strength, dicipline, temperment, and love of millions of fans to overcome this.

I think it is not very decent to talk about touring or album recordings at this time. Charlie Watts is seriously ill and I don't think anyone should be concerned about "trivial" issues like touring or recording right now. At least I am not. The only thing that counts is that Charly will recover. The rest is totally unimportant. |

I agree with you, but thats not the point of what I just posted.
What I meant was the fact that the press release indicated that he had short term plans to work again with the band would suggest he's going to be fine. |

Charlie is going to make it through this. I have no qualms or bad feelings about it...and I can usually if not always trust my gut reaction.
My Mother had to have precautionary radiation treatments after her uterine cancer surgery. This is how they treat cancer oftentimes nowadays.
It all sounds good for Charlie from what I know about cancer in general.
He's lucky that they/he caught it early.
:-)
God Bless you Charlie Watts!
peace,
Martha

My Grandmother is 82 years old. She had a spot on her lung, and some cancerous polyps in her throat. She had surgery back in Feb. She had radiation & chemo in March. She only missed 3 days of work, and is back playing Bridge 3 nights a week. Except for a bum knee, she's the picture of health again.
Modern medicine is wonderous.
If my frail old Gram can beat throat AND lung cancer, so can Charlie Watts.
Best wishes Charles, I wish you well.

No. Others. I read Keno's post. He does end with the caveat that he doesn't know Charlie's doctors & they're the ones who really know his prognosis. It doesn't look good for an album or even a tour at this point. |
