“I'm truly grateful for your support and encouragement which made a real difference and gave me a much-needed boost to cope with the treatment challenges in particular.
“Have recovered well and am now looking forward to 2024 with great optimism, enthusiasm and renewed energy and with new goals to pursue.
“I wish everyone a very happy and healthy year ahead and hope that you will have similar support from your friends as I received in dealing with any adversity that may come your way. Happy New Year everyone,” he said.
